El Perú Nació Serrano

Peru was born highland
From the depths of the blue lake of Puno's Titicaca
Under the Inca Sun with the song of the rivers
Between flutes and panpipes lulled by the huayno

Peru was born highland
Peru was born highland

Peru became great
Through the roads that the chasqui united
Valleys, plateaus, and summits
Snowy rivers and jungles, reaching the sands
Beyond the borders of the sea of Tacna and Tumbes

Peru became great
Peru became great

Peru today is eternal
For the grand imperial Cuzco, sanctuary of Machu Picchu
For the sculpted blood, of Quechuas, Chancas, and Aymaras
In the wind and in the stones of glorious Sacsayhuaman

Peru was born highland
Peru became great
Peru today is eternal
