Song to Suchitepequez

I’m going to the South Coast
The train is already walking
leaving the station
my heart, with emotion
love beats

with my load of illusion
I’m going by the railway
upon reaching Patulul
of the blue sky
the rumor sprouts
from this song:

Suchitepéquez, precious,
fertile and beautiful land,
hot and lush land,
birthplace of Saint Dominic

I will sing to San Antonio,
to Chicacao and the sea…
I will sing to Cuyotenango,
to Tahuesco and Samayac.

Mazatenango, I would like
in your bustling station
see your beautiful women
like rosebuds.

With your avenue so wide
and joyful, Liberty…
Mazatenango, I dream
your carnival fair
