Yo Soy Puertorriqueña
Arroz con habichuelas, las telenovelas. (Rice and beans, Hispanic soap operas)
Dark skin is not equivalent to sin.
Puerto Rican I am, I am Puerto Rican.
La bandera que vuela muestra mi cultura. (The flag that flies shows my culture)
I have overcome the challenges I have faced.
Puerto Rican I am, I am Puerto Rican.
Who said?
Who said that being a minority was a bad thing?
¿Quien dijo? (Who said?)
Because in my eyes, it's a wonderful thing... the best thing.
Puerto Rican I am. Yo soy Puertorriqueña. (I am Puerto Rican.)
