Bello Durmiente

Sleeping Beauty

Bello Durmiente

I love you, Peru!¡Te amo, Perú!
And I would travel through all the range of greens that adorn youY recorriera toda la gama de verdes que te adornan
And the proud gray mantle of your coastY el gris soberbio manto de tu costa
That when climbing the hills, turns into colorsQue al subir por los cerros, en colores se torna

I would climb to your highest summitMe empinaría en tu más alta cumbre
To stretch my arms and hug youPara estirar mis brazos y abrazarte
And in that solitude, humbly askY en esa soledad, pedirte humilde
That you return my kiss, as I kiss youQue devuelvas mi beso, al yo besarte

And it's a display of love, my landY es un derroche de amor, el suelo mío
Because my Peru is the son of the SunY es que es el hijo del Sol, el perú mío
It's a giant cradled by its desiresEs un gigante al que arrullan sus anhelos
Beautiful sleeper dreaming in front of the skyBello durmiente que sueña frente al cielo

This, his dream, is shared by three beloved onesEste, su sueño, comparten tres amadas
Naked coast, full of illusionsDesnuda costa, ilusionada
Passionate jungle, exuberantExuberante, la selva apasionada
And a shy, enamored sierraY una tímida sierra enamorada

And it's a display of love, my landY es un derroche de amor el suelo mío
Because my Peru is the son of the SunY es que es el hijo del Sol, el perú mío
It's a giant cradled by its desiresEs un gigante al que arrullan sus anhelos
Beautiful sleeper dreaming in front of the skyBello durmiente que sueña frente al cielo

I love you, Peru!¡Te amo, Perú!
And I would travel through all the range of greens that adorn youY recorriera toda la gama de verdes que te adornan
And the proud gray mantle of your coastY el gris soberbio manto de tu costa
That when climbing the hills, turns into colorsQue al subir por los cerros en colores se torna

I would climb to your highest summitMe empinaría en tu más alta cumbre
To stretch my arms and hug youPara estirar mis brazos y abrazarte
And in that solitude, humbly askY en esa soledad, pedirte humilde
That you return my kiss, as I kiss youQue devuelvas mi beso, al yo besarte

Generous Peru!¡Generoso Perú!
Beautiful sleeper!¡Bello durmiente!
