Yo soy un hombre sincero

De donde crecen las palmas

Yo soy un hombre sincero

De donde crecen las palmas

Y antes de morirme quiero

Echar mis versos del alma

One guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera

One guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera

Mi verso es de un verde claro

Y de un carmin encendido

Mi verso es de un verde claro

Y de un carmin encendido

Mi verso es un ciervo herido

Que busca en el monte amparo

One guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera

One guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera

(Spoken)

The words mean, I am a truthful man

From the land of the palm trees

And before dying, I want to share the poems of my soul

My verses are soft green,

My poems are also flaming red

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 mountain

Pleases me more than the sea

Con los pobres de la tierra

Quiero yo mi suerte echar

Con los pobres de la tierra

Quiero yo mi suerte echar

El arroyo de la sierra

Me complace mas que el mar

Guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera

guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera

One guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera

One guantanamera

Guajira, one guantanamera
