Aruba appreciated native land
our venerated cradle
you may be small and simple
but yet you are respected.Chorus:
Oh Aruba dear country
our rock so beloved
our love for you is so strong
that nothing can destroy it. (repeat)Your beaches so much admired
with palm trees all adorned
your coat of arms and flag

The greatness of our people
is their great cordiality
that God may guide and preserve

Aruba waardeerde inheems land
Onze vereerd wieg
U kunt klein en eenvoudig zijn
Maar nog bent u geacht.Koor:
Oh Aruba lieve land
Onze rots zo geliefd
Onze liefde voor u is zo sterk
Die niets het kan vernietigen. (Herhaling)Uw stranden bewonderden zo veel
Met palmbomen alle versierde
Uw jas van armen en markeer
Is de trots van ons iedereen!Koor
De grootsheid van onze mensen
Is hun geweldige hartelijkheid
Die God kan gidsen en bewaren
Zijn liefde voor vrijheid!Koor
