Diego Torres: Color Esperanza = Color of Hope

Una de mis canciones favoritas. This is one of my favorite songs. Every time I hear it, it fills me up with hope and a sense courage to try and try because anything is possible. The beat is so inspiring and it makes you ready to take on the world with the color of hope on your face. Enjoy!

I know what's in your eyes when you look
You are tired of going and going
And always in the same place
Walking in circles

I know that windows can be opened
Changing the air depends on you
It will help you, it’s worth trying one more time

To know that it’s possible
To want it to be possible
To get rid of fears, put them aside
Painting your face the color of hope
To try our future with heart

Is better to get lost than to never embark
Better to try and keep trying
Even though you know is not easy to start

I know that the impossible can be achieved
That sadness will one day leave
And that’s how it will be
Life changes and it will always change

You will feel that your soul flies
To sing one more time

To know that it’s possible
To want it to be possible
To get rid of fears, put them aside
Painting your face the color of hope
To try our future with heart

To know that it’s possible
To want it to be possible
To get rid of fears, put them aside
Painting your face the color of hope
To try our future with heart

It’s worth more to shine
Then to only look to see the sun

Painting your face the colors of hope
To try our future with heart

To know that it’s possible
To want it to be possible
To get rid of fears, put them aside
Painting your face the color of hope
To try our future with heart

Enrique Iglesias (feat. Descemer Bueno & Gente De Zona) : Bailando = Dancing

I love this song. I love the beat and how the words just flow with such a swag when the hook comes up. It makes me feel sexy and I want to start dancing. I never heard of this group before, but I really like their style. One of my favorite songs at this time. Bailando!! Enjoy


I look at you and my breathing stops
When you look at me my heart flies high
(my heart beats very slow)
And in silence your stare says a million words
The night when I beg for the sun to not come up

(Dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing)
Your body and mine making empty whole
Moving up and down (moving up and down)
(dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing)
The fire inside is driving me crazy
I’m overwhelmed

With your physique, your chemistry and your anatomy
The beers, tequila and your mouth with mine
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more),
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more)
With this melody, your color, your fantasy
With your philosophy my head is empty
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more),
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more)

I want to be with you
Live with you
Dance with you
Have with you
One crazy night (One crazy night)
Kiss your lips (And kiss your lips)
I want to be with you
Live with you
Dance with you
Have with you
One crazy night (One crazy night)
With a crazy one
(Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh)

You look at me and I’m in another dimension
(I’m in another dimension)
Your heartbeat accelerates my heart
(Your heartbeat accelerates my heart)
How ironic is destiny when I can’t touch you
Hug you and feel the magic of your scent

(Dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing)
Your body and mine making empty whole
Moving up and down (moving up and down)
(dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing)
The fire inside is driving me crazy
I’m overwhelmed

With your physique, your chemistry and your anatomy
The beers, tequila and your mouth with mine
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more),
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more)
With this melody, your color, your fantasy
With your philosophy my head is empty
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more),
I can’t do it no more, (I can’t do it no more)

I want to be with you
Live with you
Dance with you
Have with you
One crazy night (One crazy night)
Kiss your lips (And kiss your lips)
I want to be with you
Live with you
Dance with you
Have with you
One crazy night (One crazy night)
With a crazy one

(Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh)
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh
Ooooh dancing love ooooh
Dancing love oooh that is how pain goes away
Ooooh

Gilberto Santa Rosa - Sin Voluntad = Unwilling

I recently purchased Omar Alfanno's De Panama Para El Mundo, which is a recorded concert with his most famous songs live from the Old Panama City ruins in Panama City, Panama; the country that that saw him grow. He is one of Salsa's best song writers in history and I made a little pact with myself. I'm going to use my page to translate all of his songs. This song made Gilberto Santa Rosa a legend. Feels like the song was made for him. Writing, Poetry on Salsa. Enjoy!


A tender touch, slow music
The afternoon falls to sleep on your hair
You are so beautiful
And you know it

Everything has changed, I’m not what I was
Never thought I could love this way
So fascinating

The more I try to tear you off my being
I can’t
I don’t know what is going on with my dignity
I hurt myself for no reason when I try
That is why I’m back to ask you for more

More of this love that gives life
More of that light in your stare
There are more than enough reasons to move away
But honestly
I lack the will

More of that peace that agitates me
More of that sweet walk
I know its not good to love you so much
But honestly
I lack the will

To deny you a kiss
To let you go
To deny you the sky
I lack the will


Hook: This love leaves me unwilling, without strength
Without will, without strength to fight.
It leaves me a love that gives life and torments me

Hook: This love leaves me unwilling, without strength
I have more than enough reasons to move away
But your love leaves my soul defend less

Hook: This love leaves me unwilling, without strength
This love, that is pain and fantasy deserves happiness and hope.

Hook: This love leaves me unwilling, without strength
That drags me, it takes me and leaves me at the end
Without strength
Unwilling
