Lyrics of Buscando Guayaba - Rubén Blades

Buscando Guayaba (original)

Me fui pa, I monte, buscando guayaba
Por la vereda del ocho y el dos
Y aunque econtre una casa dorada
Esa guayaba, no la hallaba yo Mucho he buscado por todo el mundo
Y nunca, nunca pude encontrar
Una guayaba que me gustara, y detuviera mi caminar
Y aunque econtre una casa dorada
Esa guyaba no pude hallar
Bucando guayaba ando yo Que tenga sabor, que tenga mendo

(translation)

I went pa, I monte, looking for guava
By the path of the eight and the two
And even if I found a golden house
That guava, I couldn't find it. I've searched a lot all over the world
And I could never, never find
A guava that I liked, and stopped my walking
And even if I found a golden house
That guyaba I could not find
I'm looking for guava. Let it have flavor, let it have mendo
