Bolivia National Anthem Lyrics
Bolivia


Himno Nacional

(National Anthem)


Original Spanish Words

Bolivianos el hado propicio

coronó nuestros votos y anhelo

es ya libre, ya libre este suelo,

ya cesó su servil condición.

Al estruendo marcial que ayer fuera

y al clamor de la guerra horroroso,

siguen hoy en contraste armonioso

dulces himnos de paz y de unión.

(repeat previous two lines)

CHORUS

De la Patria, el alto nombre

en glorioso esplendor conservemos

y en sus aras de nuevo juremos

¡morir antes que esclavos vivir!

(repeat three times)

Esta tierra inocente y hermosa,

que a debido a Bolívar su nombre,

es la patria feliz donde el hombre

goza el bien de la dicha y la paz.

Que los hijos del grande Bolívar

han ya mil y mil veces jurado:

morir antes que ver humillado

de la Patria el augusto pendón.

(repeat previous two lines)

CHORUS



Loor eterno a los bravos guerreros,

cuyo heroíco valor y firmeza,

conquistaron las glorias que empieza

hoy Bolivia feliz a gozar.

Que sus nombres el mármol y el bronce

a remotas edades transmitan

y en sonoros cantares repitan:

¡Libertad, Libertad, Libertad!

(repeat previous two lines)

CHORUS


English Translation

Bolivians, a favourable destiny

Has crowned our vows and longings;

This land is free,

Your servile state has ended.

The martial turmoil of yesterday

And the horrible clamour of war

Are followed today, in harmonious contrast,

By sweet hymns of peace and unity.

(repeat previous two lines)

CHORUS

We have kept the lofty name of our country

In glorious splendour,

And on its altars we once more swear

To die, rather than live as slaves.

(repeat three times)

This innocent and beautiful land,

Which owes its name to Bolivar,

Is the happy homeland where men

Enjoy the benefits of good fortune and peace.

For the sons of the great Bolivar

Have sworn, thousands upon thousands of times,

To die rather than see the country's

Majestic flag humiliated.

(repeat previous two lines)

CHORUS

Eternal praise to the brave warriors

Whose heroic valour and firmness

Conquered the glories that now

A happy Bolivia begins to enjoy!

Let their names, in marble and in bronze,

Transmit to remote ages

And in resounding song repeat the call:

Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!

(repeat previous two lines)

CHORUS
