Quimbara, cumbara, cumba-quimbambá
Quimbara, cumbara, cumba-quimbambá
Quimbara, cumbara, cumba-quimbambá
Quimbara, cumbara, cumba-quimbambá
Eh, mamá
Eh-eh, mamá
Eh, mamá
Eh-eh, mamá
La rumba me está llamando
Bongo, dile que ya voy
Que se espere un momentico
Mientras canto un guaguancó
Dile que no es un desprecio
Pues vive en mi corazón
Mi vida es tan solo eso
Rumba buena y guaguancó, eh-ah
Eh, mamá
Eh-eh, mamá
¡Azúcar!
Quimbara, cumbara, cumba-quimbambá
