Sin Negro No Hay Guaguanco
Los Hermanos Lebron Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Los negros del Malecón...
Porque sin negro no hay, sin negro no hay
La Rumba ni Guaguancó.
En el solar Catalina preparaba todo
Para bailar con los negros
Ellos están alborota′os y quieren bailar
Con la Tumba, el Tumbador y el Sonero
Voy a bailar que bueno.
(Sin negro no hay, sin negro no hay Guaguancó)
Ay mi canto va de Guaguancó, como lo baila Chimbó.
(Sin negro no hay, sin negro no hay Guaguancó)
Para bailar la rumba lo que tu necesitas
Es la Tumba y un Tambor.
(Sin negro no hay, sin negro no hay Guaguancó)
La Rumba, el Guaguancó, la Plena y la Bomba
Así se goza mejor.
(Sin negro no hay, sin negro no hay Guaguancó).
(Sin negro no hay Guaguancó)
(Sin negro no hay Guaguancó)
(Sin negro no hay Guaguancó)
(Sin negro no hay Guaguancó)

Sin negro, sin negro, no hay Guaguancó.
The song "Sin Negro No Hay Guaguancó" by Los Hermanos Lebron is an energetic tribute to Afro-Cuban music and dance, particularly the Rumba and Guaguancó styles. The song calls for a toast to the black people, specifically those on the Malecón in Havana, who are credited with creating this vibrant and rhythmic music. The lyrics emphasize the vital role that black people and their music play in these dance styles, asserting that without their contributions, there can be no Rumba or Guaguancó.
The song describes a scene where a group of people, led by the singer, are preparing to dance the Rumba and Guaguancó. The singer identifies the key components of these dances, including the Tumba (drum), Tumbador (drummer), and Sonero (singer), and declares his intent to dance along with them. The lyrics also reference other styles of Afro-Caribbean music, such as Plena and Bomba, suggesting that these styles are also essential for true enjoyment.
Overall, "Sin Negro No Hay Guaguancó" celebrates the rich cultural heritage of Afro-Cuban music and dance, honoring the black people whose creativity and talent have made these art forms possible.
