To Mount Teide the Guanches prayed
and quelled its fiery mouth
for they well knew its lava slew
all that fell in its path.
Little is known and their lineage sown
shadowed in mystery,
from tropic land to tepid sand
they ventured out to sea.
Of Mauritanians it was claimed,
spoke with tranquil grace,
perhaps the Guanches descended
from this beloved race.
Their smile charmed Tenerife Isle
with traits that set them apart;
honor, virtue and courage; but true
devotion ruled their heart.
Proud, with a noble demeanor,
skilled, athletically blessed,
features as fair as island air
beautified each giving breath.
