Patria Querida

Cuba, my beloved homeland, for you is my inspiration
Cuba, my beloved homeland, for you is my inspiration

How beautiful your fields look, oh my idolized land
How beautiful are your mountains and your precious countryside

When the sun rises in you, your land shines
And the sweet glow sways, the palm tree full of love
Oh homeland of Maceo and Martí

Cuba, my beloved homeland, for you is my inspiration
Cuba, my beloved homeland, for you is my inspiration

Far away a rooster sings, a mockingbird's trill is heard
And on the road, the gallop of a horse is heard

I feel such deep pleasure, to have been born on your soil
Because the sky that shelters me, is the most precious in this world
Oh homeland of Maceo and Martí

Cuba, my beloved homeland, for you is my inspiration
Cuba, my beloved homeland, for you is my inspiration
