Hymn to the Virgin of Coromoto

  • Hail, jubilant dawn of a sovereign homeland;

    that blesses and acclaims you with its glorious stories.

    Hail, Virgin of the Plains, always alive with love.

    You captivate the heart of every Venezuelan.

    Flowers of snow in the Andes, waves of blue in the sea,

    everything tells me a song, to rhyme your goodness.

    In the tri-colored folds of the flagship flag

    Venezuela keeps all of its Virgin's loves.

Hail Mary of Coromoto

  • You came down from heaven

    Mother of the Lord

    Guanare is the soil

    Your kingdom of love

    The Beautiful Lady

    to the Indian asked

    seek baptism

    is salvation

    Hail Hail Hail Mary (encore)

    And so went the cacique

    Filled with emotion

    He asks Juan Sanchez

    His guide in the mission

    And the whole tribe

    mountain under

    and the great Sacrament

    thus received.

    Hail Hail Hail Mary (encore)

    And without understanding

    the chieftain

    the chieftain rebelled

    And fled to the jungle

    Returning to his hut

    the Virgin arrived

    the Indian family

    I find blessing.

    Ave Ave Ave Maria (bis)

    In fury the cacique

    His weapons he took

    but he was blinded

    of the great radiance

    The Virgin Mary

    disappeared

    leaving in her hand

    her Seal of Love

    Hail Hail Hail Mary (encore)

    Escape that Indian

    could not have imagined

    That a vile serpent

    To bite him

    Repentance

    was not long in coming

    he was baptized

    and to heaven to go.

    Ave Ave Ave Maria (encore)

    All of Venezuela

    together with Christ the King

    with joy they acclaim you

    surrendered at your feet.

    Mother Coromoto

    renew the faith of

    of all this homeland

    of the world as well.

    Chorus: Hail, Hail, Hail Mary

"I Consecrate Myself to You, Virgin of Coromoto".

  • to promote the love and veneration of Our Lady of Coromoto, patroness of Venezuela. It is inspired by the following consecration:

    I consecrate myself to you, O beautiful virgin.

    I consecrate myself to you, mother of the plains

    I consecrate myself to you, Virgin of Coromoto

    Patroness of Venezuela

    I consecrate myself to you, beautiful lady

    I consecrate myself to you, smiling virgin

    I consecrate myself to you, lady of the waters

    You are the living virgin, thrice crowned.

    Of all the invocations in the world

    You are the living virgin, who stayed in Guanare

    So that the natives would convert

    Thus, uniting the peoples of both races.

    When you appeared to the Indian Coromoto

    You left the reliquary, with your precious image

    That years later shows, when being analyzed

    Surprising details, all our past.

    I consecrate myself to you, oh beautiful virgin

    I consecrate myself to you, mother of the plains

    I consecrate myself to you, Virgin of Coromoto

    Patroness of Venezuela

    I consecrate myself to you, beautiful lady

    I consecrate myself to you, smiling virgin

    I consecrate myself to you, lady of the waters

    You are the living virgin, thrice crowned.

    Today we cry out to you, Mother, to raise to your Son

    The petition of the people, suffering and oppressed

    Who in a valley of tears, find themselves helpless

    Help us, lady of Tucupido

    I consecrate myself to you, O beautiful Virgin

    I consecrate myself to you, mother of the plains

    I consecrate myself to you, Virgin of Coromoto

    Patroness of Venezuela

    I consecrate myself to you, Beautiful Lady

    I consecrate myself to you, smiling virgin

    I consecrate myself to you, lady of the waters

    You are the living virgin, thrice crowned.

    I consecrate myself to you

    I consecrate myself to you

    I consecrate myself to you...
