Lyrics

Portuguese original[1] IPA transcription English translation

I
Sol, suor e o verde e mar,
Séculos de dor e esperança;
Esta é a terra dos nossos avós!
Fruto das nossas mãos,
Da flôr do nosso sangue:
Esta é a nossa pátria amada.

Coro:
Viva a pátria gloriosa!
Floriu nos céus a bandeira da luta.
Avante, contra o jugo estrangeiro!
𝄆 Nós vamos construir
Na pátria imortal
A paz e o progresso! 𝄇

II
Ramos do mesmo tronco,
Olhos na mesma luz:
Esta é a força da nossa união!
Cantem o mar e a terra
A madrugada e o sol
Que a nossa luta fecundou.

I
Sun, sweat, verdure and sea,
Centuries of pain and hope;
This is the land of our ancestors!
Fruit of our hands,
Of the flower of our blood:
This is our beloved fatherland.

Chorus:
Long live our glorious fatherland!
The banner of the struggle has fluttered in the skies.
Forward, against the foreign yoke!
𝄆 We are going to build
In our immortal fatherland
Peace and progress! 𝄇

II
Branches of the same trunk,
Eyes in the same light;
This is the force of our union!
The sea and the land sing,
The dawn and the sun
That our struggle fertilised!

Chorus
