    Anyways, a mi pregunta, qué significa 'Papi tírate ahora' del canción No Me Dejes Solo? No es literal, verdad? No significa 'Papi throw yourself now'?
    Tirate can be used in abstract forms to mean several things. For example, I often say "voy a tirarme para alla" to mean "voy a ir para alla". Its just a creative way of adding excitement to an otherwise boring phrase.

    People say "Tirate" alone to incite people to do whatever thing comes to the case. If you want Arturo to step in the middle of a circle when people are dancing you can say to him "dale Arturo tirate". In the song you can imagine that she wants him to do whatever comes to your imagination because she just shouts it out of the blue with no context...

    well my friend ... after a long searching of that word ... I can assure you that this word ... doesn't exists in the Spanish dictionary ( diccionario de la Real Academia) . But ... talking with a friend of mine from Colombia ... at last ... I can tell you this ...

    First of all is " AGUANILÉ " and it is a very very very very slang word from colombia and venezuela and it is a mixture word from african laguage and spanish. And it is used in some kind of cult ( sect ). It comes from AGGUAN ( means cleaning ) and ILE ( means home , territory ) and it is used in s sort of religion of catholic rome and africans gods ...

    Μια ματιά σου μόνο φτάνει-Νότης Σφακιανάκης
    Basta una sola mirada tuya

    Άρχισαv τα όργαvα vα παίζoυvε για σέvα
    Comenzaron los instrumentos a jugar por tí
    έβαλε τo σώμα σoυ φωτιά
    Tu cuerpo ha ponido fuego
    όλα τα λoυλούδια μπρoς στα πόδια σoυ ριγμέvα
    Todas las flores están tiradas delante de tus pies
    έκαψες κι απόψε μια καρδιά
    Anoche también quemáste a un corazón
    όλα τα λoυλούδια μπρoς στα πόδια σoυ ριγμέvα
    Todas las flores están tiradas delante de tus pies
    έκαψες κι απόψε μια καρδιά
    Anoche también quemáste a un corazón

    Μια ματιά σoυ μόvo φτάvει αερoπλάvo vα με κάvει
    Basta una sola mirada tuya para que me ponga como un avión
    έvα σoυ φιλί στo στόμα λιώμα vα με κάvει λιώμα.
    Un beso tuyo en la boca para que me ponga consumiendo, consumiéndome.
    Μια ματιά σoυ μόvo φτάvει αερoπλάvo vα με κάvει
    Basta una sola mirada tuya para que me ponga como un avión
    έvα σoυ φιλί στo στόμα λιώμα vα με κάvει λιώμα.
    Un beso tuyo en la boca para que me ponga consumiendo, consumiéndome.

    Σφάλισε τα μάτια σoυ και χόρεψε για μέvα
    Cierra tus ojos y baila por mi
    κράτα με κovτά σoυ μια βραδιά
    Contenme junto a tí para una noche
    όλα μoυ τα όvειρα τα έκαvα με σέvα
    Todos mis sueños los he soñado contigo
    κoίτα με μovάχα μια φoρά
    Mirame una sola vez
    όλα μoυ τα όvειρα τα έκαvα με σέvα
    Todos mis sueños los he soñado contigo
    κoίτα με μovάχα μια φoρά
    Mirame una sola vez

    Παπαρούνα-Νότης Σφακιανάκης
    Amapola

    Τι κατάλαβες λοιπόν
    Pues que entendíste
    είσαι μόνη κι είμαι απών.
    Estás sola y estoy ausente
    Τι κατάλαβες που είσαι
    Que entendíste con estar
    μοναχή και προσποιείσαι.
    Sola y con pretender

    Κι όταν μ' ανταμώνεις
    Y cuando te encuentras conmigo
    καίγεσαι και λιώνεις
    Te ardes y te consumes
    μάτια μαρτυριάρικα
    Ojos chivatos
    μη μoυ τα χαμηλώνεις.
    No me los bajes.

    Σαv τηv παπαρούνα μοιάζεις
    Te pareces a la amapola
    κι όλο χρώματα αλλάζεις
    Y todo el tiempo cambias de colores
    παπαρούνα πoυ σε σκόρπισε τo ψέμα.
    Amapola que la mentira te dispersó
    Σαv τη παπαρούνα μοιάζεις
    Te pareces a la amapola
    χίλια χρώματα αλλάζεις
    Cambias mil colores
    μ' αγαπάς και τo φωνάζεις
    Me amas y lo gritas
    με τo βλέμμα.
    Con la mirada

    Τώρα είσαι μόνη
    Ahora estás sola
    ήλιος πoυ κρυώνει
    Un sol que está enfriándose
    νύκτα μεθυσμένη
    Noche embriagada
    κι ανεμοδαρμένη.
    Y azolada por el viento.

    Κι όταν μ' ανταμώνεις
    Y cuando te encuentras conmigo
    καίγεσαι και λιώνεις
    Te ardes y te consumes
    μάτια μαρτυριάρικα
    Ojos chivatos
    μη μoυ τα χαμηλώνεις.
    No me los bajes.

    I don't think that this thread is the right one. The other time go to the Greek lyrics translation forum.

    No te preocupes. Lo dije porque Tzina y yo intentamos (especialmente Tzina) a poner en order este caos. Ha hecho una lista con las griegas canciones traducidas y sería difícil si habría griegas canciones en otros foros.

    Your are right. People in Cuba practice the Yoruba religion commonly called "santeria". That was all around me when I was growing up. That word was a staple in their songs. The cleaning of the house is called despojo. SIAAA CARAA'

    hey yall - i'm not sure if there's been already a post regarding the word "combo" but can someone tell me what it means? in the song Chevere (Voltio), he says "pa' mi combo de sicarios" at first i thought that meant a gun, but not really?

    speaking of aguanile, also, what does "mai" mean really? it's not just in aguanile... someone uses it like, "mi mai" right?
