Lyrics

Spanish lyrics English translation
Ya se ve, Patria mía, en tu oriente
Nuevo sol esparcir claridad;
Ya podemos con voz reverente
Pronunciar: Dios, Unión, Libertad.
Cambiarán ya tu vida y tu suerte
Un solo hombre tus hijos serán;
Ya entre ellos no habrá guerra o muerte
Y dichosos tu bien labrarán.
Ya podrás alcanzar pura gloria,
De tus próceres sueño tenaz;
Y el laurel de tu espléndida historia
Será signo de triunfos de paz.
Salve, Patria, tu hermosa bandera
Luce al viento del cielo el color;
A su sombra juramos doquiera
A vencer o morir por tu honor.
In your orient, it can be seen, oh fatherland
A new sun that spreads a shining light;
We can now with a reverent voice
Proclaim: God, Union, Liberty.
Your life and fortune shall change
All of your children shall be as one;
There shall not be war nor death amongst them
And in happiness their prosperity they’ll forge.
May you reach pure glory,
Of your heroes’ tenacious dream;
And let the laurels of your splendid history
Be a sign of triumphs of peace.
Hail, your beautiful flag, oh motherland
It flies in the winds as the color of your sky;
And under your shadow we solemnly swear
To prevail or die for your honor.
