Himno Nacional de Paraguay

To the peoples of America, unfortunate
Three centuries a scepter oppressed
But one day pride emerging
Enough! he said
And the scepter broke

Our parents, dealing great
They illustrated his martial glory
And the august diadem was cut into pieces
They raised the triumphal cap
And the august diadem was cut into pieces
They raised the triumphal cap

Paraguayans, Republic or Death!
Our spirit gave us freedom
Neither oppressors nor servants encourage
Where unity and equality reign

Neither oppressors nor servants encourage
Where unity and equality reign
Union and equality! Union and equality!
