By Hernán Ortiz Noriega (Rola)
Nuestro Lajas, pueblito querido
En mi pecho tienes un altar,
Orgulloso estoy de haber nacido
En tus campos que no he de olvidar.
Faro y luz serás de Puerto Rico
Con tu Estación Experimental,
Con el riego en tu Valle bendito,
La Parguera que no hay otra igual.
Yo te añoro en mi ausencia y suspiro
Por tus piñas de fama mundial....
Y en mis noches de ensueño deliro
con tus montes, tu valle y tu mar.
