Let Tambourines Begin

Puerto Rican girl
thin, thin, 
let street lights pour

bourbon on your hair,
anise on your skin.
Puerto Rican girl,

thin, thin, 
gin one white smile for me.
Let tambourines begin


Donal Mahoney

Let Tambourines Begin

Puerto Rican girl
thin, thin,

bourbon on your hair,
anise on your skin.
Puerto Rican girl,

thin, thin, 
gin one white smile for me.
Let tambourines begin

In Puerto Rican Skies

Faces smiling, nodding politely 
At words they don't seem 
To understand,

Show me pictures,
Showing the richness of
A faraway distant land,

Multicoloured motor cars,
Brown apartments 
Rising high in Puerto Rican skies.
