Lyrics
Uruguaya, reina de las Diosas,
por tu garbo y tu gracia gentil,
yo te ofrezco un palacio de rosas
con dinteles de oro y marfil.

¡Por qué no amar,
si es mi querer
el mirarme en tus ojos de hada
y embriagarme de dicha y placer!

Un palacio, uruguaya, que encierra
el ensueño, la dicha, el amor;
donde unir nuestro encanto quisiera
con tus besos de extraño calor.

¡Por qué no amar,
si es mi querer
el mirarme en tus ojos de hada
y embriagarme de dicha y placer!

En mi alma te llevo prendida
mi tesoro, mi Estro, mi ideal;
y serás la mujer preferida
que amaré, ¡oh, mi Reina Oriental!
English translation
Uruguayan, queen of the Goddesses,
for your panache and your gentle grace,
I offer you a palace of roses
with lintels of gold and ivory.

Why not to love,
if it is my desire
to look into your fairy eyes
and intoxicate me with joy and pleasure!

A palace, Uruguayan girl, that encloses
the reverie, the joy, the love;
where I would like to unite our enchantment
with your kisses of strange warmth.

Why not to love
if it is my desire
to look into your fairy eyes
and intoxicate me with joy and pleasure!

In my soul I hold you fast
my treasure, my Estro, my ideal;
and you will be the favorite woman
that I will love, oh, my Oriental Queen!
