Hino do Maranhão Hinos de Unidos (English Translation) Lyrics

Amid the rumor of ancient forests
One day you heard in the blue space, vibrating
The roar of cannons in battles
Then, a festive anthem resounding

The roar of cannons in battles
Then, a festive anthem resounding
Then, a festive anthem resounding

Hail Homeland, beloved Homeland!
Maranhão, Maranhão, cradle of heroes
For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors

For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors
For deity, our ancestors

It was war, victory, death, and life
And, with victory, glory intertwined
The invader’s strange audacity fell
The golden light of justice emerged

The invader’s strange audacity fell
The golden light of justice emerged
The golden light of justice emerged

Hail Homeland, beloved Homeland!
Maranhão, Maranhão, cradle of heroes
For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors

For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors
For deity, our ancestors

You repressed the Flemish adventurer
And forced him to seek shelter at sea
And two centuries later, you told the Portuguese
Freedom is the Sun that gives us life

And two centuries later, you told the Portuguese
Freedom is the Sun that gives us life
Freedom is the Sun that gives us life

Hail Homeland, beloved Homeland!
Maranhão, Maranhão, cradle of heroes
For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors

For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors
For deity, our ancestors

When you reached out to your sisters arms
It was with glory shining from your face
Always surrounded by your celestial light
Homeland of heroes, you have marched forward

Always surrounded by your celestial light
Homeland of heroes, you have marched forward
Homeland of heroes, you have marched forward

Hail Homeland, beloved Homeland!
Maranhão, Maranhão, cradle of heroes
For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors

For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors
For deity, our ancestors

And on the splendid road of the future
You gaze, proud and dominant
May the future give you the glories of the past
May your entire existence be of glory

May the future give you the glories of the past
May your entire existence be of glory
May your entire existence be of glory

Hail Homeland, beloved Homeland!
Maranhão, Maranhão, cradle of heroes
For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors

For motto, you have glory
For deity, our ancestors
For deity, our ancestors
