Corazón de Rumba [English translation]

I have a rumba1 heart

that vibrates with a touch of conga2,

my flag is joy, and my cause is a song.

I have a sincere heart,

I'm a faithful lover of rhythm and party,

with dark skin and tropical magic.

I have a rumba heart that has the scent of Cuba streets, tobacco, coffee.

It's driven by a passionate fire,

and it awakens my Antillean soul when a bongo sounds.

A heart that leaves a trace in every corner,

wherever its song reaches,

so thankful to be handed to the people

in body and song,

It made a home out of the world.

It's a heart that preaches the smiles

of my race of sugar and joy.

A corner where my Latin voice spreads love,

and burns in me as a musical fever.

I have a rumba heart,

and when it beats, people dance.

I have a rumba heart,

and when it beats, people dance.

It's a rumba heart to be enjoyed.
