Sing, Brazil

Gal Costa

Canta Brasil

As selvas te deram nas noites teus ritmos bárbaros
E os negros trouxeram de longe reservas de pranto
Os brancos falaram de amor em suas canções
E dessa mistura de vozes nasceu o teu canto

Brasil, minha voz enternecida
Já dourou os teus brasões
Na expressão mais comovida
Das mais ardentes canções

Também, na beleza deste céu
Onde o azul é mais azul
Na aquarela do Brasil
Eu cantei de norte a sul

Mas agora o teu cantar
Meu Brasil, quero escutar
Nas preces da sertaneja
Nas ondas do rio-mar

Oh! Esse rio turbilhão
Entre selvas e rojão
Continente a caminhar
No céu, no mar, na terra
Canta, Brasil!

Na beleza deste céu
Onde o azul é mais azul

Mas agora o teu cantar
Meu Brasil, quero escutar
Nas preces da sertaneja
Nas ondas do rio-mar

Oh! Este rio turbilhão
Entre selvas e rojão
Continente a caminhar
No céu, no mar, na terra
Canta, Brasil!

No céu, no mar, na terra
Canta, Brasil!

No céu, no mar, na terra
Canta, Brasil!

No céu, no mar, na terra
Canta, Brasil!

Sing, Brazil

The jungles gave you, in the night, your barbaric rhythms
And the blacks brought from afar reserves of mourning
The whites spoke of love in their songs
And from this mixture of voices your song was born

Brazil, my tender voice
Has already gilded your coats of arms
In the most moved expression
Of the most ardent songs

Also, in the beauty of this sky
Where the blue is bluer
In the watercolor of Brazil
I sang from north to south

But now your singing
My Brazil, I want to hear
In the prayers of the countrywoman
In the waves of the river-sea

Oh! This whirlpool river
Between jungles and fireworks
Walking continent
In the sky, in the sea, on land
Sing, Brazil!

In the beauty of this sky
Where the blue is bluer
In the watercolor of Brazil
I sang from north to south

But now your singing
My Brazil, I want to hear
In the prayers of the countrywoman
In the waves of the river-sea

Oh! This whirlpool river
Between jungles and fireworks
Walking continent
In the sky, in the sea, on land
Sing, Brazil!

In the sky, in the sea, on land
Sing, Brazil!

In the sky, in the sea, on land
Sing, Brazil!

In the sky, in the sea, on land
Sing, Brazil!
