I'm a singer from distant lands
I want to pay tribute to Portugal
Singing loudly for the whole world to hear
The wonders of this celestial land
Lisbon, Porto, are small paradises
Such a beautiful sky that I will always remember
Old Coimbra, Algarve behind the mountains
Today I will greet my song
Oh Portugal, why do I love you so much?
I've been happy since the moment I saw you
Oh Portugal, why do I love you so much?
Lovely land, you will always live in me
Could it be the scent of your roses?
Could it be that wine cheers the heart?
Oh Portugal, why do I love you so much?
Land of dreams, joy, and emotion
