My Orgullo Boricua

Written by Robert Lopez

(Verse 1)
From the streets of San Juan to the shores of Vieques
We carry our history, our roots never weak
Rhythms in our hearts, salsa in our soul
Boricua pride, yeah, we’re in control

Families, fiestas, we dance through the night
Sun shining bright, our future looks right
From the mountains high to the ocean blue
Every step we take, we stay true

(Pre-Chorus)
Raise your hands, feel the beat
Let the drums move your feet
From the island to the world, we show
The Boricua fire, let it glow

(Chorus – Bilingual)
My Orgullo Boricua, mi corazón
From the island to the world, we shine strong
¡Levanta las manos, siente el son!
Boricua forever, we belong
My Orgullo Boricua, mi pasión
We carry the spirit, in every song
Together we rise, con el corazón
Boricua forever, we stay strong

(Verse 2)
Old streets, new dreams, the culture lives on
The music, the food, the spirit is strong
We fight, we laugh, we love, we play
Every Boricua makes the world sway

Carnivals, parades, the flags in the sky
We honor our ancestors, we’ll never deny
Every corner, every town, every face
We wear our orgullo with love and grace

(Pre-Chorus)
Raise your hands, feel the beat
Let the drums move your feet
From the island to the world, we show
The Boricua fire, let it glow

(Bridge)
We’re the heart, we’re the soul
From the past to the future, we take control
No matter where we go, we’ll always show
Boricua pride, let the whole world know

(Final Chorus – Bilingual)
My Orgullo Boricua, mi corazón
From the island to the world, we shine strong
¡Levanta las manos, siente el son!
Boricua forever, we belong
My Orgullo Boricua, mi pasión
We carry the spirit, in every song
Together we rise, con el corazón
Boricua forever, we stay strong
