[Verso 1]
[Verse 1]
Buenas tardes doña Eva, ¿cómo le va?
Good afternoon doña Eva, how are you?
Tiene un minuto que me pueda regalar
Do you have a minute you can spare me
Hay algo de lo que yo le quisiera hablar
There's something I'd like to talk to you about
Y espero que me pueda escuchar
And I hope you can listen to me
Usted sabe que su hija la menor
You know that your youngest daughter
Desde hace tiempo lleva una relación (conmigo)
Has had a relationship for a while (with me)
Cómo le explico sin que me lo tome a mal
How do I explain it without you taking it the wrong way
Con la noticia que le tengo que dar
With the news I have to give you
Señora lo que tengo que decirle es
Ma'am what I have to tell you is
[Coro]
[Chorus]
Que va a ser abuela
That you're going to be a grandmother
De un excelente papá y a esa criatura, nada le faltará
Of an excellent dad and that child will lack nothing
Que va a ser abuela
That you're going to be a grandmother
De un excelente papá y a esa criatura, nada le faltará
Of an excellent dad and that child will lack nothing

Señora
Ma'am
Tiene todo el derecho de molestarse, oh, conmigo
You have every right to get upset, oh, with me
Sé que soy muy joven y uno comete errores
I know I'm very young and one makes mistakes
Pero a esto a cualquiera le puede pasar
But this can happen to anyone
Hoy se lo prometo, le doy mi palabra, que no le fallaré
Today I promise you, I give you my word, that I won't fail you
Yo me haré cargo de su hija y del niño que no le falte nada
I'll take care of your daughter and the baby so nothing is missing
Lo criaré con mucho amor y respeto
I'll raise him with a lot of love and respect
Para que salga un hombre hecho y derecho
So he turns out a proper man
Y ya, cálmese señora, no me arme un pleito
And now, calm down ma'am, don't start a fight with me
Y ya, recuerde que al fin y al cabo es su nieto
And now, remember that in the end he's your grandson
[Coro]
[Chorus]
Que va a ser abuela
That you're going to be a grandmother
De un excelente papá y a esa criatura, nada le faltará
Of an excellent dad and that child will lack nothing
Que va a ser abuela
That you're going to be a grandmother
De un excelente papá y a esa criatura, nada le faltará
Of an excellent dad and that child will lack nothing
Que va a ser abuela
That you're going to be a grandmother
De un excelente papá y a esa criatura, nada le faltará
Of an excellent dad and that child will lack nothing
Que va a ser abuela
That you're going to be a grandmother
De un excelente papá y a esa criatura, nada le faltará
Of an excellent dad and that child will lack nothing

Released in 2012 (early-year single, then album on May 22) on TMPR: The Most Powerful Rookie (Carbon Fiber Music), 'Va a Ser Abuela' is produced by D'Lesly 'Dice' Lora — a producer also linked to urban bachata. On a mostly urban album, this romantic 128 BPM track became a dancefloor classic.

Artist
