Orinoco

A lush paradise frames it all
Ripe fruits look like golden ornaments
The waters kiss the sand, making it wet
And that enchantment has the charm of a siren

The night flows like the Orinoco
Its silver back gliding through the most beautiful landscape
Splashing sounds from turtle fishermen
Moving through the thick brush
The stealthiest animal

Orinoco
You're almost there
Beautiful river
For sailing
Venezuela beats in you, sighs in you
Like a vital organ, uh
Orinoco
You're almost there
Wild river
Authentic guardian of Auyantepuy

The Orinoco rolls against the wind
And in his canoe, a fisherman is happy
In the dead of night, he follows the Moon
Counting the stars one by one

And when he nears his glorious delta
It slows down, gets darker, and more grand
The verse stabs the sea
Bathing the blue waters of the Caribbean
