Un sombrero de paja [English translation]

If you see from afar coming a straw hat and you see,

the full canoe and you see, a man rowing,

If you see from afar coming a guayabera and you see,

the full canoe and you see, a man rowing, it's me

who with gifts I come to visit

dressed in white I come to ask

if your dad and your mom want to be

the parents-in-law of this man

I swear that I'll be a good son-in-law,

if they want to be my parents-in-law

if they want to be my parents-in-law

if they want to be my parents-in-law

if they want to be my parents-in-law
