Lyrics

Tiempo de colonización sometimiento
y fusión de independencias y muerte.
Se dibujan sobre tu piel mujer de Guanahaní
recompensando al destino.
Tienes el cuerpo de un sueño de la historias que duerme en tu vientre
hija de este mar de la esclavitud de un conquistador
de un indio taíno y del tiempo.
Eres un invento del mar que no te deja pensar
que mata con la mirada.
Si el pasado es incierto en tu historia
no se tapa el sol con un dedo.
Princesa de cobre,
alga y corazón de Guanahaní llega mi pregón.
Y dice.
Negro, negro, raza virgen,
Guanahaní baila tu cuerpo y se contonea ay, para mí.
Negro, negro, raza virgen,
Guanahaní baila tu cuerpo y se contonea ay, para mí…

Lyrics translation

Colonization time submission
and fusion of independence and death.
They draw on your skin woman of Guanahani
rewarding fate.
You have the body of a dream of the stories that sleeps in your belly
daughter of this sea of slavery of a conqueror
of a Taino Indian and of time.
You're an invention of the sea that won't let you think
he kills with his eyes.
If the past is uncertain in your history
you don't cover the sun with a finger.
Copper Princess,
alga and heart of Guanahani comes my proclamation.
And he says.
Black, Black, Virgin race,
Guanahani dances your body and fumbles Oh, for me.
Black, Black, Virgin race,
Guanahani dance your body and contonea Oh, for me…
