Have you seen Panama

Where I first fell in love

It will forever be

An emerald necklace

Set between the seas

Beside a crystal stream

In the mountains of Chiriqui

I saw a girl astride a horse

She waved at me

I was fifteen

I was not a child

I was not yet a man

I was trying very hard

To understand

Indifferent to the dangers of

Living in a foreign land

Was I falling in love or

Under the spell Of Panama?

Went riding off alone

Much further than I should have gone

I wandered deep into the dark

Now which way gets me home

Then suddenly there she was

All covered with leaves and dust

I couldn't believe It but she followed me

Now both of us were lost

I was not a child

I was not yet a man

I was trying very hard

To understand

Indifferent to the dangers of

Living in a foreign land

Was I falling in love or

Under the spell Of Panama?

The clouds began to rumble

We found a dry piece of jungle

I don't remember If It rained

But I remember making love

So clearly I recall

The magic of Panama

And surely never will it let me go

Yo Soy Panameno

I was not a child

I was not yet a man

I was trying very hard

To understand

Indifferent to the dangers of

Living in a foreign land

Was I falling in love or

Under the spell Of Panama?
