Hino de Groaíras

Anthem of Groaíras
Groaíras, your pleasing name
is sweetness, it tells us itself.
We want to see you, beloved land,
always friendly, active, and happy.
(Chorus)
Good people, orderly people
there's none like you in this world!
Groaíras, pioneer
of the backlands of Ceará!
You witnessed, in a distant past,
Brazil growing since its youth.
This land, passed down to your children,
was where the immortal Mororó was born.
Groaíras of the meeting of rivers
that soothe your vast lands,
from the work in the pens and plantations,
you are the warmth of kind hearts.
Through your valleys at all times,
Carnauba palms enchant our gaze,
swaying their fronds in the wind,
under the strong sun or the moonlight.
In joy or in pain, any hour,
we have faith, we are never alone;
and we rely on Our Lady
of the Rosary who watches over us.
