cuba libre

the place that i come from

i barely remember

the place that i come from

i barely remember

but the soul of my people

will be with me forever

the soul of my people

will be with me forever

swept by an ocean of beautiful memories

swept by an ocean of beautiful memories

of people and places

that i carry with me

of people and places

that i carry with me

the place that i come from

i barely remember

the place that i come from

i barely remember

but the soul of my people

will be with me forever

the soul of my people

will be with me forever

you're hard to forget

though we're apart

you live in my heart

quiero mi cuba libre

pa que la gente pueda

pa que mi gente pueda bailar

quiero mi cuba libre

pa que la gente pueda

pa que mi gente pueda bailar

i pray that the rain will

bathe you in freedom

only music and laughter

be heard on the breeze

and forever after our dance wil continue

and i will at last

get to see you again

you're hard to forget

though we're apart

you live in my heart

quiero mi cuba libre

pa que la gente pueda

pa que mi gente pueda bailar

quiero mi cuba libre

pa que la gente pueda

pa que mi gente pueda bailar
