Mexican National Anthem
Mexicans to the war cry
The steel prepared and steed
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
I
Oh, Homeland! Crown your brow with olive
The divine archangel of peace
Whose eternal destiny in heaven
Was written by God's finger
But if a foreign enemy should dare
To profane your soil with his foot
Think, beloved Homeland, that heaven
Gave you a soldier in each son
Gave you a soldier in each son!
Mexicans to the war cry
The steel prepared and steed
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
V
War, war! Without truce to whoever
Tries to stain the country's honor
War, war! Let the patriotic banners
Be soaked in waves of blood
War, war! In the mountains, in the valleys
Let the horrifying cannons thunder
And let the resounding echoes
Ring out with the voices of Union! Liberty!
Ring out with the voices of Union! Liberty!
Mexicans to the war cry
The steel prepared and steed
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
VI
Before, Homeland, that your unarmed sons
Bow their necks under the yoke
Let your countrysides be watered with blood
Let their feet be stamped on blood
And may your temples, palaces, and towers
Collapse with a dreadful roar
And may their ruins exist proclaiming
Here the homeland of a thousand heroes
Here the homeland of a thousand heroes!
Mexicans to the war cry
The steel prepared and steed
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
X
Homeland! Homeland! Your sons swear to you
To breathe their last breath on your altars
If the bugle with its warlike tone
Calls them to fight with valor
For you, the olive garlands!
A memory of glory for them!
A laurel of victory for you!
A tomb of honor for them!
A tomb of honor for them!
Mexicans to the war cry
The steel prepared and steed
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
And may the earth tremble at its core
By the sounding roar of the canon
