A Portuguesa (Portugal’s National Anthem) Lyrics[Verse 1]
Heroes of the sea, noble people
Valiant and immortal nation
Raise once again today
The splendor of Portugal!
Among the haze of memory
Oh Fatherland, one feels the voice
Of your distinguished forefathers
That shall lead you on to victory!
[Chorus]
To arms, to arms!
Over land, over sea
To arms, to arms!
For the Fatherland, fight!
Against the cannons, march on, march on!
[Verse 2]
Hoist the undefeated flag
In the lively light of your sky!
May Europe cry out to the whole Earth:
Portugal has not perished
Kiss your merry ground
The ocean, roaring with love
And your victorious arm
Gave new worlds to the world!
[Chorus]
To arms, to arms!
Over land, over sea
To arms, to arms!
For the Fatherland, fight!
Against the cannons, march on, march on!
[Verse 3]
Salute the Sun that rises
Over a gleeful future;
Let the echo of an offense
Be the sign for a comeback
Rays of this strong dawn
Are like a mother’s kisses
That keep us, sustain us
Against the injuries of fate
[Chorus]
To arms, to arms!
Over land, over sea
To arms, to arms!
For the Fatherland, fight!
Against the cannons, march on, march on!
