Bello Durmiente
Chabuca Granda
Sleeping Beauty
I love you, Peru!
And I would travel through all the range of greens that adorn you
And the proud gray mantle of your coast
That when climbing the hills, turns into colors
I would climb to your highest summit
To stretch my arms and hug you
And in that solitude, humbly ask
That you return my kiss, as I kiss you
And it's a display of love, my land
Because my Peru is the son of the Sun
It's a giant cradled by its desires
Beautiful sleeper dreaming in front of the sky
This, his dream, is shared by three beloved ones
Naked coast, full of illusions
Passionate jungle, exuberant
And a shy, enamored sierra
And it's a display of love, my land
Because my Peru is the son of the Sun
It's a giant cradled by its desires
Beautiful sleeper dreaming in front of the sky
I love you, Peru!
And I would travel through all the range of greens that adorn you
And the proud gray mantle of your coast
That when climbing the hills, turns into colors
I would climb to your highest summit
To stretch my arms and hug you
And in that solitude, humbly ask
That you return my kiss, as I kiss you
Generous Peru!
Beautiful sleeper!
