	In the memory of Africa and the World Beautiful fatherland of those that dared to fight Mozambique, your name is freedom The Sun of June forever will shine Chorus: (2x) Mozambique, our Glorious Land Rock by rock constructing the new day Millions of arms in one only force O Loved fatherland we will be successful United people from Rovuma to Maputo It harvests the fruits of the combat for the Peace The dream grows waving in the flag And goes cultivating in the certainty of tomorrow Chorus (2x) Flowers sprouting of the soil of your sweat For mounts, the rivers, the sea We swear for you, O Mozambique No tyrant in will enslave us Chorus (2x)

In the memory of Africa and the World

Beautiful fatherland of those that dared to fight

Mozambique, your name is freedom

The Sun of June forever will shine

Chorus: (2x)

Mozambique, our Glorious Land

Rock by rock constructing the new day

Millions of arms in one only force

O Loved fatherland we will be successful

United people from Rovuma to Maputo

It harvests the fruits of the combat for the Peace

The dream grows waving in the flag

And goes cultivating in the certainty of tomorrow

Chorus (2x)

Flowers sprouting of the soil of your sweat

For mounts, the rivers, the sea

We swear for you, O Mozambique

No tyrant in will enslave us

Chorus (2x)
