A Mi Tierra

From far away, I remember you, dear homeland
And in your honor, I sing, always singing
I’m your son who never forgets and who longs for you
To that my land that everyone calls
Paraguay
I’ve seen many strange countries in my travels
But they don’t have what you have, my great nation
To those lakes, rivers, and jungles that I sing about
And to your women with big black eyes who know how to love

Your melodies are messages, the most beautiful things you have
I’ll be your faithful messenger, bringing songs to share
This way in life, I’m happy, I have a heart to sing
Always singing, I go
In your honor
My Paraguay

This is how I wander the world with joy
Always carrying my tricolor as my flag
The red, white, and blue of the sky, a sublime color
You’re the pride of Native America, my Paraguay

Your melodies are messages, the most beautiful things you have
I’ll be your faithful messenger, bringing songs to share
This way in life, I’m happy, I have a heart to sing
Always singing, I go
In your honor
My Paraguay

This way in life, I’m happy, I have a heart to sing
Always singing, I go
In your honor
My Paraguay
