Que es lo yo escucho

Un quinto llamando, mi guaguanco

Elabio tumbando, y la orquesta repicando

A ti te conviene,
It suits you,
Oye bien lo que tiene mi guaguanco
He hears well what's in my mouth.
Elabio tumbando, y la orquesta repicando

Y yo te lo traigo para ti
And I'll get it for you
Mi ritmo llama y dice así

Escuchalo sonar, ay a ti te conviene

Óyelo que te conviene, mi tambor esta sonando

Óyelo que te conviene, pero que rico es mi guaguanco
