Dedicated to the people of Puerto Rico whose courage, determination and faith were inspirational.

lyrics

Verse 1
You came to our magical island,
like the scent of a beautiful woman you swept us away
We took heed of your of your heartbreaking power,
We huddled together held hands and prayed

Chorus
Maria, Maria
Your winds were fierce as you tore our island apart
Maria, Maria
You took our power and water, but you cant break our hearts

Verse 2
Your winds, stripped the land of it’s beauty,
the island was drenched as our tears flooded the streets
Our beaches and trees, cried from your fury,
but when you left us alone, we rose to our feet

Chorus
Maria, Maria
Your winds were fierce as you tore our island apart
Maria, Maria
You took our power and water, but you cant break our hearts

Bridge
With our faith, we are stronger than ever, together we stand, proud to be here
Life will return to the forests and shoreline, Puerto Rico our home, we love you so dear

Chorus
Maria, Maria
Your winds were fierce as you tore our island apart
Maria, Maria
You took our power and water, but you cant break our hearts
