Song – Blue Mountains

Lyrics: Emilio Cubero
Music: Toas B. Narvaez
Blue mountains of Honduran land,
I would always want to live listening to the murmur
given by the pine trees and the cheerful fountain,
and sing with the birds their songs of love.
Blue mountains raised high to the sky,
the dawn tints them with soft carmine,
and the birds sing in the early mornings
serenades that brighten the distant horizon.
Blue mountains of Honduran land,
beloved mountains that saw me born,
blue mountains where the farmer strives
to fulfill his sacred duty to the land.
