La Patria
you and me and the home that supports us.
The tomb of our fathers
and the garden of our house.
The country is the sky blue
dawning in your window
rugged mountains and watch you and keep you.
The country is the clean pride
history happens to us, is the uncertain future
where you put your hope and your desire to be
Argentina each morning.
Parental
are your customs and the language you speak.
wheat bread you eat is also
piece of homeland.
La Patria is the Our Father
you pray for morning
and blue and white
puts that knot in your throat.
The country is the pulse of your blood
joyful uproar,
because the future is yours
also be in the country.
The country is
have faith in your parents and your home as all you
you will miss the country.Author: José Luis Santiago
