Terra Dos Papagaios, Navegar Foi Preciso
Roger da Fazenda
Land of the Parrots, Sailing Was Essential
Brazil, Brazil, Brazil
To speak of you in poetry
Flipping through history
In the dark sea of imagination
I remember the enchanted journey
Calm seas changed the course
At Unidos da Tijuca in this celebration
Showcasing the value of this unity
Caravels to the sea, expedition
Thanks, Cabral, what an emotion
Land in sight!
The dawn of this nation
The native, the wildlife, the plants
Paradise of charm and seduction
In this meeting with the Portuguese
A moment so divine
Each became a brother
Praying the mass
Everyone in communion
Brazil, you’re no longer a child
And following my destiny
Wherever it may lead
I’ll rediscover you every day
In the greatness of your people
And in your promising land
It’s beautiful to see
Your flag waving high
And share this joy with the crowd
Peace, love, and hope
A voice announced
A new era has arrived
Blessed by the Creator
