Hino Nacional Impérial
D. Pedro I
Imperial National Anthem
Now you can, sons of the Homeland,
See the gentle Mother content!
Freedom has dawned
On the horizon of Brazil,
Freedom has dawned
Freedom has dawned
On the horizon of Brazil!
Brave Brazilian people
Far away, servile fear;
Either the Homeland remains free,
Or we die for Brazil.
Either the Homeland remains free,
Or we die for Brazil.
The chains that were forged for us
By astute perfidy,
A more powerful Hand came,
Brazil mocked them.
A more powerful Hand came
A more powerful Hand came
Brazil mocked them.
The August Royal Heir
Knowing the vile deception,
In spite of the Tyrants
Wanted to stay in his Brazil.
In spite of the Tyrants
In spite of the Tyrants
Wanted to stay in his Brazil.
Sad shadows resounded
From the cruel Civil War,
But they fled hastily
Seeing the Angel of Brazil.
But they fled hastily
But they fled hastily
Seeing the Angel of Brazil.
As soon as our manly cry
Echoed in the distant mountains;
On the immense shoulders soon
Brazil raised its head.
On the immense shoulders soon
On the immense shoulders soon
Brazil raised its head.
Sons, dear sons, cry out
And after a thousand affronts,
To avenge the black injury
Brazil calls you.
To avenge the black injury
To avenge the black injury
Brazil calls you.
Do not fear impious phalanxes,
Presenting a hostile face:
Your chests, your arms
Are the walls of Brazil.
Your chests, your arms
Your chests, your arms
Are the walls of Brazil.
Show Pedro your forehead
Intrepid and manly soul:
Have in him the Worthy Chief
Of this Empire of Brazil.
Have in him the Worthy Chief
Have in him the Worthy Chief
Of this Empire of Brazil.
Congratulations, oh Brazilians,
Already with manly grace
Among the Nations of the Universe
Shines that of Brazil.
Among the Nations of the Universe
Among the Nations of the Universe
Shines that of Brazil.
Congratulations; we are already free;
Already brilliant and lordly
The Assembly of Brazil
Will join in our homes.
The Assembly of Brazil
Will join in our homes
Will join in our homes
The Assembly of Brazil.
