Lyrics and translation Celia Cruz - Ritmo de Mi Cuba

Ritmo de Mi Cuba

Este ritmo de mi Cuba
Tiene sabor tropical
Sabe a caña, sabe a piña
No hay quien lo pueda igualar

Cuando suenan los tambores
Hacen la Tierra temblar
Baila el gordo, baila el flaco
No hay quien se pueda aguantar

Con este ritmo de mi Cuba
No hay quien se pueda aguantar
(Suenan los tambores, óyelos sonar)
Pero óyelos sonar, pero óyelos sonar
Pero óyelos sonar, los tambores, los tambores

(Suenan los tambores, óyelos sonar)
Este ritmo de tambores hace la Tierra temblar
(Suenan los tambores, óyelos sonar)
Cuando yo siento la rumba, la rumba empiezo a bailar
(Suenan los tambores, óyelos sonar)

(Suenan los tambores, óyelos sonar)
Este rito es muy sabroso yo sé que te va a gustar
(Suenan los tambores, óyelos sonar)
Es el ritmo de mi Cuba que nadie puede igualar
(Suenan los tambores, óyelos sonar)

Rhythm of My Cuba

This rhythm of my Cuba
Has a tropical flavor
Tastes like sugarcane, tastes like pineapple
No one can match it

When the drums sound
They make the Earth shake
The fat man dances, the thin man dances
No one can resist

With this rhythm of my Cuba
No one can resist
(The drums are playing, listen to them play)
But listen to them play, but listen to them play
But listen to them play, the drums, the drums

(The drums are playing, listen to them play)
This rhythm of drums makes the Earth shake
(The drums are playing, listen to them play)
When I feel the rumba, I start to dance the rumba
(The drums are playing, listen to them play)

(The drums are playing, listen to them play)
This ritual is very tasty, I know you'll like it
(The drums are playing, listen to them play)
It's the rhythm of my Cuba that no one can match
(The drums are playing, listen to them play)
