Here Are Karol G & Drake’s ‘Ahí’ Lyrics Translated to English

The collaboration debuts at No. 1 on the Hot Latin Songs chart. Karol G Vito Fernicola Trending on Billboard Karol G has stormed to the top of the Billboard charts with her sixth studio album, No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto, with the set debuting No. 1 on Top Latin Albums chart and “Ahí,” her collaboration with Drake, debuting at No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs. With the latter, Karol pushes Bad Bunny’s “DTMF” down to No. 2 after it broke records and spent 72 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 since its first week on top in January 2025. Marking the first collaborative effort between the Colombian artist and Canadian star, the sensual song blends tropical, R&B and pop, and narrates the story between a woman who’s trying to heal and move on from a broken heart and a man who’s patiently waiting to have his opportunity to get to know her. “I want you, but for now/ I’m not available, I have my heart broken,” Karol sings, while Drake replies in Spanish with: “The last thing I want is to pressure you.” The end of the collab includes Drake’s verse on “New Bestie,” one of the tracks from his album MAID OF HONOUR, adding to the song’s impact.
