Flag History

The colors represent the politcal parties. Blue is for the Conservative and red for the Liberals. The white symbolizes the peace between them. The blue is also for the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean. Red is also for the blood of those who lost their lives for their country. The blue star represents the civic virtues of purity and honesty. The red star is for authority and law.

Anthem Lyrics

Chorus





Alcanzamos por fin la victoria


en el campo feliz de la unión;


con ardientes fulgores de gloria


se ilumina la nueva nacion.





Verses





Es preciso cubrir con un velo


del pasado el calvario y la cruz;


y que adorne el azul de tu cielo


de concordia la esplendida luz.





El progreso acaricia tus lares


al compás de sublime canción;


ves rugir a tus pies ambos mares


que dan rumbo a tu noble misión.





En tu suelo cubierto de flores,


a los besos del tibio terral,


terminaron guerreros fragores;


solo reina el amor fraternal.





Adelante la pica y la pala,


al trabajo sin mas dilación;


y seremos asi prez y gala,


de este mundo feraz de Colón.
