«HEROES of the SEA, Noble People, BRAVE and Immortal NATION! Raise up high today and once again the SPLENDOUR of Portugal!!... From the mists of memory, Oh Homeland we hear the voices of your great forefathers that shall lead us to VICTORY!!... (CHORUS) To arms, to arms!!! On land and sea!!! To arms, to arms!!!To fight for our Homeland!!! March against the cannons!!! Unfurl the UNCONQUERABLE flag in the bright light of your SKY! Cry out to all Europe and the whole World that PORTUGAL HAS NOT PERISHED!!! Your happy land is kissed by the OCEAN that murmurs with LOVE. And your conquering arm has given NEW WORLDS TO THE WORLD!!! (CHORUS) Salute the SUN that rises on a smiling future: let the echo of an insult be the signal for our revival!!!... The rays of that powerful dawn are like a mother's kiss that protect us and support us against the insults of fate. (CHORUS).» (english translation by Sailor Girl of the Portuguese National Anthem)
