Puerto
Rico National Anthem
The land of Borinquen
where I have been born.
It is a florid garden
of magical brilliance.
A sky always
clean
serves as a canopy.
And placid lullabies are given
by the waves at her feet.
When at her
beaches Columbus arrived,
he exclaimed full of admiration:
Oh! Oh! Oh!
This is the beautiful land, that I seek.
It is Borinquen
the daughter,
the daughter of the sea and the sun.
of the sea and the sun,
of the sea and the sun,
of the sea and the sun,
of the sea and the sun!
