El Cholo

I only have one illusion
My terroir
And so I say where I'm going: Cholo I am!
The first light that shone on me
Pride is for script guide
It's a blessing to be Peruvian

I love the sawhills with their snowfall
The Sun Coast is unparalleled
Tropical mountains have no equal

Cholo, don't shrink you!
Cholo, cholo to the temple
Indian Creole, Of course, yes!
I feel the notes of Yaravi
The cheerful Marinera and that waltz
They are my love too
In no field am I afraid
I am from deep inside and very decisive
And loving I make my heart firm

Arequipa, white city of Misti (my land!)
Where to looking Piura at ideal tropical
The beautiful daughter of good liquor
Trujillo, the big appetiser
And Cusco, where the Incanate still roams
Lima, a marvel of brilliance, modern and old at the same time
How great is my country, happy dream!

Cholo, don't shrink you!
Cholo, cholo to the templehead
Indian Creole, Of course yes!
I feel the notes of a Yaravi
The cheerful Marinera and that waltz
They are my love too
In no field am I afraid
I am from deep inside and very decisive
And loving I make my heart firm
