Maluma - Hawái (English Translation)
Stop lying to yourself (Ah)
The picture you posted with him saying that he was your heaven
Baby, I know you so well, I know it was to make me jealous
I won't tell you who, but they saw you crying for me
They saw you for me
[Pre-Chorus]
Let me tell you
It looks like he treats you well, that he's such a gentleman
But that won't change the fact that I was first
I know that you'll do well, but he doesn't love you like I love you
[Chorus]
It could be that you're missing nothing, nothing apparently
Vacation in Hawaii, I congratulate you
What you're posting on Instagram is very cute
So that I see how you're doing, so that I see
It could be that you're missing nothing, nothing apparently
Vacation in Hawaii, I congratulate you
What you're posting on Instagram is very cute
So that I see how good you're doing, but you're doing badly
Because love isn't bought with anything
[Verse]
Lie to all your followers
Tell him that the times are better now
I don't think that you'll ignore me if I call you
'Cause after me, there won't be any more loves
You and I were one
We'd do it on an empty stomach before breakfast
We'd smoke hookah and I'd pass you the smoke
And now in this war no one wins
If you ask me, it's no one's fault
Sometimes problems can accumulate for people
Let me speak, please, don't interrupt me
If I did something bad, then forgive me
People will believe you, you play that role well
Baby, but you're not happy with him
It could be that you're missing nothing, nothing apparently
Vacation in Hawaii, I congratulate you
What you're posting on Instagram is very cute
So that I see how you're doing, so that I see
It could be that you're missing nothing, nothing apparently
Vacation in Hawaii, I congratulate you
What you're posting on Instagram is very cute
So that I see how good you're doing, but you're doing badly
Because love isn't bought with anything
[Outro]
(Stop lying to yourself)
(The picture you posted with him saying that he was your heaven)
Mamacita
(Baby, I know you so well, I know it was to make me jealous)
Maluma, baby
(I won't tell you who, but they saw you crying for me)
Hahahaha
(They saw you for me)

It’s amazing to see how much people are embracing this song that it is quickly becoming a solid hit single! I can’t thank my fans enough for this.

This is one of my favorite tracks. It was written [by several of Maluma’s longtime collaborators] in a song camp in Hawaii. Then the song reached [songwriter/producer] Edgar Barrera and she showed it to me. I fell in love with the intro chorus and I wrote the verse. When I finished recording I called my management and said: “Boys, I have the first single.” And that was the beginning of this Papi Juancho project. It was one of the few songs I recorded before Covid. And it’s a very real song, very from the heart, with good lyrics, and good content. Truth is, I get bored of the same old reggaeton. It’s good to add lyrical content to the songs.
