Mi Peru
Eva Ayllón Lyrics

Qué lindo es mi Perú
Qué hermosa tierra
Qué lindo es mi Perú
Qué hermosa tierra
De América del Sur
Es la primera
La brisa de su mar
La voz de su cantar
Su bella historia
Su pasado ejemplar

Incario colosal
Santos y gloria
Qué lindo es mi Perú

Patria querida
El lugar donde Dios,
Me dio la vida
Cuando llegue a morir
Le quisiera quisiera decir
Si voy al Cielo
Te agradezco señor
Por nacer y vivir
En este suelo(Bis)
Qué lindo es mi Perú!
Qué hermosa tierra!
Qué lindo es mi Perú
Qué hermosa tierra
de América del Sur
Es la primera
La brisa de su mar
La voz de su cantar
Su bella historia
Su pasado ejemplar
Incario colosal
Santos y gloria
Qué lindo es mi Perú
Patria querida
El lugar donde Dios,
Me dio la vida
Cuando llegue a morir
Le quisiera quisiera decir
Si voy al Cielo
Te agradezco señor
Por nacer y vivir
En este suelo
En este suelo
Mi Perú es un tesoro lleno de flores y primaveras
Sus caballos, sus toros, sus gallos, sus marineras
No hay como sus mujeres blancas, negras y cholitas
De estrellas que iluminan a nuestra raza bendita
No hay en toda la tierra más encanto y hermosura
Es como un libro abierto de misterios y aventuras
Cumbres, ríos y lagos, costas, selvas y volcanes
Este es mi país
De aquí no me voy
Yo soy muy feliz
Peruano yo soy
Peruano, peruano yo soy
Qué lindo es mi Perú
Patria querida...
