Al Río Uruguay
Sebastián Gómez Barboza
To the Uruguay River
Sweet water blessing of the coast
Mighty mirror traveling towards the sea
Carrying with the current the sadness
Of my land beyond
Sweet water, pebble and sandy
Where snails abound in excess
Don't forget about the fishermen
Who travel your flow
Chasing the sound of some Thrush
Sheltered in the shadow of some Inga
Listening to the sound in the wind of a Thrush
Sweet water, blessing of the coast
