The anthem for the Cojedes State, Venezuela, has lyrics by Mauricio Pérez Lazo. The music that accompains it was composed by Miguel Ángel Granados. A pecualiar fact is that this anthem has only one stanza.
Chorus
En las pampas que surca el Cojedes
y fecundan los rayos del sol
¡ Paz y leyes proclama el llanero
Libertad y Derechos y Honor!
I
¡ Defendamos la Patria gloriosa
que Bolívar el grande fundó!
¡ Invencible será nuestro empuje
si nos brinda su fuerza la unión.
Chorus
In the Pampas that furrows Cojedes
and fertilize the rays of the sun
Peace and laws proclaims the llanero
Freedom and Rights and Honor!
I
We must defend the glorious Mother country
that Bolivar the great one founded!
Invincible will be our push
if the union offers to us.
