Somos Cubanos
Los Van Van
We Are Cubans
To let the world know the reason for our flavor
Cuban, let's go there!
In fourteen hundred Columbus arrived
And discovered this beautiful island
Where the Indian race lived
Which over time was exterminated. Abuser!
The African race arrived
And they mixed it with the Spanish
The Creole mulatto was born
The Cuban
It was a different mix
With a lot of flavor
Accompanied by rumba and guaguancó
Masters of the clave
And the magic of three plus two
That made us so special
Thanks to God
We are Cuban, Spanish, and African
We are the perfect mix
The purest combination, Cuban
The greatest creation, for sure
Blessed be the Lord for giving us so much spice
So much flavor and so much heart!
Cuban that I am, wherever we go
We bring the good stuff, we are fire
Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me, excuse me
Excuse me there, the Cubans have arrived to pick up
Rumba marigua, runaway slave
