Mariano in Ska Cubano

Mariano
How beautiful you are
Your pretty women
Give you the enchantment of love

From Guajai
To Almendares
There are lovely places
I will never be able to forget

Your flowers
And sharing of happiness, yes
In my verses
I could paint a picture

With your parks
And your avenues
With your picnic grounds
And your boulevards

And the contrast
Of your lovely palm groves
And sugar cane thickets
And an old sugar mill

In Mariano life is seen
Through rose-colored glasses
And everywhere you look
You see a beautiful woman

(Repeat)

There in Mariano
I left my heart
And I'm going to see it
At nightfall
And I'm going to see it
At nightfall
