Hino de Vera Cruz - RS

In the land of the brave immigrant,
With blood and labor conquered,
Seeds of life were born,
Roots of a happy people.

Arrived from distant lands,
Left the greatest of legacies:
Love for family, for work
And trust in the future.

The cross that adorns your name
Symbolizes the belief of your people...
My home, my blessed land,
I want to sing to you with ardor!

Oh hail, beloved land,
Pride and light of my life!
Your charm fascinates me,
Vera Cruz of my affection!

You were born from dream and struggle
In pursuit of the desired ideal,
You grew like a leafy plant,
Watered with faith and sweat.

And today Work and Progress
Point to a smiling future.
Yet the greatest of riches
Are still your Children.

You are, Vera Cruz, the dwelling
Of this good and hospitable people.
Your rich and fertile soil
Is my sustenance and my strength.

Oh hail, beloved land,
Pride and light of my life!
Your song fascinates me,
Vera Cruz of my affection!
