Translation of the song Buena Vida artist Daddy Yankee
Buena Vida
The Good Life
[Verso 1: Natti Natasha]
[Verse 1: Natti Natasha]
Se fue, la marea subió y se fue
It's gone, the tide has come and gone
No lo busquen que hasta ahora ya ni se ve
Don't go looking for it 'cause by now you can't even see it anymore
Arriba de las nubes va un avión con mi merca
Above the clouds flies a plane with my goods
Soy dueña de los sueños, cuando paso ellos tiemblan
I'm the owner of dreams, they tremble as I pass by
[Coro: Natti Natasha]
[Chorus: Natti Natasha]
Buena vida, me quiero dar buena vida
The good life, I want to give myself the good life
Aunque me cueste la vida
Even if it costs me my life
Y me digan que no es de verdad
And they tell me it's not real
Buena vida, me quiero dar buena vida
The good life, I want to give myself the good life
Aunque me cueste la vida
Even if it costs me my life
Y me digan que no es de verdad
And they tell me it's not real
[Verso 2: Natti Natasha]
[Verse 2: Natti Natasha]
Me dijo: Ven, chiquitita que aquí estás bien
He told me, Come, little girl, you're alright here
Yo te vo' a cuidar, ya tu lobo te va a comer
I'll take care of you, your wolf is going to eat you up now
Debajo corre un tren con mi merca
Down below runs a train with my goods
Del cielo cae mi nieve y un sol me calienta
My snow falls from the sky and a sun warms me
[Coro: Natti Natasha & Daddy Yankee]
[Chorus: Natti Natasha & Daddy Yankee]
Buena vida, me quiero dar buena vida
The good life, I want to give myself the good life
Aunque me cueste la vida
Even if it costs me my life
Y me digan que no es de verdad (the Big Boss)
And they tell me it's not real (the Big Boss)
Buena vida, me quiero dar buena vida (jefe)
The good life, I want to give myself the good life (boss)
Aunque me cueste la vida (negocios siempre)
Even if it costs me my life (deals forever)
Y me digan que no es de verdad (money, je-jefe)
And they tell me it's not real (money, bo-boss)
[Verso 3: Daddy Yankee]
[Verse 3: Daddy Yankee]
Siquilero, vi que desde mi país al extranjero, la droga es lo más que hace dinero
I'm a trafficker, I've seen that both in my country and abroad, drugs are what make the most money
Suplidor de una fina mercancía
A supplier of fine merchandise
Mi nómina está en los políticos y la policía (wuh, wuh, wuh)
My salary comes from politicians and the police (whoo, whoo, whoo)
Yo desistiera si mi producto no tuviera demanda (money)
I'd quit if my product had no demand (money)
Si tú me tiras vela bien dónde andas
If you shoot me, watch carefully where you're going
Compuesta artillería siempre suena mi banda, brrrr, oh yeah
My gang always fires compound artillery, brrrr, oh yeah
Mansiones como Versace
Mansions like Versace
Carro' 'el año, o de aviones, mujeres y mariachis, wuh
This year's cars, boats, planes, ladies and mariachis, whoo
Resucitaré en cada vela de la misa
I'll come back to life within every candle at mass
Después de mi muerta será la moda mi camisa
After I die, my shirt will come into style
[Coro: Natti Natasha & Daddy Yankee]
[Chorus: Natti Natasha & Daddy Yankee]
Buena vida (soy ley), me quiero dar buena vida
The good life (I'm a legend), I want to give myself the good life
Aunque me cueste la vida
Even if it costs me my life
Y me digan que no es de verdad ('toy viviendo bien baby)
And they tell me it's not real (I'm living well baby)
Buena vida, me quiero dar buena vida (heh)
The good life, I want to give myself the good life (hey)
Aunque me cueste la vida (la tuya también)
Even if it costs me my life (and yours as well)
Y me digan que no es de verdad (money, je-jefe)
And they tell me it's not real (money, bo-boss)
[Verso 4: Daddy Yankee]

Siquilero, siquilero, mi misión; hacer dinero
I'm a trafficker, a trafficker, my mission's to make money
Un capo con sangre de guerrero (¡su!)
A capo with the blood of a warrior
Siquilero lo que subo, un trabajo por los cielos
I'm a trafficker, when I left a job up into the skies
Tripico las ganancias por el suelo
I triple my gains down on the ground
Siquilero, siquilero, mi misión; hacer dinero
I'm a trafficker, a trafficker, my mission's to make money
Un capo con sangre de guerrero (no)
A capo with the blood of a warrior
Muere uno pero nacen cien al año
One bites the dust but a hundred more are born each year
Y me vo' a dar buena vida aunque esta vida sea un engaño
And I'm going to give myself the good life even if this life is a hoax
[Coro: Natti Natasha]
[Chorus: Natti Natasha]
Buena vida, me quiero dar buena vida
The good life, I want to give myself the good life
Aunque me cueste la vida
Even if it costs me my life
Y me digan que no es de verdad
And they tell me it's not real
Buena vida, me quiero dar buena vida
The good life, I want to give myself the good life
Aunque me cueste la vida
Even if it costs me my life
Y me digan que no es de verdad
And they tell me it's not real
