- Anthem Lyrics English
The peaceful banks of the Ipiranga Heard the resounding cry of an heroic people, And the dazzling rays of the sun of Liberty Bathed our country in their brilliant light. If with strong arm we have succeeded In winning a pledge of equality, In thy bosom, O Liberty, Our hearts will defy death itself! O adored Fatherland, Cherished and revered, All hail! All Hail! Brazil, a dream sublime, vivid ray of love and hope to earth descends, Where in your clear, pure, beauteous skies The image of the Southern Cross shines forth. O country vast by nature, Fair and strong, brave and colossus, Thy future mirrors this thy greatness. O land adored Above all others, 'Tis thee Brazil, Beloved Fatherland! Thou art the gentle mother of the children of this soil, Beloved land, Brazil! II Laid out eternally in the splendor of nature, In the sound of the sea and the light of heaven, may thou shine, O Brazil, flower of America, Illumined by the sun of the New World! More flowers put forth in thy fair, smiling fields Than the in the most gorgeously reputed lands; "More life is to be found in the groves", "More love in our lives" in thy embrace. O adored Fatherland, Cherished and revered, All Hail! All Hail! May the star-scattered banner flown by thee, Brazil, become the symbol of eternal love, And may the green-gold flag proclaim always - Peace in the future and glory in the past - But if the mighty sword of justice drawn forth, You will perceive your children, who adore you, neither fear to fight, nor flee from death itself. O land adored Above all others, 'Tis thee Brazil, Beloved Fatherland! Thou art the gentle mother of the children of this soil, Beloved land, Brazil!
