Lyrics
| Spanish lyrics -
- Coro
- Entonemos un himno a tu cielo,
- a tu tierra y tu puro vivir,
- blanca estrella que alumbra en los Andes
- ancha senda que va al porvenir
- I
- Tres guerreros abrieron tus ojos
- a una espada, a una cruz y a un pendón.
- Desde entonces no hay miedo en tus lindes,
- ni codicia en tu gran corazón.
- II
- Hirió el hondo diamante un agosto,
- el cordaje de un nuevo laúd,
- y hoy se escucha el fluir melodioso
- en los himnos de la juventud.
- III
- Fértil madre de altiva progenie
- que sonríe ante el vano oropel,
- siempre atento a la luz del mañana
- y al pasado y su luz siempre fiel.
- IV
- La Sabana es un cielo caído,
- una alfombra tendida a tus pies
- y del mundo variado que animas
- eres brazo y cerebro a la vez.
- V
- Sobreviven de un reino dorado,
- de un imperio sin puestas de sol,
- en ti un templo, un escudo, una reja,
- un retablo, una pila, un farol.
- VI
- Al gran Caldas, que escruta los astros
- y a Bolívar, que torna a nacer;
- a Nariño, accionando la imprenta,
- como en los sueños los vuelves a ver.
- VII
- Caros, Cuervos y Pombos y Silcas,
- tantos hombres de fama inmortal,
- que en el hilo sin fin de la historia
- les dio vida tu amor maternal.
- VIII
- Flor de razas, compendio y corona,
- en la patria no hay otra ni habrá.
- Nuestra voz la repiten los siglos:
- ¡Bogotá... Bogotá... Bogotá!.
