"Familia de Alduén" Maria Alduén Chorus My family is present in the history of bomba. Everyone knows the Alduén family Verse From Chicago to Mayagüez, my family is present in the history of bomba Everyone knows the Alduén family. The drums sound, the elders also know, in history the family stands strong The west has the Alduén family. They dedicate themselves to the rhythm that will never be lost. It was the voice of my great-uncle from heaven singing with my mother in flight. He from the clouds is there when I sing, a rain of bomba that fills us with enchantment. Today a voice tells me, little black girl, you will sing!

"Yo soy del Oeste" Verse Over the Caribbean Sea, emblem of enchantment, my heart beats like a drum at sunset. With the setting sun from the cardinal points, in the West I was born. My ancestry comes to me, my lineage of warriors, my essence and my honor. From the cardinal points, in the West I was born. I am from the West like the strength of the sun. Chorus Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. I am from the West like the gate of the sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. Verse I sing to my joyful plains, my perfumed little cave, the home of my ancestress, the one who gave me life. I am from the West like the gate of the sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. With the sway of the waves of its beach and its sea, with its palms and mangroves, I will never stop loving. I am from the West like the strength of the sun. I am the Caribbean Sea, my heart in bloom. Honoring the gift of that heritage— of drumbeats and barrels, maracas and cua, hearing the rhythm. In the West, like the setting sun, over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. To the City of the Hills I dedicate a special verse, founding city, that town my great brother. I am from the West like the strength of the sun. I conjure the murmur of the river, my native homeland, its poppy petal and the fierce waves of the sea. I am from the West like the gate of the sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. The clearest and deepest blue I have ever seen is found in the West of my ancestral Caribbean. I am from the West like the strength of the sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. Now in this other West, there in my spoken city, my beloved San Francisco and the Mission, my community. I am like the strength of the sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. I am from your rugged coast, from your unmatched mountains, from your celestial work of art. I am from the West like the strength of the sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. You have always given me the kisses of sun and sea, the guava pulp and the flower of the camboy. I am from the West like the setting sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats. I am from the West like the setting sun. Over the Caribbean Sea my heart beats.
