Poor country of the world,

Pollutant, traffickers, unsafe, and

Baleada maker of the world.

People tell me you are corrupt,

I deem them;

Then they tell me you are small and poor,

I believe them; it is true, I have seen all of these in my country,

It is true; we are of the poorest countries of the world.

“And having answer so I turn once more to those who

Sneer at this my country, and I give them back the sneer

And say to them:”

The taller you are the harder you fall,

It is like a big tree being cut down.

So, show me another country that offers what my country offers:

Beautiful beaches and unity amongst the people.

Tell me of another country that

Every time it plays a soccer game,

Not only a team but also the whole country plays.

Strong like a bull, fierce as a shark, and wise as the owl.

This is my country, my loved Honduras,

Country of the entrepreneurs and hard working people

Proud of being the:

Poor country of the world,

Pollutant, traffickers, unsafe, and

Baleada maker of the world.
