Gloria Al Bravo Pueblo - Lyrics

Lyrics

Spanish

— Coro —
Gloria al bravo pueblo
que el yugo lanzó,
la Ley respetando
la virtud y honor.
— I —
¡Abajo cadenas!
Gritaba el Señor;
y el pobre en su choza
libertad pidió.
A este santo nombre
tembló de pavor
el vil egoísmo
que otra vez triunfó.
— II —
Gritemos con brío
¡Muera la opresión!
Compatriotas fieles,
la fuerza es la unión;
y desde el empíreo,
el Supremo Autor
un sublime aliento
al pueblo infundió.
— III —
Unida con lazos
que el cielo formó,
la América toda
existe en nación;
y si el despotismo
levanta la voz
seguid el ejemplo
que Caracas dió.

English

— Chorus —
Glory to the brave people
which shook off the yoke,
the Law respecting
virtue and honour. (repeat all)
— I —
“Down with the chains!” (repeat)
Cried out the Lord; (repeat)
and the poor man in his hovel
for freedom implored.
Upon this holy name ((repeat))
trembled in fear
the vile selfishness
that had once triumphed.
((repeat last four lines))
(((repeat last two lines)))
(Chorus)
— II —
Let’s scream out aloud: (repeat)
Down with oppression! (repeat)
Faithful countrymen,
your strength, lies in your unity;
and from the heavens ((repeat))
the supreme Creator
breathed a sublime spirit
into the nation.
((repeat last four lines))
(((repeat last two lines)))
(Chorus)
— III —
United by bonds (repeat)
made by heaven, (repeat)
all America exists
as a Nation;
and if that tyranny ((repeat))
raises its voice,
follow the example
given by Caracas.
((repeat last four lines))
(((repeat last two lines)))
(Chorus)
