Текст и перевод песни La Sonora Santanera - A Veracruz

A Veracruz

¡Ah!

Quiero volver a mi tierra
Que encierra belleza y sabor tropical
Tierra de grandes hazañas
Que lleva en su entraña
La sangre triunfal

A la Veracruz, dulce puerto
Que siempre está abierto a quien quiera llegar
Quiero que mi canto vaya
Vagando en la playa y muera en el mar

A Veracruz, misteriosa belleza
Con esas noches de fresca tibieza
Quiero llegar hasta tus playas celestiales
Y enredarme en los corales de unos labios de rubí

Quiero como antes contar las estrellas
Y juguetear en las olas con ellas
Quiero volver a mi tierra costeña
Y buscar la dueña de mi corazón

A Veracruz (mi tierra costeña)
A Veracruz (yo quiero cantarle)
A Veracruz (y en mi canto darle)
A Veracruz (pedazos de amor)

A Veracruz (mi tierra costeña)
A Veracruz (yo quiero cantarle)
A Veracruz (y en mi canto darle)
A Veracruz (pedazos de amor)

To Veracruz

Ah!

I want to return to my land,
That holds beauty and tropical flavor.
Land of great deeds,
That carries in its heart
Triumphant blood.

To Veracruz, sweet port,
That's always open to whoever wants to arrive.
I want my song to go,
Wandering on the beach and dying in the sea.

To Veracruz, mysterious beauty,
With those nights of cool warmth.
I want to reach your celestial beaches,
And get tangled in the corals of ruby lips.

I want to count the stars like before,
And play in the waves with them.
I want to return to my coastal land,
And look for the owner of my heart.

To Veracruz (my coastal land),
To Veracruz (I want to sing to her),
To Veracruz (and in my song give her),
To Veracruz (pieces of love).

To Veracruz (my coastal land),
To Veracruz (I want to sing to her),
To Veracruz (and in my song give her),
To Veracruz (pieces of love).
