To the Rhythm

To the rhythm of your name,

and in every pavilion,

of your vast dimension

hides an eternal legacy,

of roots and fusions

that fill us with emotion.

To the rhythm of your name,

and to the sound of every melody,

of your strings and songs,

hearing you is glory

and memory in the seas.

While celebrating you

dancing to the beat of the cajón*,

is pure pride and tradition.

To the rhythm of your name,

Land of the Inca, blessed

and bicolored, we are your children,

your race and your blood,

united with fervor,

by your love.

Cajón*: a percussion instrument of Peruvian origin, consisting of a wooden box on which one strikes to produce a sound (as shown in the image below).
