Lyrics in English:

I have a story to tell you all...
(A story of my people)
It is a story of courage...
(A story of my people)
One night, similar to last night
There was a raft in the middle of the sea,
6 best friends without fear of failure

It had been 3 days since they left...
(In the morning from Havana)
Without sleeping to stay afloat...
(Collecting water from all the cracks)
They had faith,
They were sure they would arrive
In search of lights or a sign,
Of a flicker of freedom...

"Hey, I see the coast" said Yoel
“I see the sand and the palm trees”
The others looking concentrated
The dark shapes in the distance
"Yes, it must be"
They started to row with nothing to lose
In search of glory and better days
Hope must not be lost...
Saying,

Cho: If they don't like us, and they don't want us,
We're here to stay...
(To stay)
We got each other, that's all that matters,
We'll find a way, I know...

'Cause we're on the go
Everything ours we made on our own
Some people quit, and some people fold,
We stay on top, we stay on our toes…

Suddenly a light fell on them
It was a coast guard boat
And with nothing to lose, they jumped into the sea
Not much, just 10 meters from the sand
But 2 kids can't swim
Shortly after they were captured
They can't look back anymore,
There is no way back,
We are about to arrive

The remaining 4 ran up the shore,
Leaving their land behind
And when their feet touched the sand
They knew they were in their new home
To chase the dream
This is not a game
Nothing is given and it's time to work
There was a loud shout from a friend and he told us to
Never stop fighting...

Cho: 2x

We are together…
And how does it sound?
Ba Ba Ba Ba!

and my latinos
And the gringos too...
So that they enjoy it
