Portuguese National Anthem



A Portuguesa

Heróis do mar, nobre povo,
Nação valente, imortal,
Levantai hoje de novo
O esplendor de Portugal!
Entre as brumas da memória,
Ó Pátria, sente-se a voz
Dos teus egrégios avós,
Que há-de guiar-te à vitória!

Às armas, às armas!
Sobre a terra, sobre o mar,
Às armas, às armas!
Pela Pátria lutar!
Contra os canhões, marchar, marchar!


English Lyrics

Heroes of the sea, noble people,
Brave, immortal nation,
Raise today once more
The splendor of Portugal!
Between the mists of memory,
Oh Fatherland, the voice is felt
Of your egregious forefathers,
That shall lead you to victory!

Chorus

Over the land, over the sea,
To arms, to arms!
For our Fatherland, fight!
Against the cannons, march, march!

Na Orla do Mar

A portuguese poem of Eugenio de Andrade...A Orla do Mar...I read it yesterday in my last logopedie lesson...:-)
A very special moment to me, to read portuguese poetry...they didn't understand the words, but they liked the way I read the poem...and I was glad, because I wanted they feel the beauty of our poetry...;-)

NA ORLA DO MAR

Na orla do mar,
no rumor do vento,
onde esteve a linha
pura do teu rosto
ou só pensamento
- e mora, secreto,
intenso, solar,
todo o meu desejo -
aí vou colher
a rosa e a palma.
Onde a pedra é flor,
onde o corpo é alma.

Eugenio de Andrade (1956)
