Brasilia
A strange place to be of this earth.
In gold is what your weight is worth.
You are the capital of your proud nation.
You are worthy of many an oblation.
This city receives much admiration.
In this nation’s interior you continue to grow,
as a combination of Olympus and El Dorado.
There is no other location like this here.
You are the crown jewel of the Southern Hemisphere.
You have called your citizens in from the coast.
In the interior, you are the new host.
Throughout the world, may you light and lead.
In every endeavor shall you succeed.
Brazil
