Lyrics

Seja um pálio de luz desdobrado,
Sob a larga amplidão destes céus.
Este canto rebel, que o passado
Vem remir dos mais torpes labéus!
Seja um hino de glória que fale
De esperanças de um novo porvir!
Com visões de triunfos embale
Quem por ele lutando surgir!

Chorus:
Liberdade! Liberdade!
Abre as asas sobre nós,
Das lutas na tempestade
Dá que ouçamos tua voz

Nós nem cremos que escravos outrora
Tenha havido em tão nobre País...
Hoje o rubro lampejo da aurora
Acha irmãos, não tiranos hostis.
Somos todos iguais! Ao futuro
Saberemos, unidos, levar
Nosso augusto estandarte que, puro,
Brilha, avante, da Pátria no altar!

Chorus

Se é mister que de peitos valentes
Haja sangue em nosso pendão,
Sangue vivo do herói Tiradentes
Batizou neste audaz pavilhão!
Mensageiro de paz, paz queremos,
É de amor nossa força e poder,
Mas da guerra, nos transes supremos
Heis de ver-nos lutar e vencer!

Chorus

Do Ipiranga é preciso que o brado
Seja um grito soberbo de fé!
O Brasil já surgiu libertado,
Sobre as púrpuras régias de pé.
Eia, pois, brasileiros avante!
Verdes louros colhamos louçãos!
Seja o nosso País triunfante,
Livre terra de livres irmãos!

Chorus

May this rebel song be an unfurled mantle of light
Under the vastness of these skies,
This rebel song that comes to redeem
Our past from inglorious deeds!
May this be a glorious anthem that speaks
Of hopes of new beginnings
To inspire with visions of triumph those
who in the future shall come forward to defend it!

Chorus:
Freedom! Freedom!
Above us spread thy wings.
Through the struggles in the storm
Grant that we hear thy voice.

We cannot believe that in another age
Slaves there were in so noble a country.
Now the rosy glow of dawn
Greets brothers, and not hostile tyrants.
We are all equal! In the future, united,
We will know how to take up
Our august banner that, pure,
Glows triumphant from the altar of the fatherland!

Chorus

If it is to be that from brave chests
Our banner will be bloodied
The living blood of the hero Tiradentes[lower-alpha 1]
Baptized this bold flag!
Messenger of peace, it is peace for which we yearn,
From love comes our force and power
But in war, in the greatest ordeals
You shall see us struggling and victorious!

Chorus

May the shout from the Ipiranga[lower-alpha 2]
Be a defiant cry of faith!
Brazil sprang forth already free,
Standing above the purple vestments of royalty.
So then, forward Brazilians!
May we harvest shining green laurels!
May our country be triumphant,
A free land of free brothers!

Chorus

gollark: It isn't. Its type system CANNOT correctly express generics, which you need for good iterators. Its insufficiently good memory management mechanisms would require manually freeing and allocing them, which is no. Its lack of good metaprogramming capabilities (the macros are not sufficient) means I couldn't make iterators which were actually *nice to use*.
gollark: No.
gollark: No. I don't know what GA is.
gollark: Hyperbolic geometry (not bees).
gollark: Great! However, consume bees.
