La Rumba de Barcelona

The Rumba we know
Is not from China or Japan
Our Rumba from Barcelona
Is dizzy from traveling the world
Our Rumba from Barcelona
Is dizzy from traveling the world

The Rumba is born on the street
Daughter of Cuba and a little gypsy
The Rumba is born on the street
Daughter of Cuba and a little gypsy
And her sister who is the Havanera
Lives swaying among sailors
And her sister who is the Havanera
Lives swaying among sailors

The girl has a restless rhythm
She hangs the beat and moves her feet
The girl has a restless rhythm
She hangs the beat and moves her feet
And her family of beautiful rhythms
Live happily in a foreign land
And her family of beautiful rhythms
Live happily in a foreign land
The Rumba is born on the street
Daughter of Cuba and a little gypsy
The Rumba is born on the street
Daughter of Cuba and a little gypsy
And her sister who is the Havanera
Lives swaying among sailors
And her sister who is the Havanera
Lives swaying among sailors

The Candombe in Uruguay
The Milonga is Argentine
The Mexican Bolero
And the Plena which is Puerto Rican
Creating the Uauancó
Which is a rhythm from New York
A sympathetic boogaloo is born
Which is a more mafia-like rhythm
