Palmeras Tropicales - Celia Cruz, La Sonora Matancera

Cubita, isla bonita

Cubita, verde ilusión

Entre tus llanuras y palmeras hechiceras

Suavemente se enredó mi corazón

Tus cafetales desvelan

La lira de mi canción

Y con el guarapo de tu caña endulzaste

Suavemente para siempre mi razón

Eres linda y hechicera

Eres cuba, mi inspiración

Eres linda y hechicera

Eres cuba, mi inspiración

Atiéndeme, escúchame

Atiéndeme, escucha mi cantar

Atiéndeme, cuba hermosa, atiéndeme

Atiéndeme, escucha mi cantar

Escucha cuba querida

Lo que te quiero cantar

Que vas conquistando ciertamente

Mostrándole a la gente tu belleza tropical

Tus cafetales desvelan

La lira de mi canción

Y con el guarapo de tu caña endulzaste

Suavemente para siempre mi razón

Eres linda y hechicera

Eres cuba, mi inspiración

Eres linda y hechicera

Eres cuba, mi inspiración

Atiéndeme, escúchame

Atiéndeme, escucha mi cantar

Atiéndeme, cuba linda, atiéndeme

Atiéndeme, escucha mi cantar

Cubita, beautiful island

Cubita, illusion green

Between your plains and bewitching palm trees

Gently my heart entangled

Your coffee plantations reveal

The lyre of my song

And with the guarapo from your cane you sweetened

Gently forever my reason

you are cute and charming

You are Cuba, my inspiration

you are cute and charming

You are Cuba, my inspiration

Listen to me, listen to me

Listen to me, listen to my singing

Take care of me, beautiful Cuba, take care of me

Listen to me, listen to my singing

listen cuba dear

What I want to sing to you

that you are conquering certainly

Showing people your tropical beauty

Your coffee plantations reveal

The lyre of my song

And with the guarapo from your cane you sweetened

Gently forever my reason

you are cute and charming

You are Cuba, my inspiration

you are cute and charming

You are Cuba, my inspiration

Listen to me, listen to me

Listen to me, listen to my singing

Take care of me, beautiful Cuba, take care of me

Listen to me, listen to my singing
