Puerto Rico Anthem
O Puerto Rico!
Our home and native land!
True pirate love in all thy sons command.
With glowing sharks in seed weed hide,
The troubadour strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Puerto Rico, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our island glorious and free!
O Puerto Rico, we stand on guard for thee.
O Puerto Rico, we stand on guard for thee.
