VĒRGALE
We live in Latvia
And we are so glad
That we have
Such a beautiful land.
With so many woods
And so many lakes
With beautiful rivers
And very green plains.
And there is the sea
Where the sun sets each day
And on the beach
We like to play.
We are so happy
We are so glad
Because Latvia is
Our Motherland
