Somos Pacífico

We are Pacific

We are Pacific, we are united
The region unites us
The look, the race, and the gift of flavor
We are Pacific, we are united
The region unites us
The look, the race, and the gift of flavor

Ok! If by any chance you don't know
In the Pacific, there's everything for you to enjoy
Singers, colors, good flavors
And many saints for you to adore

It's a whole connection
With a group from Chocó, Valle, Cauca
And my fellow countrymen from Nariño
All this repertoire makes me proud
And if we are so many
Why are we so hidden (in the corner)

Well, let's leave that point aside
There are people working but they are few
There they rake, they speak in slang
They ask you if you haven't partied
If you're stuck
If you've copied it, enjoyed it
If you left the one who's feeling bad or you've partied with them

There's a lot of heat in Buenaventura
And if you're from Chocó, you're tough by culture, hey!

We are Pacific, we are united
The region unites us
The look, the race, and the gift of flavor
We are Pacific, we are united
The region unites us
The look, the race, and the gift of flavor

United forever, by blood, color
And even by the land
No one gets lost from me
With a family bond that terrifies
Characteristic in many of us
Let them recognize us by our mom
And even by our faces

Ethnic, styles that are seen among all
The way of walking
The hair and even the skin
And tell me who's going to tell me no
I hear talk about San Pacho
My patron saint there in Quibdó, hey!

Where they see a peak and swear it was a kiss
Where the delicacy for breakfast is plantain with cheese
And that's not even talking about Buenaventura
Where currulao is danced, salsa with a little swing
Faithful port to fish
Big black women with a great swing
Where aguabajo and pasillo are danced
On the river side (folkloric rhythm)
With my dark-skinned friends

We are Pacific, we are united
The region unites us
The look, the race, and the gift of flavor
We are Pacific, we are united
The region unites us
The look, the race, and the gift of flavor

It's from the Pacific, Guapi, Timbiquí, Tumaco
El Bordo Cauca
We continue here with the African heritage
Stronger than before

Carrying the legacy everywhere
Consistently
Expressing ourselves through culture
Music, visual arts, dance in general
A distinctive accent when speaking
The 1,2,3 when dancing
After that, there's surely much more

This is Colombian Pacific
A race, a sector
Full of sisters and brothers
With our Bámbara and with the caché
(Blessing, good spirit)
Come and see for yourself
To see how it is, and hey!
Think about what can be lost, and hey!
Pure heat and yenyeré, and hey!

And now tell me what do you think
Why is Colombia more than cocaine, marijuana, and coffee.
