The Sandpipers – Guantanamera lyrics
Guantanamera, Guajira Guantanamera
Guantanamera, Guajira Guantanamera

Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Y antes de morir me quiero
Echar mis versos del alma


Guantanamera, Guajira Guantanamera
Guantanamera, Guajira Guantanamera

Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmín encendido
Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmín encendido
Mi verso es un ciervo herido
Que busca en el monte amparo

The words mean "I am a truthful man from the land of the palm trees
And before dying, I want to share these poems of my soul
My poems are soft green
My poems are also flaming crimson
My poems are like a wounded fawn seeking refuge in the forest

The last verse says: 'Con los pobres de la tierra'
With the poor people of this earth I want to share my fate
The streams of the mountains please me more than the sea"

(background)
Por los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
Por los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
Y el arroyo de la sierra
Me complace más que el mar

Guantanamera, Guajira Guantanamera
Guantanamera, Guajira Guantanamera
