Lyrics

Coro:
Soy Boricua, tu lo sabes
Soy Boricua
Yo viene pa la ciudad
En busca de nuevo ambiente
Y encontré que en mi cantar
Le gusto mucho a la gente
Cada vez que yo te canto
Me critica el que no sabe
Y es que yo traigo saoco Lola
Tambien traigo la llave
Yo soy Boricua
Mi amor es Puerto Rico
Para mi islita
No existe galardón
Nací en los campos
Del centro de mi islita
Yo soy Boricua
Mi amor es Puerto Rico
Y vengo… mama de monte adentro
LOs puertorros no dan gritos
Boricua…
Boricua de monte adentro
Y mi tierra yo la quiero
Sale loco de contento
Con su cargamento para la ciudad
El negrito el negrito Severo
Eh Boricua…
Boricua mama del mundo entero
Es que a mi tierra linda
Que a mi tierra linda caramba
Lola yo la quiero
Con mi machete en la mano

Lyrics translation

Choir:
I'm Boricua, you know
I'm Boricua
I come to the city
In search of a new environment
And I found that in my singing
People like me a lot
Every time I sing to you
The one who doesn't know criticizes me
And it is that I bring saoco Lola
I also bring the key
I am Boricua
My Love Is Puerto Rico
For my little island
There is no award
I was born in the fields
From the center of my little island
I am Boricua
My Love Is Puerto Rico
And I come... mother from inside Mount
Porters don't shout
Boricua…
Boricua de monte adentro
And my land I love
He goes crazy happy
With your cargo to the city
The Bold The Bold severe
Eh Boricua…
Boricua mama of the whole world
Is that to my beautiful land
That to my land linda caramba
Lola, I love her.
With my machete in my hand
