ANTHEM WORDS

!Oid Mortales!

(Hear, Oh Mortals!)

Mortals! Hear the sacred cry;
Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!
Hear the noise of broken chains
See noble equality enthroned
The United Provinces of the South
Have now displayed their worthy throne
And the free people of the world reply;
We salute the great people of Argentina!
CHORUS
May the laurels be eternal
That we knew how to win
Let us live crowned with glory,
Or swear to die gloriously.
