Lyrics in Spanish Language
Chorus
Con aureos buriles tus magnas proezasla historia en sus faustos por siempre grabo;tu suelo es emporio de ingentes riquezas,tu cielo, el mas bello que el sol alumbro!
I Gentil amazona de faz sonriente,gallarda te muestras sobre alto penon;el lauro circunda tu olimpica frentey el viento tremola tu airoso pendon!
II Al tragico encuentro de hirsutos leones,tus aguilas fueron en marcha triunfal;y el sol de San Felix brillo en tus blasones!,y fue desde entonces tu nombre inmortal!
III Tu encierras, oh Patria! lo bello y lo grande.La gloria te ilustra, te ampara el honor.Y el bravo Orinoco tus pecho expandeCantando su eterno poema de amor.
IV Guayana! Santuario de musicas lleno,que brindas al alma contento y solaz,permitan los hados que siempre en tu senosus rosas y mirtos deshoje la paz.
Lyrics in English Language
Chorus
With aureous burins your great exploitsthe history in its pomps engraved forever;your soil is center of enormous riches,your sky, the most beautiful that the sun has illuminated!
I Gentle amazona with a smiling face,valiant you show yourself over a high rock;the laurels encircle your olympic foreheadand the wind hoists your graceful pennant!
II To the tragic encounter of hirsute lions,your eagles went in a triumphal march;and the sun at San Felix shone in your escutcheons!,and your name was inmortal henceforth!
III You enclose, oh Homeland! the beautiful and the great.The glory makes you famous, the honor shelters you.And the ferocious Orinoco your chest expandsSinging your eternal love poem.
IV Guayana! Sanctuary full of musicthat you offer to the content and relaxed soul,may fate allow that forever in your bosomPeace scatters the leaves from its roses and myrtles.
