Lyrics in Spanish Language
''Chorus''
Las glorias de la Patria,
sus fueros de Nación,
unidos defendamos
con ínclito valor.
I
Somos libres. Las férreas cadenas
del esclavo rompiéronse ya;
el hogar tachirense sonríe
bajo un sol todo luz:La igualdad.
II
Extinguidos los odios añejos
Perseguimos un solo ideal:
Que prospere la tierra nativa
Bajo un cielo de amor y de paz.
III
El trabajo es la fuerza suprema
Que nos lleva cual nuevo Titán
A la meta sublime y gloriosa
De los pueblos que saben triunfar.
IV
Que en el Táchira ondule por siempre
como enseña de honor regional,
con la unión y altivez de sus hijos,
el trabajo, la paz, la igualdad.
