The "Anthem of Aragon" is the regional anthem of Aragon, an autonomous community in Spain. The lyrics were written by four Aragonese poets: Ildefonso Manuel Gil, Ángel Guinda, Rosendo Tello and Manuel Vilas, and the music was composed by Spanish composer Antón García Abril.[1][2]
Another anthem, "Canto a la libertad", is often regarded as de facto anthem for the region of Aragon.[3]

Nos ha llevado el tiempo al confín de los sueños. |
Нос а льевандо эл тиемпо ал конфин де лос суэнёс. |
English translation[]
Time has taken us to the edge of dreams.
A new day spreads its wings from the sun.
O drums of the north wind, draw back the clouds,
and may our voice ascend to the heights.
The passing of the centuries marked out thy destiny,
which calls thee to justice and freedom.
Thy fields, open to the sky, will sprout
with the green wheat spike, golden grape clusters,
and the imperishable olive tree of peace.
Chorus:
Light of Aragon, tower in the wind, bell of solitude!
May thy zeal spread, a river without bounds, thy reason, thy truth!
Victor o'er so much oblivion, memory of eternity,
a people of so many men and women, Aragon, thou wilt live!
Time is shining;
The age's now arrived
for the rock to be flowing with water
to link our lives
and modulate our voices.
From the white peaks where snow is sleeping
to the red plains swayed by the blue air,
a clear sky kindles, its face in the water,
its crowns radiant with light.
Let us open the windows, so that the night may sing,
and to the rhythm of life, in a ring of love,
souls will embrace, caught by the dawn.
May hope shine, may the roads open out
into the land as serious as a heart.
Chorus
Open land, great people, Aragon!
My homeland, my homeland, Aragon!
