What joy, yes sir
Here with all my people
And with great admiration
I toast this celebration

From my transcendent roots
I bring you a guaguancó
So you never forget
This unparalleled rhythm

And with that, awaken
The pride of your origin
What joy, yes sir
From my Cuba to the whole world

I don't know how it started
For the one who invented it
I pay this tribute
And although time will pass

It is our responsibility
Through the song
To serve as education
And continue the tradition

Let the tradition continue
Let it continue, let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue
From my Cuba, I bring it to you
Let the tradition continue
It's my guaguancó, guaguancó, guaguancó
Let the tradition continue
Let it continue, let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue
From my beautiful Cuba, my beautiful Cuba (let it continue)
God willing, your star will soon return, my beautiful Cuba
My beautiful Cuba

Let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue

Let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue
So we never forget
Let it continue
Let it continue, let the tradition continue
Let the tradition continue
So it doesn't stop, no luxury (let it continue) from where you were born
Let the tradition continue
(Let the tradition continue)
Let it continue
From the tradition
Let it continue
