Mexican National Anthem - National Anthem of Mexico
Mexicans, to the cry of war
Ready the steel and the bridle
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
I
Crown, oh, Fatherland! Your olive temples
With the divine archangel of peace
That in heaven your eternal destiny
Was written by God's finger
But if a foreign enemy should dare
To profane with his foot your soil
Think, oh beloved Fatherland! That heaven
Gave you a soldier in each son
Gave you a soldier in each son!
Mexicans, to the cry of war
Ready the steel and the bridle
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
V
War, war! Without truce to whoever
Attempts to stain the nation's emblems
War, war! Let the patriotic banners
Be soaked in waves of blood
War, war! In the mountains, in the valleys
Let the thunderous cannons roar
And let the resounding echoes
With the voices of Union! Liberty!
With the voices of Union! Liberty!
Mexicans, to the cry of war
Ready the steel and the bridle
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
VI
Before, Fatherland, that your unarmed sons
Bend their necks under the yoke
May your fields be watered with blood
May their foot be stamped on blood
And may your temples, palaces, and towers
Collapse with a dreadful crash
And may their ruins exist saying
Here was the homeland of a thousand heroes
Here was the homeland of a thousand heroes!
Mexicans, to the cry of war
Ready the steel and the bridle
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
And let the earth's centers tremble
To the resounding roar of the cannon
X
Fatherland! Fatherland!, your sons swear to you
To breathe their last breath on your altars
If the bugle with its warlike accent
Calls them to fight with valor
For you the olive garlands!
A memory of glory for them!
A laurel of victory for you!
A tomb of honor for them!
A tomb of honor for them!
