Lyrics
Yo nací con la luna de plata
y nací con alma de pirata.
Yo he nacido rumbero y jarocho,
trovador de veras
y me fui lejos de Veracruz.
Veracruz, rinconcito donde hacen su nido las olas del mar,
Veracruz, pedacito de patria que sabe sufrir y cantar.
Veracruz, son tus noches diluvio de estrellas,
palmera y mujer
Veracruz, vibra en mi ser,
algún día hasta tus playas lejanas tendré que volver.
Veracruz, son tus noches diluvio de estrellas,
palmera y mujer
Veracruz, vibra en mi ser,
algún día hasta tus playas lejanas tendré que volver.
Lyrics translation
I was born with the Silver Moon
and I was born with the soul of a pirate.
I was born rumbero and jarocho,
real troubadour
and I went away from Veracruz.
Veracruz, little corner where the waves of the sea make their nest,
Veracruz, little piece of country that knows how to suffer and sing.
Veracruz, are your nights flood of stars,
palm tree and woman
Veracruz, vibrate in my being,
someday even your distant beaches will have to come back.
Veracruz, are your nights flood of stars,
palm tree and woman
Veracruz, vibrate in my being,
someday even your distant beaches will have to come back.
