Hino de Pelotas

Hail, hail, oh beloved Pelotas
Most beautiful Land of the South
Your life is covered in glories
How beautiful is your sky so blue

There is no land in the world so grand
That equals you in splendid brightness
Pelotas, the beautiful land
I am proud, also, to be a son

In your bosom appears, shines
Joy, education, and valor
São Gonçalo quietly murmurs
The song of longing and love

Hail, hail, oh beloved Pelotas
Most beautiful Land of the South
Your life is covered in glories
How beautiful is your sky so blue

I will always love you, Pelotas
And keep you in my memory
I learned in your bosom to cry
And to smile in moments of glory

My grandparents knew how to love you
With pride, affection, and respect
And in dying, they made me inherit
This love that I keep in my heart

Hail, hail, oh beloved Pelotas
Most beautiful Land of the South
Your life is covered in glories
How beautiful is your sky so blue
