isla de mis amores,		land of all that I love
isla de flores		my garden of flowers
solo pienso en tí.		I think only of you.
Puerto Rico		Puerto Rico,
de bellos palmares,		of beautiful palm trees,
tus dulces cantares		your sweet odes
viven en mí.		live within me.
Puerto Rico		Puerto Rico
isla primorosa,		delicate isle
isla preciosa		precious island
donde yo nací,		where I was born,
En tu suelo		From this land
ví la luz del cielo,		I first saw the light of the sky
y entre tus palmas		and within your palms
quiero morir.		I want to be put to rest.
