Lyrics
Unitaria del moño celeste
Que del cielo copió tu color,
La guitarra de todos los barrios
Despertaban trigales de amor.
 
Unitaria del blanco vestido
Del vestido color de jazmín,
Bajo el cielo feliz de Barracas
Las auroras le oyeron decir:
 
General Don Juan Lavalle,
Cuando vengan tus tenientes,
Yo luciré como nunca
Mi vincha color celeste.
 
Para lucirla en el pecho
Del hombre que quiero yo,
Porque he de darle mi nombre
Junto con mi corazón.
English translation
Unitary of the sky-blue ribbon
That copied your color from the sky,
The guitar of all the neighborhoods
Awakened wheat fields of love.
 
Unitary of the white dress
Of the jasmine-colored dress,
Under the happy sky of Barracas
The auroras heard him say:
 
General Don Juan Lavalle,
When your lieutenants come,
I will wear as never before
My light blue headband.
 
To wear it on the chest
Of the man I love,
For I'll give him my name
Along with my heart.
