From the shores of Cache La Pourde
comes the fabulous father, R-Lee
with his gracious princess, Cassia.
Beautiful is the sun oh, friends of the sea turtles
when you come so far to save us
all Costa Rica in peace awaits you.
never bloomed Costa Rica so gaily
never shone the sun so brightly
as today it shines and blossoms
when you come so far to serve us
