Talita Cumi

Venezuela abre los ojos y despierta

Venezuela, open your eyes and wake up

Ya es hora de levantarte

It's time to rise

Muchos lloran por ti al mirarte

Many cry for you as they look at you

Hay unos que dicen que estás muerta

There are some who say you are dead

Que la tierra está seca

That the land is dry

Y hay otros que dicen que todos se fueron

And there are others who say everyone left

Y los que te amaban mintieron

And those who loved you lied

Pero Jesús te dice que solo duermes

But Jesus tells you that you only sleep

Y la última palabra él la tiene

And the last word, he has it

Que a través de ti se glorificara

That through you, he will be glorified

Talita Cumi, niña, te digo levántate, Venezuela

Talita Cumi, girl, I tell you to rise, Venezuela

Humillate tu tierra sanaré

Humiliate yourself, I will heal your land

Talita Cumi, quien se burlaba de ti creerá que era verdad

Talita Cumi, those who mocked you will believe it was true

Que solo dormías, pero hoy caminas

That you were only sleeping, but today you walk

Venezuela, eres mi niña

Venezuela, you are my girl
