In the Sorte mountain by way of the Yaracuy
In Venezuela, lives a goddess
In the Sorte mountain by way of the Yaracuy
Lives a goddess, a noble queen
Of great beauty and of great goodness
Beloved by nature
And illuminated by charity
And her walls are made of wind
And her roof is made of stars
The moon, the sun, the sky
And the mountain her companions
The rivers,streams, and flowers
Are her messengers
Oh Hail Queen, María Lionza
For Venezuela she's going with her onza
And is taking care of it
And she goes watching over her entire land
From the peasant to Cumaná
Taking care of the destiny of the Latinos
Living united and in liberty
In the Sorte Mountain by way of Yaracuy
In Venezuela
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
A bouquet of flowers, of white flowers
Like the purity of your goodness
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
All of the people up in Los Cerritos
And there in Caracas, protect them
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
Lady María, at all costs
To the East freeway I'm going to take it
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
And she goes taking care of her Venezuela
From the peasant to Cumaná
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
It was by way of the Guanaguanare River
That Coromoto saw her shining
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
She is the queen that the town adores
She is the most popular goddess
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
Flowers for your altar
Lady María, I'm going to take for you
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
With tobacco and liquor
The ceremony is going to start now
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
We say good-bye with a greeting
From Puerto Rico and from Panama
