Lima de Antaño
Arturo Zambo Cavero
Old Lima
Old Lima
Your memory is unforgettable
Peruvian land of such beautiful women
Where renowned poets were born
Who sang to you with heartfelt emotion
Today no one sings your beloved music
They have completely forgotten your song
Old Lima if they don't want to remember you
Beloved land I will always sing to you
The song of Lima that passed
We must make it remember
We must make it come alive in our being
It's not possible to forget its musical beauty
Which I will always sing
Proud to be your singer I will take you from here
To other lands to show your great worth
Traditional Lima
Beautiful viceregal land
Your song will triumph
