Hino de Icó - CE

In a sandy plain
Veiled by the star
Icó was born so beautiful
From the backlands, lovely princess
From a sculptured chapel
Landmark of a flourishing homeland
Icó, centennial city
Altar of God raised on earth

On the banks of the salty
River of this Ceará
Icó, you are always renowned
Glory will exalt you
You will always have victory
In this endless mystery
To dwell with you, what glory
The Lord of Bonfim desired

Your mansions and big houses
Are the past legacies
Bleeding in hearts
A future of hopes
Your glorious past
Once made you a capital
Of this powerful state
Making your history immortal

On the banks of the salty
River of this Ceará
Icó, you are always renowned
Glory will exalt you
You will always have victory
In this endless mystery
To dwell with you, what glory
The Lord of Bonfim desired
