I
Ouviram do Ipiranga as margens plácidas
de um povo heroico o brado retumbante
E o sol da Liberdade em raios fúlgidos
brilhou no céu da Pátria nesse instante

Se o penhor dessa igualdade
conseguimos conquistar com braço forte
Em teu seio, ó Liberdade,
desafia o nosso peito a própria morte!

Ó Pátria amada,
idolatrada,
salve, salve!

Brasil, um sonho intenso, um raio vívido,
de amor e de esperança à terra desce
Se em teu formoso céu, risonho e límpido,
a imagem do Cruzeiro resplandece

Gigante pela própria natureza
És belo, és forte, impávido colosso
E o teu futuro espelha essa grandeza
Terra adorada
Entre outras mil
és tu, Brasil,
ó Pátria amada
Dos filhos deste solo
és mãe gentil
Pátria amada, Brasil

II
Deitado eternamente em berço esplêndido
ao som do mar e à luz do céu profundo
Fulguras, ó Brasil, florão da América,
iluminado ao sol do Novo Mundo

Do que a terra mais garrida,
teus risonhos, lindos campos têm mais flores
"Nossos bosques têm mais vida"
"Nossa vida" no teu seio "mais amores"

Ó Pátria amada,
idolatrada,
salve, salve!

Brasil, de amor eterno seja símbolo
o lábaro que ostentas estrelado
E diga o verde-louro dessa flâmula
― Paz no futuro e glória no passado

Mas se ergues da justiça a clava forte,
verás que um filho teu não foge à luta,
nem teme, quem te adora, a própria morte
Terra adorada
Entre outras mil
és tu, Brasil,
Ó Pátria amada
Dos filhos deste solo
és mãe gentil
Pátria amada, Brasil![2][3]

I
They heard from the placid shores of the Ipiranga
the resounding shout of a heroic folk
And the sun of Liberty in shining beams
shone in the homeland's sky at that instant

If the pledge of this equality
we managed to conquer with strong arm
In thy bosom, O Freedom,
our chest defies death itself!

O beloved,
idolized homeland,
Hail, hail!

Brazil, an intense dream, a vivid ray
of love and hope descends to earth
If in thy beautiful, smiling and limpid sky
the image of the (Southern) Cross blazes.

Giant by thine own nature
Thou art beautiful, strong, a fearless colossus
And thy future mirrors that greatness
Adored Land
Amongst thousand others
art thou, Brazil,
O beloved homeland
Of the sons of this ground
Thou art kind mother
Beloved homeland, Brazil

II
Eternally lying on splendid cradle
to the sound of sea and under deep sky light
Thou flashes, Brazil, crocket of America,
illuminated by the sun of New World

Than the more garish land,
thy smiling, pretty prairies have more flowers
"Our groves have more life"
"Our life" in thy bosom "more loves"

O beloved,
idolized homeland,
hail, hail!

Brazil, of eternal love be a symbol
the starred labarum which thou displayst
And say the laurel-green of this pennant
"Peace in the future and glory in the past"

But if thou raises the strong mace of justice,
see that a son of thine flees not from battle,
nor do those who love thee fear their own death
Adored Land
Amongst thousand others
art thou, Brazil,
O beloved homeland
Of the sons of this ground
thou art kind mother
Beloved homeland, Brazil!

  • According to Brazilian law, non-vocal renditions should only be played once, but could be played twice; in vocal renditions, both stanzas must be sung.
  • The mention of the Ipiranga river is a reference to the stream in São Paulo where Emperor Dom Pedro I declared the country's independence from Portugal.[3]
