Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, Puerto Rico
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, Puerto Rico
Wake up Angelita, your mama just turned off the light
Manolo is already waiting by the old water-pipe
Her shoes in one hand, she carefully walks down the stairs
Holding her breath 'cause there's danger and love in the air
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, Puerto Rico
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, aie, Puerto Rico
Your papa will beat him if he ever finds out
Begging the Virgin won't help when you hear Manolito shout
(Manolito shout)
He's already standing under the starlit sky
You run to his arms and you laugh and you cry as he hold you tight
