Now you can from the Fatherland children
To see the kind Mother happy;
Freedom has dawned
On the horizon of Brazil
Freedom has dawned
Freedom has dawned
On the horizon of Brazil
brave brazilian people
Far go, slavish fear;
Or let the homeland be free,
Or die for Brazil.
Or let the homeland be free,
Or die for Brazil.
The shackles that forged us
From perfidy cunning ruse,
There was a mightier Hand,
Brazil mocked them.
There was a mightier hand
There was a mightier hand
Brazil mocked them.
The Royal Heir Augustus
Knowing vile deceit,
In spite of the Tyrants
I wanted to stay in your Brazil.
In spite of the Tyrants
In spite of the Tyrants
I wanted to stay in your Brazil.
Sad shadows resounded
Of the cruel Civil War,
But they ran away
Seeing the Angel of Brazil.
But they ran away
But they ran away
Seeing the Angel of Brazil.
Barely sounded on the mountain range in the distance
Our manly cry;
On huge shoulders soon
The head raises Brazil.
On huge shoulders soon
On huge shoulders soon
The head raises Brazil.
Fear not impious phalanxes,
Who present a hostile face:
Your breasts, your arms
They are walls of Brazil.
Your breasts, your arms
Your breasts, your arms
They are walls of Brazil.
Congratulations, oh Brazilians,
Already with manly garb
From the Universe among the Nations
That of Brazil shines.
From the Universe among the Nations
From the Universe among the Nations
That of Brazil shines.
