*Dear land of Guyana, of rivers and plains*

*Made rich by the sunshine, and lush by the rains,*

*Set gem-like and fair, between mountains and seas,*

*Your children salute you, dear land of the free.*

*Green land of Guyana, our heroes of yore,*

*Both bondsmen and free, laid their bones on your shore.*

*This soil so they hallowed, and from them are we,*

*All sons of one Mother, Guyana the free.*

*Great land of Guyana, diverse though our strains,*

*We're born of their sacrifice, heirs of their pains,*

*And ours is the glory their eyes did not see,*

*One land of six peoples, united and free.*

*Dear land of Guyana, to you will we give,*

*Our homage, our service, each day that we live;*

*God guard you, great Mother, and make us to be*

*More worthy our heritage, land of the free.*
