Chorus 1
Y ahí llego yo
And there I come
Llego yo y ahí vamos a vé
I arrive and there we go to see
Y ahí vamos a vé
And there we go to see
Vamos a vé como es gozá
Let's see what it is like to enjoy
Es gozá con el bembé
It is joy with the bembé
Con el bembé
With the bembé
El bembé africano es

Mírala que linda es
Look at her how cute she is
Linda es y se le ve
Linda is and you can see her
Se le ve yo no se qué

And there we go see
Con el bembé
With the bembé
No me pregunten cuándo me voy
Don't ask me when I'm leaving
Si a mí me sigue gustando el pueblo De 'onde soy
If I still like the town From 'where am I
Que me perdonen si yo me quejo
Forgive me if I complain
Pero me gusta más cono la canta Alejo
But I like it better when Alejo sings it
Soy Pacífico, soy Caribe
I am Pacific, I am Caribbean
Y en Santa Marta juego futbol con el Pibe
And in Santa Marta I play soccer with El Pibe
Quiero gritarlo
I want to shout it
Lo voy a haces
I will do it
Viva Palenque, viva Pambelé
Long live Palenque, long live Pambelé
