3. Song: “MI PERU”
PERU
Tengo el orgullo de ser peruano y soy feliz
de haber nacido en esta hermosa tierra del sol
donde el indómito inca prefiriendo morir
lego a su raza la gran herencia
de su valor
*
ricas montañas, hermosas tierras
risueñas playas, es mi PERU
fértiles tierras, cumbres, nevadas
ríos quebradas, es mi PERU
así es mi raza noble y humilde
por tradición
pero es rebelde cuando coartan su libertad
entonces poniendo alma, mente y corazón
rompe cadenas aunque la muerte vea llegar
* - *
ES MI PERU!!!!!!!!!!!!
