When the sun rises from the sea
and illuminates it with its light
its palm trees become drunk
and Veracruz awakens
From Perote to Zotavento
from Tuxtlas to Fortin
in Xalapa, in the Huasteca
in Cempoala or el Tajón
Because I am from Veracruz
in the mountains or in the sea
I dance the huapango in Pánuco
and in Papantla I fly.
I sow, I fish, I till, I create
I dream, I river, I sing and I go,
proudly proclaiming
that I am from Veracruz.
I have the Olmec head
Totonaca the heart
from the peak of Orizaba,
my song goes to the sea.
I sow, I fish, I till, I believe,
I know how to fight to live
because I am from Veracruz
I am not afraid of the future...NO
Poza Rica smells like crude oil
Catemaco like temazcal,
in the port it smells like a party
when the Carnival breaks out
Only Veracruz is beautiful
Veracurz advances and goes
walking through the path
of the future and beyond.
I sow, I fish , I work, I believe
I dream, I river, I sing and I go,
proclaiming with pride
that I am from Veracruzano...
I am from Veracruzano, I am from Veracruzano
I am from Veracruzano , I am from Veracruz
