Compañero Del Interior
Catherine Vergnes
Companion from the Interior
Companion from the interior, you stand out from afar
Companion from the interior, you stand out from afar
With that lost, shiny, captivating gaze
With that lively and mischievous gaze
Companion from the interior, simplicity and education
Companion from the interior, dances the 2 and 1 better
From the north to the south, education dragged us
Trying to survive in the country's capital
The story began in the colony
Silent tradition
In Florida at Piedra Alta
Independence was signed
You heard a riverense speak
Or maybe an artiguense
Don't let yourself be charmed
By their Bahian accent
Rio Negro pours its waters
Into the fertile lands of Soriano
From the east rises the sun of the homeland
Maldonado and Rocha open their doors
Gates for a country eager and thirsty
For summer, beach, and guitar
Thirty-three, has three bridges
Of wood, iron, and concrete
At its feet sings the Olimar
It's the voice of Santiago Chalar
In the land of the minuanos
In the landscape of the serranos
In the Laguna de las Lavanderas
The Patria Gaucha sows and waits
Durazno and Flores are
The center of the interior
The Salteños and the patriarch's exodus
Arachanes and the great Guazunambi
Canario in Canelones
Maragatos, in San José
Three pistils of the heroic
Next to purification
Mark the time of the homeland
By the hand of my voice
Mark the time of the homeland
By the hand of your voice
Mark the time of the homeland
By the hand of you and me
