¿Cómo llegó este momento?
El año pasa volando
Pero este mes siempre se va lento
Pasa serio y amenazando
El cielo está oscureciendo
Y el viento ya está soplando
El mar se va enfureciendo
Y la montaña rezando
Ey, 'tá empezando a llover
Otra ve' va a pasar
Por ahí viene tormenta
Viene temporal
'Tá empezando a llover
Otra ve' va a pasar
Por ahí viene tormenta
¿Quién nos va a salvar?
Y que Dios proteja a Borinquen
En el nombre del Padre, del Hijo
Y del Espíritu Santo
Que Dios cuide mi canto
No quiero toldo, quiero su manto, ey
Obviamente la luz se va a ir
Sabrá Dios y nunca va a volver
El puente que tardaron en construir
El río crecío' lo va a romper
Par de cancione' guardá' en el cel
Pa' cuando se vaya la señal
La señal ya se dio y no la quieren ver
Falta que el boricua quiera despertar
No olviden la viejita de allí
Que vive sola, hay que irla a ayudar
Recuerden que to' somo' de aquí
Al pueblo el pueblo le toca salvar
Con el gobierno no me envíen na'
Que esos cabrone' lo van a esconder
Van pa' la calle, pa' fotos na' má'
Por mi toditos se pueden joder
Fueron cinco mil que dejaron morir
Y eso nunca se nos va a olvidar
La palma en la que quieren ahorcar el país
Un día de estos la vamo' a tumbar
Y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá que no venga
Y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá que no venga
Y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá que no venga
Que no venga, pero
'Tá empezando a llover
Otra ve' va a pasar
Por ahí viene tormenta
Quizás huracán
'Tá empezando a llover
Otra ve' va a pasar
Por ahí viene tormenta
¿Quién nos va a salvar?
Dime si la quiere' pasar conmigo
Dime si la quiere' pasar conmigo
Dime si la quiere' pasar conmigo, eh
Pa' no dormir solito'
Dormir abrazao'
A mí na' me da miedo
Si tú 'tás a mi la'o
Prende una velita
Pa' ver tu carita
Antes de acostarme
'Toy esperando a que salga el sol
A que salga el sol
Va a salir el sol, ah
'Toy esperando a que salga el sol
A que salga el sol
Va a salir el sol

Bad Bunny - Una Velita Lyrics
Official
How did this moment come?
The year flies by
But this month always goes slow
It passes serious and threatening
The sky is darkening
And the wind is already blowing
The sea is becoming furious
And the mountain is praying
Hey, it's starting to rain
It's going to happen again
A storm is coming
A temporal is coming
It's starting to rain
It's going to happen again
A storm is coming
Who will save us?
And may God protect Borinquen
In the name of the Father, the Son
And the Holy Spirit
May God take care of my song
I don't want a tent, I want His cloak, hey
Obviously, the light is going to go out
Only God knows if it will ever return
The bridge that took so long to build
The river has risen and will break it
A couple of songs saved on my phone
For when the signal goes out
The signal has already been given and they don't want to see it
It's up to the Puerto Rican to wake up
Don't forget the old lady over there
Who lives alone, we need to go help her
Remember we all belong here
The people need to save the people
Don't send me anything from the government
Because those bastards are going to hide it
They go out into the street, just for photos
They can all go to hell for me
They let five thousand die
And we will never forget that
The palm tree they want to hang the country from
One day we're going to knock it down
And hopefully, hopefully, hopefully, hopefully it doesn't come
And hopefully, hopefully, hopefully, hopefully it doesn't come
And hopefully, hopefully, hopefully, hopefully it doesn't come
That it doesn't come, but
It's starting to rain
It's going to happen again
A storm is coming
Maybe a hurricane
It's starting to rain
It's going to happen again
A storm is coming
Who will save us?
Tell me if you want to spend it with me
Tell me if you want to spend it with me
Tell me if you want to spend it with me, eh
So I won't sleep alone
Sleep hugging
I'm not afraid
If you're by my side
Light a little candle
To see your face
Before I go to bed
I'm waiting for the sun to come out
For the sun to come out
The sun is going to come out, ah
I'm waiting for the sun to come out
For the sun to come out
The sun is going to come out
The year flies by
But this month always goes slow
It passes serious and threatening
The sky is darkening
And the wind is already blowing
The sea is becoming furious
And the mountain is praying
Hey, it's starting to rain
It's going to happen again
A storm is coming
A temporal is coming
It's starting to rain
It's going to happen again
A storm is coming
Who will save us?
And may God protect Borinquen

¿Cómo llegó este momento?
El año pasa volando
Pero este mes siempre se va lento
Pasa serio y amenazando
El cielo está oscureciendo
Y el viento ya está soplando
El mar se va enfureciendo
Y la montaña rezando
Ey, 'tá empezando a llover
Otra ve' va a pasar
Por ahí viene tormenta
Viene temporal
'Tá empezando a llover
Otra ve' va a pasar
Por ahí viene tormenta
¿Quién nos va a salvar?
Y que Dios proteja a Borinquen
En el nombre del Padre, del Hijo
Y del Espíritu Santo
Que Dios cuide mi canto
No quiero toldo, quiero su manto, ey
Obviamente la luz se va a ir
Sabrá Dios y nunca va a volver
El puente que tardaron en construir
El río crecío' lo va a romper
Par de cancione' guardá' en el cel
Pa' cuando se vaya la señal
La señal ya se dio y no la quieren ver
Falta que el boricua quiera despertar
No olviden la viejita de allí
Que vive sola, hay que irla a ayudar
Recuerden que to' somo' de aquí
Al pueblo el pueblo le toca salvar
Con el gobierno no me envíen na'
Que esos cabrone' lo van a esconder
Van pa' la calle, pa' fotos na' má'
Por mi toditos se pueden joder
Fueron cinco mil que dejaron morir
Y eso nunca se nos va a olvidar
La palma en la que quieren ahorcar el país
Un día de estos la vamo' a tumbar
Y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá que no venga
Y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá, y ojalá que no venga
