Hino de Santa Maria - RS

Imposing, graceful, and lofty
Like the triumphant dawn to emerge,
Among the mountains, it opens, with a smile,
Friendly land - source of Good
Freedom, honor, strength, and justice,
Race and love-sun-immortal mixture.

Santa Maria
Melody-garden!
The Mediatrix Mother
Protects your home!
Santa Maria
City-joy!
In the distance of time,
You are life sprouting
Santa Maria,
Melody-garden!
You are the cradle-legend
Of the beautiful Imembui!
Santa Maria,
City-joy!
I am a proud son
I am proud of you.

You were a landmark of shelter and passage
That history sought to extend.
And on the wings of the Minuano wind
The train whistle comes to bring;
A thousand longings, so many past glories
That today integrate science and knowledge.

From the roots of yesterday to the present
And to the future of the flower-generation:
Seed law of faith and culture
Gaucho voice in the verse-song!
In the orchestra of the book and work
Art and light paint the sky and your ground!
