Lyrics of Cuba Y Puerto Rico - Rey Ruiz

Cuba Y Puerto Rico (original)

Ah lalala
ah lalalaaaaaaaaaa
El día que me fui
y la abandone
sabia que me iba
sin poder volver
El miedo que sentí
explicarlo no se
tenía el mundo delante
sin saber que hacer,
pero hay lugares que llegas
que te hacen recordar
el cariño de tu gente, tu tierra y tambien tu mar
Pensando en mi Habana
una lagrima se asoma
con un nudo en la garganta
y al ver a San Juan
me devuelve la alegria
la esperanza de algún dia regresar
y con mi pueblo ahi cantar
ah lalalala
ah lalalala, raraa
A una tierra como esta
no imagine llegar
y hoy que vivo en ella
se ha convertido en mi hogar
Pensando en mi Habana
una lagrima se asoma
con un nudo en la garganta
y al ver a San Juan
me devuelve la alegria
la esperanza de algún dia regresar
y con mi pueblo de ahi cantar
ah lalalala
ah lalalala, raraa (bis)
Cuba y Puerto rico…
Tengo en mismo sentimiento por Puerto Rico que por mi Cuba natal
y lo que siento en este momento es un amor especial, fenomenal
Cuba y Puerto Rico
con razon les digo
me doy por vencido
nacieron por igual
Cuba y Puerto Rico son:
lo que me mueve por dentro
motivo de inspiración
Cuba y Puerto Rico son:
razón por lo tengo el corazón
partido en dos
Cuba y Puerto Rico son:
un solo pueblo con su afecto
su sencillez y su calor
Cuba y Puerto Rico son

(translation)

oh lalala
ah lalalaaaaaaaaaa
the day i left
and I abandoned her
i knew i was leaving
without being able to return
the fear i felt
explain it I don't know
I had the world in front of me
Without knowing what to do,
but there are places that you arrive
that make you remember
the love of your people, your land and also your sea
Thinking of my Havana
a tear appears
with a lump in the throat
and when seeing San Juan
it gives me back the joy
the hope of one day returning
and with my people there sing
ah lalalala
ah lalalala, weird
To a land like this
do not imagine arriving
and today that I live in it
it has become my home
Thinking of my Havana
a tear appears
with a lump in the throat
and when seeing San Juan
it gives me back the joy
the hope of one day returning
and with my people from there sing
ah lalalala
ah lalalala, weird (bis)
Cuba and Puerto Rico…
I have the same feeling for Puerto Rico as for my native Cuba
and what I feel right now is a special love, phenomenal
Cuba and Puerto Rico
with reason I tell you
I give up
they were born alike
Cuba and Puerto Rico are:
what moves me inside
reason for inspiration
Cuba and Puerto Rico are:
reason why i have the heart
split in two
Cuba and Puerto Rico are:
a single people with their affection
its simplicity and its warmth
Cuba and Puerto Rico are
