Sonnet For Los Campitos
SONNET FOR LOS CAMPITOS TEAM
Orinoco flow to Andean peaks, the nation
Protests the chaos suffering and pain
Yet once more you young pilgrims made migration
To this distant shore from 'cross the Spanish Main
Not for refuge nor self-centred better life
But to represent beloved land with pride
Led with wisdom toward victory over strife
By a princess of the Nile who was your guide *
So let striving for success that's in your essence
Be revitalised once more for your return
Taking back with you your drive and luminescence
To a country seeking light for which it yearns
Your inspiring dedication may avail a
New resurgence and bring hope to Venezuela
* Her name: Aida
