I know what's enchanting
|
about my beautiful Borinquen
|
That's why I love her so much
|
And I'll always call her Precious
|
|
I know about her dark-skinned women
|
I know about the smell of her roses
|
That's why to my rich country
|
I'll always call her Precious
|
|
Island of the Caribbean
|
Island of the Caribbean
|
Borinquen
|
|
The waves of the ocean that bathe you,
|
calls you Precious
|
Precious for being enchanting,
|
for being an Eden
|
And you have the nobility
|
of the mother, Spain
|
And the fiery song of the ferocious indian
|
You have this too
|
|
Chorus:
|
The bards that sing your history
|
call you Precious
|
It doesn't matter that the tyrant
|
treats you with black hatred
|
You would still be Precious
|
without a flag, laurels or glory
|
Precious, precious
|
you're called by liberty's children
|
|
Precious, I carry you inside
|
very deep in my heart
|
and the more the time goes by
|
my love for you grows and grows
|
|
Because it's now that I understand
|
Because it's now that I understand
|
that regardless of what happens
|
I will always be Puerto Rican
|
I will always be Puerto Rican
|
Because wherever I walk, oooohhhh
|
Because I carry it in my blood
|
Because of my parent's heritage
|
And with pride I repeat
|
I love you Puerto Rico
|
I love you Puerto Rico
|
|
And that's why it's born in me today
|
To dedicate this song
|
To that noble jibarito** Rafael
|
And to my island of enchantments
|
I love you Puerto Rico
|
I love you Puerto Rico, oooohhhh
