Veracruz

I was born in the silver moon
I was born with a pirate's soul
I've been born a rumba-man and Veracruzanian
A real troubadour
And I headed out of Veracruz
Veracruz, lil' corner
Where the sea weaves
Make their home
Veracruz, lil' frame
Of fatherland, knows how to suffer and cry

Veracruz, your nights are
Stars flood, palm trees and women
Veracruz, it thrills up my being
Till your faraway beaches
I'll have to go back one day
