Himno a Barranquilla

Abstract

Barranquilla, prócera e inmortal

Ceñida de agua y madurada al sol

Savia joven del árbol nacional.

 

Del jubiloso porvenir crisol

Ilusión de Caribe blanco-azul

De Colombia tendida en el umbral

Da su voz y su músculo al progreso

Barranquilla, prócera e inmortal.

 

Barrancas de San Nicolás

con el Magdalena detrás.

 

Coronada de firme amanecer 

te conduce en su espalda el porvenir:

las sirenas de fábrica y taller

son rumor arterial de tu existir.

 

Barranquilla sabe cantar 

y sobre el yunque martillar.

 

Tajamares de Bocas de Ceniza

Cuchillada del río sobre el mar

al Caribe central colombianiza 

tu robusta aptitud de navegar.
