(in English)
I’ve been to every state we have
and I think that I'm inclined to say
that Rhody stole my heart
You can keep the forty nine
Herring gulls that dot the sky,
blue waves that paint the rocks,
waters rich with Neptune's life,
the boats that line the docks,
I see the lighthouse flickering,
to help the sailors see.
There's a place for everyone:
Rhode Island, it's for me.
Rhode Island, oh, Rhode Island,
surrounded by the sea.
Some people roam the earth for home;
Rhode Island, it's for me.

I love the fresh October days,
the buzz on College Hill,
art that moves an eye to tear,
a jeweler’s special skill.
Icicles refract the sun,
snow falling gracefully.
Some search for a place that’s warm:
Rhode Island, it's for me.
Rhode Island, oh, Rhode Island,
surrounded by the sea.

The skyline piercing Providence,
the State House dome so rare,
residents who speak their minds;
No longer unaware!
Roger Williams would be proud,
to see his “colony”,
so don't sell short this precious port:
Rhode Island, it's for me.
