O Ribatejo cumpre o desejo
De roubar um beijo duma boca em chama
Como o campino cumpre o destino
De ser peregrino na terra que ama
Lezíria nova que pões à prova
A mais linda trova dum peito marcado
Lezíria amiga, paixão antiga
És poema com sabor a fado
Tudo é diferente na nossa gente
Que no peito sente a força duma vida
Tudo tem cor, tudo tem calor
E o Sol do amor, hora prometida
A natureza tem mais beleza
E tem a nobreza dum peito ancestral
Ai Ribatejo do meu desejo
Só em ti vejo o Sol de Portugal
