Acosta Ñu
Jazmín del Paraguay
Acosta Ñu
There in my land, bordering the hill
Spreads the field of Acosta Ñu
Flourishing plain that in its silence
Recalls that Great War
Old trenches cross its valleys
Full of traditional glory
As in the seventies the shadows rise
Of those brave ones from Paraguay
I would like to sing to you about your heroic past
The great epic of a virile people
Piece of land the color of hope
Relic of Guarani glory and honor
Yukyry is sailing through your sleeping valley
It was the silent witness of your Kurusu
And in a hundred tenacious struggles, the cruel resistance
The heroes of your Acosta Ñu put up
Breasts of steel and hearts
Stepped py'aguasu
And even the children of young blood
Gave in the name of Acosta Ñu
Children, elders, all fell
To the oath of dying before
Only one thing remained in its place
The heroic race of the Guarani
I would like to sing to you about your heroic past
The great epic of a virile people
Piece of land the color of hope
Relic of Guarani glory and honor
Yukyry is sailing through your sleeping valley
It was the silent witness of your Kurusu
And in a hundred tenacious struggles, the cruel resistance
The heroes of your Acosta Ñu put up
