Colonia del Sacramento
Flor de la Banda Oriental
Enfrente de Buenos Aires
Junto al río como mar
Pasito a paso, la vecindad
Mano en la mano, bajando va
Por calles de piedra bola
Y farola colonial
A mirar desde la orilla
Como a santo en el altar
Un Sol con los rayos tiesos
Pintaditos de azafrán
Calor, sauzal
Los ojos de par en par
Y el Sol en el horizonte
Con su manto virreinal
Colonia del Sacramento
Flor de la Banda Oriental
Enfrente de Buenos Aires
Junto al río como mar
Pasito a paso, la vecindad
Reja por reja deshojará
Jazmines y madreselvas
Por España y Portugal
El rumor tiene en la plaza
Pajarera de cristal
Y un ocio del tiempo e'ñaupa
Toma mate en el umbral
Gentil ciudad
De fábula y de verdad
Jardín de propaladoras
Flor de la Banda Oriental
