THE
NATIONAL ANTHEM
OF TIMOR LESTE
The
anthem Patria, Patria, written by Fransisco
Borja da Costa, with music by Afonso de Araujo,
was first adopted on the eve of independence
in 1975 (shortly after which, Indonesia invaded),
and thus was a logical choice for the national
anthem when independence was regained.
Portuguese
Lyrics
Patria, Patria, Timor-Leste, nossa Nacao. Gloria
aos herois da nossa libertacao. Vencemos o colonialismo,
gritamos: abaixo o imperialismo. Terra livre,
nao, nao, nao a exploracao. Avante unidos firmes
e decididos. Na luta contra o imperialismo o
inimigo dos povos, ate a vitoria final. Pelo
caminho da revolucao.
English
Translation
Fatherland, fatherland, Timor-Leste our Nation.
Glory to the heroes of our liberation We gain
or victory over colonialism shouting: imperialism
go home! Free earth, no, no no to exploration.
Let's go ahead, unified, firm and determined
in the battle against imperialism, the enemy
of people, until the final victory. Through
the way of revolution.
