La Habana
Haisi Cuba, uko gungwa rinonyungudutsa mweya.
Haisi Cuba - iyo Gaugin haana kumboona,
izvo Picasso haana kumbozviona,
Kupi vanhu vatema vakapfeka yellow necherry
Vanotenderera paboardwalk, pakati pezviedza zviviri,
nameso akakundwa
Havasisiri kuvanza pfungwa dzavo.
Haisi Cuba - iyo yakanzwa Stravisnsky
Ronga kurira kwemarimba uye güiros
Pamariro aPapa Montero,
Ñañigo nomukombi narumbero.
Haisi Cuba - uko yekoloni Yankee
Anozvirapa kubva pakupisa nekunwa "slushies"
Nemhepo, pamateru ekwakavakidzana;
Apo mapurisa anouraya utachiona
Kuruma kweumhutu huchangoburwa
Vachiri kuimba muchiSpanish.
Haisi Cuba - uko gungwa riri pachena
Kuti zvakapambwa zveMaine zvisarasikirwe,
Uye revolutionary kontrakta
Inopenda mhepo yemasikati chena,
Kufenda, nekunyemwerera kwemudhara,
Kubva pachigaro chako chinozunguza, kunhuhwirira
Zvetsika makokonati nemango.

Ruva rwepoppy:

Unowedzera sei kunhuhwirira,

Sezvo masikati anopera, shamwari dzinosvika
Sezvo masikati anoderera, shamwari dzinosvika;

Tinovhara mahwindo, magonhi, zvivharo,

Hatizivi kuti inzwi diki rinobva kupi;
Takasecha purazi, mudanga, nehuswa.

-Iyo vhiri referris! -taura zvakapinza-.
Asi hapana mavhiri eferris pano! Ichi chinhu chakasiyana!

Nhasi tanzwa kubva kuna nyanduri
Nhasi tanzwa kubva kuna nyanduri:
Pakati pekurira kwenhengo dzemuromo
Uye kurembera maoko enyeredzi dzekupedzisira,
Akamisa bhiza rake.
Musasa yemadzimai yakaombera maoko.
Kupfekedza chibage tortilla.
Vasikana vakaruma madzinde emaruva,
Uye vanhu vekare vakasimbisa ushamwari hwemisodzi
Pakati pezvinwiwa zvemambakwedza.
Vakatakura madhishi emvura.
Zvino shefu vakanga vachigadzirira
Kuti vasuke mazamu avo, misoro yavo nendebvu dzavo.
Vaumbi veVakadzi Vanomwe
Vaive votopuruzira zvigubhu nyoro.
Vana venyika hapana zvavanoita
Vakatungidza midzanga mirefu setsvimbo.
Uye chibayiro chamangwanani.
Makwayana avose
Dzakaruka dzakarovera pamapiki
Pakuvhenekera kwematanda anonhuhwirira.
Nhasi tanzwa kubva kuna nyanduri,
Nokuti akanga akarara akatasva bhiza.
Akati vanotakura Mwari panyanga dzavo
Uye husiku hune acid roses
Pamakapeti ezvirukwa zviviri.
Nharaunda yegungwa inoparadzwa
Nharaunda yegungwa yakabviswa:
Zvakakwana kuziva kuti vane misana yedu,
Kuti pane hwindo hombe uye rakasvibira
Kupi kushambira.
