Cuan bonita eres cincelejana
Quisiera decirte con canciones
Cuan bonita eres cincelejana
Por eso te canto
Esta sabrosa cumbia
Por eso te canto
Esta sabrosa cumbia
Que me has inspirado
A las 2 de la mañana
Que me has inspirado
A las 2 de la mañana
Por eso te canto

Cuando en mi se clavan tus miradas
Siento que el cuerpo se me estremece
Cuando en mi se clavan tus miradas
Siento que el cuerpo se me estremece
Y hasta me parece
