Vivir Mi Vida (Live My Life)
Marc Anthony
Voy a reír, voy a bailar
Vivir mi vida, la-la-la-la
Voy a reír, voy a gozar
Vivir mi vida, la-la-la-la
I'm going to laugh, I'm going to dance
Live my life, la-la-la-la
I'm going to laugh, I'm going to enjoy
Live my life, la-la-la-la

Marc Anthony’s “Vivir Mi Vida” is a jubilant anthem that shouts one simple message: live your life now! The lyrics turn every setback into a reason to smile, reminding us that rain can cleanse old wounds and even a single drop of hope can end a drought of sadness. With the infectious refrain “voy a reír, voy a bailar” (“I’m going to laugh, I’m going to dance”), the song invites listeners to trade tears for laughter, fear for celebration, and regrets for forward motion. By urging us to seize the moment, listen to our inner voice, and keep moving ahead without looking back, “Vivir Mi Vida” transforms pain into rhythm and everyday life into a joyful fiesta, making it both a personal pep-talk and a universal call to dance through whatever comes our way.

Corazón (Heart)
Maluma, Nego do Borel
Tú me partiste el corazón
Pero mi amor no hay problema
Ahora puedo regalar
Un pedacito a cada nena, solo un pedacito
You broke my heart
But my love there is no problem
Now I can give
A little piece to each girl, only a little piece
El Perdedor (The Loser)
Enrique Iglesias, Marco Antonio Solís
Qué más quieres de mí
Si el pasado está a prueba de tu amor
Y no tengo el valor
De escapar para siempre del dolor
What more do you want from me
If the past is proof of your love
And I don't have the courage
To escape forever from the pain
Loco (Crazy)
Enrique Iglesias, Romeo Santos
Te pido de rodillas
Luna no te vayas
Alumbrale la noche a ese corazón
Desilusionado, a veces maltratado
I beg you on my knees
Moon, don't go
Light the night that heart
Disillusioned, sometimes mistreated
El Perdón (The forgiveness)
Nicky Jam, Enrique Iglesias
Dime si es verdad
Me dijeron que te estas casando
Tú no sabes lo que estoy sufriendo
Esto te lo tengo que decir
Tell me if it's true
They told me that you're getting married
You don't know that I'm suffering
I have to tell you this
De Una Vez (At once)
Selena Gomez
Ya no duele como antes, no
La herida de tu amor sanó
De una vez por todas
Soy más fuerte sola
It doesn't hurt anymore like before, no
The wound of your love healed
Once and for all
I am stronger alone
Darte un Beso (Give you a Kiss)
Prince Royce
Amarte como te amo es complicado
Pensar como te pienso es un pecado
Mirar como te miró está prohibido
Tocarte como quiero es un delito
To love you how I love you is complicated
To think how I think about you is a sin
To look how I look at you is forbidden
To touch you how I want is a crime
Sofia
Alvaro Soler
Sueño cuando era pequeño
Sin preocupación en el corazón
Sigo viendo aquel momento
Se desvaneció, desapareció
I dream when I was little
Without concern in my heart
I continue seeing that moment
It vanished, it disappeared
Llegaste Tú (You Arrived)
CNCO, Prince Royce
Dejé de creer
Me hizo un indolente, un mujeriego
Dejé de creer en el amor
Dejé de sentir
I stopped believing
I became indolent, a womanizer
I stopped believing in love
I stopped feeling
Volar (To fly)
Lele Pons, Susan Díaz, Victor Cardenas
Sabes que amarme siempre ha sido solo un juego
Dices te quiero y no te creo
Porque lo nuestro nunca ha sido amor del bueno
Solo me se sufrir
You know that loving me has always been just a game
You say I love you and I don't believe you
Because ours has never been good love
I only know how to suffer
Selfish Love (Selfish love)
Selena Gomez, DJ Snake
Nadie tiene que decírmelo
Hablas con otra que no soy yo
Y te confieso que viéndolo
Baby, me dan ganas de tenerte
Nobody has to tell me
You talk to another who is not me
And I confess that seeing it
Baby, it makes me want to have you
Pasado (Past)
Carmen DeLeon, Cali Y El Dandee
Como quiero volverte a ver
No volverte a perder
Como si fuera ayer
Bailando a tu lado
How I want to see you again
Not to lose you again
Like it was yesterday
Dancing by your side
Deja vu
Prince Royce, Shakira
Tú me abriste las heridas
Que ya daba por curadas con limón, tequila y sal
Una historia repetida
Solamente un déjà-vu que nunca llega a su final
You opened my wounds
That I already considered cured with lemon, tequila and salt
A repeated history
Just a déjà-vu that never reaches its end
Cúrame (Cure me)
Prince Royce, Manuel Turizo
Dime como puedo esperarte
Si otra vez te quiero probar
Es algo obvio que eres mi adicción
Cúrame, cúrame mujer
Tell me how I can wait for you
If again I want to try you
It's something obvious that you're my addiction
Cure me, cure me woman
Cuando Me Enamoro (When I Fall In Love)
Enrique Iglesias, Juan Luis Guerra
Si pudiera bajarte una estrella del cielo
Lo haría sin pensarlo dos veces
Porque te quiero
Y hasta un lucero
If I could lower you a star from the sky
I would do it without thinking two times
Because I love you
And even a star
Adiós (Goodbye)
Selena Gomez
Ya me dijeron tus amigas
Que no querías saber de mí
Y ya no extrañas la rutina
Que tu vida va mejor sin mí
Your friends already told me
That you didn't want to know about me
You don't miss the routine anymore
That your life is better without me
No Hay Nadie Más (There's nobody else)
Sebastián Yatra
Recuerdo aquel día como si fuera hoy
No hay nada como ella, ni siquiera me encontró
Recuerdo todavía la vez que la besé
Fue mi primer amor y ahora escribo su canción
I remember that day as if it were today
There's nothing like her, she didn't even find me
I remember still the time I kissed her
She was my first love and now I'm writing her song
Corazon Sin Cara (Heart Without Face)
Prince Royce
Y ya me contaron
Que te acomplejas de tu imagen
Y mira el espejo
Que linda eres sin maquillaje
And they already told me
That you're insecure about your looks
And look in the mirror
How beautiful you are without makeup
Si Una Vez (If I Once)
Selena
Yo te di todo mi amor y más
Y tú no reconoces ni lo que es amar
Yo me puse dispuesta a tus pies
Y tan solo con desprecio me has pagado pero ahora ve
I gave you all my love and more
And you don't even recognize what it is to love
I put myself ready at your feet
And only with contempt you have paid me but now go
LA FAMA (FAME)
ROSALÍA, The Weeknd
Lo que pasó
A ti te lo cuento
No creas que no dolió
O que me lo invento
What happened
I'll tell you
Don't think that it didn't hurt
Or that I invent it
Te Vas (You go)
Ozuna
Ya ni duermo
Al saber que a mi lado no estás
Noches de llanto
Preguntándole a la vida si volverás
I don't even sleep anymore
Knowing that you're not by my side
Nights of crying
Asking life if you will return
La Cintura (The Waist)
Alvaro Soler
Destaca cuando anda
Va causando impresión
Cada día cuando levanta
Brilla como el sol
She stands out when she walks
She's making an impression
Every day when she gets up
She shines like the sun
Amor de Febrero (February Love)
Jay Wheeler
No sé qué sería de mí
Si algún día te pierdo
No me conformaría
Con solo vivir con tu recuerdo
I don't know what would become of me
If some day I lose you
I wouldn't settle
With only living with your memory
