Como a aurora precursora
Do farol da divindade
Foi o vinte de setembro
O precursor da liberdade

Mostremos valor, constância

Nesta ímpia e injusta guerra

Sirvam nossas façanhas

De modelo a toda terra

De modelo a toda terra

Sirvam nossas façanhas

De modelo a toda terra

Like the precursory dawn
At the lighthouse of divinity
It was the twentieth of September
The precursor of liberty

Let us show value, constancy

In this impious, unfair war

Let our prowess serve

As a model to every land

As a model to every land

Let our prowess serve

As a model to every land

Like the shining pioneer dawn
From the beacon of divinity
Was September the twentieth
The herald of our Liberty

Let us show then valor, constancy

In this impious, injust war

May our prowess serve us

As a model for the world (for the world)

For the whole world may our prowess be a model

Be a model for the whole world

Entre nós revive Atenas
Para assombro dos tiranoso
Sejamos gregos na gloria
E na virtude, romanos

Mostremos valor, constância

Nesta ímpia e injusta guerra

Sirvam nossas façanhas

De modelo a toda terra

De modelo a toda terra

Sirvam nossas façanhas

De modelo a toda terra

Between us Athenas revives
For the tirants haunt
Let us be greeks in glory
And in virtue, romans

Let us show value, constancy

In this impious, unfair war

Let our prowess serve

As a model to every land

As a model to every land

Let our prowess serve

As a model to every land

Between us Athenas revives
For the tirants haunt
Let us be greeks in glory
And in virtue, romans

Let us show then valor, constancy

In this impious, injust war

May our prowess serve

As a model for the world (for the world)

For the whole world may our prowess be a model

Be a model for the whole world

Mas não basta pra ser livre
Ser forte, aguerrido e bravo
Povo que não tem virtude
Acaba por ser escravo

Mostremos valor, constância

Nesta ímpia e injusta guerra

Sirvam nossas façanhas

De modelo a toda terra

De modelo a toda terra

Sirvam nossas façanhas

De modelo a toda terra

But, to be free, it is not enough
To be strong, fearless and brave
(For) People without virtue
Ends up being enslaved

Let us show value, constancy

In this impious, unfair war

Let our prowess serve

As a model to every land

As a model to every land

Let our prowess serve

As a model to every land

But it won't suffice to be free
Being strong, bold and brave
People lacking virtue
Is fated to be enslaved

Let us show then valor, constancy

In this impious, injust war

May our prowess serve

As a model for the world (for the world)

For the whole world may our prowess be a model

Be a model for the whole world
