Anthem of Rio Grande do Sul

Like the forerunner dawn
From the beacon of divinity
It was the 20th of September
The forerunner of freedom

We show value, constancy
In this impious and unjust war
Serve our exploits
From model to all Earth

From model to all Earth
Serve our exploits
From model to all Earth

But it's not enough to be free
Be strong, brave and brave
People who have no virtue
Just become a slave

We show value, constancy
In this impious and unjust war
Serve our exploits
From model to all Earth

From model to all Earth
Serve our exploits
From model to all Earth.

Composer: Francisco Pinto Da Fontoura.
