Himno a Veracruz
Ryszard Siwy
Hymn to Veracruz
Veracruz, your name carries
The truth and reason for your being
It's an honor so immense, that you raise
Your people who see the dawn
Your cultures embrace like brothers
Great towns with eyes on the Sun
Together they forge eternal seeds
In your bright, shining crucible
Veracruz, Veracruz
I sing to you and swell with pride
Veracruz, it's true
You are a land of peace and love
Veracruz is a friendly town
Supportive, warm, and kind
Veracruz is the generous sea
Of fruitful and feverish work
Veracruz is songs and joy
It's fandango, huapango, and danzón
Veracruz is a wondrous place
It's jarana, it's harp, and it's sound
Veracruz, Veracruz
I sing to you and swell with pride
Veracruz, it's true
You are a land of peace and love
