Venezuela Proposed National Anthem by Hugo Chavez [Patria Querida-Himno Bravos de Apure]

Similar to the case of the Gaddafi Anthem of Libya, whose origin was a simple march of the Egyptian army, the Dictator Hugo Chavez had in his crazy mind to change the National Anthem for the "Bravos de Apure Anthem", the anthem of a military Tank Battalion of the State of Apure, where he began his military career. His fanaticism was so great that he sang it at every public event and even on television.
The idea of ​​changing the National Anthem was not possible for two reasons, the first was that his fanaticism with Simon Bolivar prevented the change from being made (change "Gloria al Bravo Pueblo" is traition to Bolivar) but at the same time it was one of his dreams due to his self-fanaticism of the cult of personality. The second and main reason is that he died in 2013, and the new Dictator Maduro was no longer interested in the idea, even though it continues to be sung in honor of Hugo Chavez.

Patria Querida.
Himno del Batallón Blindado Bravos de Apure.
Letra y Musica: Heriberto Maluenga

I
Al rumor de clarines guerreros
Ocurre el blindado ocurre veloz
Con celosos dragones de acero
Que guardan la Patria que el cielo nos dió

CORO
Patria, Patria, Patria Querida
Tuyo es mi cielo, tuyo es mi sol
Patria, Patria, tuya es mi vida,
tuya es mi alma, tuyo es mi amor.

II
Tiembla la tierra, vibra el espacio
cuando el blindado corre marcial
con su consigna de amar la patria
y su esperanza de honrarla más

CORO
Patria, Patria, Patria Querida
Tuyo es mi cielo, tuyo es mi sol
Patria, Patria, tuya es mi vida,
tuya es mi alma, tuyo es mi amor.

III
Paso, Paso, Paso al Blindado
Nada en la Lucha lo detendrá
Si halla la muerte gana la gloria
Y con la gloria la eternidad.

IV
Paso al Blindado, Nadie pretenda
Cambiar su ruta de Integridad
Porque ha jurado vivir con honra
Y esta ni muerto la perdera.

CORO
Patria, Patria, Patria Querida
Tuyo es mi cielo, tuyo es mi sol
Patria, Patria, tuya es mi vida,
tuya es mi alma, tuyo es mi amor.
