  1. Mami Tus Ojos Te Delatan (Mami your eyes give you away)
  2. Y En La Cara Se Te Ve (And on your face they see)
  3. Tu Eres Una Sata Y Yo Se Lo Que Quieres..Aoohh! (You are a ???? and I know what you want)
  4. Es Hora Que Te Pongas Fresca (It's time to get yourself fresh)
  5. Enseña Pa Ver, No Te Pongas Tímida Que Vas Hacer (Teach in order to see, don't be shy about what you are going to do)

Por favor, correctame mis errores.

Well Enseña isn't in the tú form like the previous verses, so I guess it's something else that teaches to see. Still doesn't make sense to me. - SlimNm, Jun 27, 2013

Sata means a flirt, a tease, but stronger.

Mami your eyes give you away

And in the face you see

You are a sata (a tease)

I know what you want

And It's Time

That you get fresh...

Then your translation for 'Enseña Pa Ver' (because I don't know it)

Do not be shy that you do

Finalmente yo sé lo que quiere decir 'sata'! (Do I use 'lo que' here or 'que'?) - SlimNm, Jun 27, 2013
I am still a beginner in Spanish. Hopefully someone will answer your other questions. - 0083f5dc, Jun 27, 2013

Verse means to show or it is used to describe how something looks.

Se ve= it shows

Se te ve= it shows on you

Se le ve= it shows on her/him

Do a google search using these terms and you will see them used in context.

Edit for spelling.

"Y en la cara se te ve" means "and it shows on your face."

Awesome, thank you. I use the translations of others on the internet for lyrics. I am never sure about them. What about 'Enseña Pa' Ver"? - 0083f5dc, Jun 27, 2013
What's the most literal translation you can make, though? Isn't it On your face, themselves, you, the eyes see? I don't see how "it shows on your face" can be derived from that. - SlimNm, Jun 27, 2013

I looked up Pa'. It is slang. It is short for para. It can mean "To" and "For".

The quote I read said it is widely used in Spain.

Pa' la Tumba/ To the grave

Pa' siempre/ for ever> forever
