I like to feel your loving breeze,
Filling the secret part of my heart.
And just like that, I found out that you made me.*
Borinquén**, loving light, sunbeam. ***
I bare myself in thy womb, spirit, light,
Raining on your flowers, you give me this love.
So I discover, I live again.
Borinquén, loving light, sunbeam
Borinquén, loving light, sunbeam.
Borinquen Island, from the bottom of my soul I greet you,
Because your blood is Antillean, because mine is Antillean ****
We will mix as one, your blood and my blood.
Making me more yours,
Making you more mine,
I am making myself more yours,
You are making yourself more mine.
Borinquén, loving light, sunbeam.
Borinquén, loving light, sunbeam.
(Just like that, I found out that you made me)
And so just like that I found out ... that you made me
(Just like that, I found out that you made me)
Ehhh! Oy!
(Just like that, I found out that you made me)
I discovered myself: you made me
(Just like that, I found out that you made me)
I love free Borinquen, Borinquén.
(Just like that, I found out that you made me)
Loving light, sunbeam.
