Hino de Franca - SP

I

Hail Franca, beloved city,
Golden gem of Brazilian land,
Your work is a fierce struggle,
Under the paternal light of the Southern Cross.

In the sanctuary of a thousand workshops,
Your civic spirit is holier and purer,
Through labor you teach everyone
The path of light towards the future.

Chorus

Youth, let us remember
The ancestral bravery,
And the purity,
The beauty
Of this unrivaled land,

Serenaders, let us evoke
An immortal past,
For in the present greatness,
Shines the grateful certainty
Of an unparalleled future.

II

You are the pinnacle of São Paulo's greatness,
Sown in your enchanting land:
Your coffee is seen in alleys,
Sovereign, in its lofty kingdom.
Hail Franca of golden afternoons,
Three gentle, smiling hills:
I recall your past glories,
We dream of other glories in the present!
