Encountered this on a recent salsa outing and I quite like this song. I thought it was a Mandarin bachata but it's actually by Xtreme. The way they pronounced "Shorty Shorty" sounded like "Shuo Ni Shuo Ni". Hey, we could easily create a Mandarin version of this song!
Hence I'm presenting below a compilation of the original Spanish lyrics with English translation from lyricstranslate.com and a Mandarin version which is partly a translation of the original and partly a different version.
Acknowledgments to Tracy for contributing some lyrical ideas!

Shorty Shorty a.k.a. Shuo Ni Shuo Ni 说你说你
[Verse 1]
What should I say? What should I do?
Dimelo pronto, que muero sin tu luz
Dime que ya, hoy regresas a mi
Si te entregas a mi, yo me entrego a ti
What should I say? What should I do?
Tell me soon, cause I’m dying without your light
tell me that your coming back to me, today
if you give yourself to me, I’ll give myself to you
wo yinggai shuome? yinggai zuome?
kuaidian gaosu wo, wo jiulai si le
gaosu wo ni jintian huilai gen wo
ruguo song niziji gei wo, wo song woziji gei ni
我应该说么？ 应该做么？
快点告诉我， 我就来死了
告诉我你今天回来跟我
如果送你自己给我， 我送我自己给你
[Bridge]
Yo se porque
De noche no duermo mas
Y se porque
Mi vida no es vida
Porque no te tengo y porque no te encuentro, amor
Por eso te dedico esta cancion
I know why
I can’t sleep anymore at night
And I know why
My life is no life
Because I don’t have you with me, and because I can’t find you, baby
That’s why I’m dedicating this song to you
wo dong weihe
zai wanshang bukeyi shuijiao
hai dong weihe
wo shenghuo dengyu meiyou
yinwei meiyou ni peiwo erqie wo zhao budao ni, baobei
suoyine wo zheshouge fengxian gei ni
我懂为何
在晚上不可以睡觉
还懂为何
我生活等於没有
因为没有你陪我而且我找不到你， 宝贝
所以呢我这首歌奉献给你
[Chorus]
Shorty, shorty
Baby girl you look so fine
Shorty, shorty
Baby girl you're blowin my mind
Shorty, shorty
No vez que me muero por ti
Shorty, shorty
Y sin ti no podria exsistir

[Verse 2]
Where do I go? Where do I find you?
Quiero verte, me hace daño
Dime que ya, necesitas de mi
Que se que no eres feliz
Sin mi no puedes vivir
Where do I go? Where do I find you?
wanting to see you, hurts me
So tell me that you need me
Because I know you’re not happy
You can’t live without me
yao qu nali? zai nali zao ni?
dengdai ni, rang wo shang xin
gen wo shuohua, gaosu wo, ni yao wo

meiyou wo ni buneng shengcun
要去哪里？在哪里找你？
等待你， 让我伤心
跟我说话， 告诉我，你要我
我也知道你不开心
没有我你不能生存
