The anthem of the Aragua State, Venezuela, has lyrics composed by Ramón Bastidas, with music made by Manuel Betancourt.
Nuestro pueblo vibró de coraje cuando esclava la patria gimió, como ruge, del yugo al ultraje, con ira potente soberbio el león.
our people vibrated from courage when enslaved our fatherland cried, how it roars, from yoke to rape, with powerful rage proudly the lion.
in the bloody field of Mars freedom to the fatherland was offered by the immortal deed of Ricaurte, that in Araguan land his Olimpus found.
Crowned with glory were our hills when Ribas the sword brandished, and in his Homeric pursuit La Victoria with oppressing blood its fields sprayed.
