The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Cuba Va" by Silvio Rodríguez.

Lyrics

Del amor estamos hablando
por amor estamos haciendo
por amor se est hasta matando
para por amor seguir trabajando
Que nadie interrumpa el rito
queremos amar en paz
para decir en un grito
Cuba va, Cuba va!
Quiero abrir mi voz al mundo
que llegue al ltimo confn
de norte a sur y de este a oeste
y que cualquier hombre pueda
gritar sus propias esperanzas,
sus heridas, y su lucha
cuando diga
Cuba va!
Puede que algn machete
se enrede en la maleza,
puede que algunas noches
las estrellas no quieran salir.
Puede que con los brazos
haya que abrir la selva
pero a pesar los pesares, como sea
Cuba va, Cuba va!

Lyrics translation

We're talking about love.
for love we are doing
for love, he's even killing himself.
for love to keep working
Let no one Interrupt The Rite
we want to love in peace
to say in a cry
Cuba goes, Cuba goes!
I want to open my voice to the world
to reach the last confn
north to South and east to West
and that any man can
scream your own hopes,
his wounds, and his struggle
when I say
Cuba goes!
Maybe some machete
it gets tangled in the weeds,
maybe some nights
the Stars Don't want to go out.
Maybe with the arms
have to open the jungle
but despite the sorrows, whatever
Cuba goes, Cuba goes!
