Spanish lyrics[edit]

Coro:
𝄆 Saludemos la patria orgullosos
de hijos suyos podernos llamar
y juremos la vida animosos,
sin descanso a su bien consagrar. 𝄇
𝄆 Consagrar, consagrar. 𝄇

Primera estrofa
De la paz en la dicha suprema,
Siempre noble soñó El Salvador;
Fue obtenerla su eterno problema,
Conservarla es su gloria mayor.

Y con fe inquebrantable el camino
Del progreso se afana en seguir (en seguir),
Por llenar su grandioso destino,
Conquistarse un feliz porvenir.

Le protege una férrea barrera
Contra el choque de ruin deslealtad,
Desde el día que en su alta bandera
Con su sangre escribió: ¡LIBERTAD!
𝄆 Escribió: ¡LIBERTAD! 𝄇

Coro

Segunda estrofa
Libertad es su dogma, es su guía
Que mil veces logró defender;
Y otras tantas, de audaz tiranía
Rechazar el odioso poder.

Dolorosa y sangrienta es su historia,
Pero excelsa y brillante a la vez (a la vez);
Manantial de legítima gloria,
Gran lección de espartana altivez.

No desmaya en su innata bravura,
En cada hombre hay un héroe inmortal
Que sabrá mantenerse a la altura
De su antiguo valor proverbial.
𝄆 Valor proverbial. 𝄇

Coro

Tercera estrofa
Todos son abnegados, y fieles
Al prestigio del bélico ardor
Con que siempre segaron laureles
De la patria salvando el honor.

Respetar los derechos extraños
Y apoyarse en la recta razón (razón)
Es para ella, sin torpes amaños
Su invariable, más firme ambición.

Y en seguir esta línea se aferra
Dedicando su esfuerzo tenaz,
En hacer cruda guerra a la guerra:
Su ventura se encuentra en la paz.
𝄆 Se encuentra en la paz. 𝄇

Coro

English translation[edit]

Chorus:
𝄆 Let us salute the fatherland, proud
Of being able to be called its children
And let us swear our life, spirited,
To consecrate its good without rest. 𝄇
𝄆 Consecrate, consecrate. 𝄇

First verse:
Of peace in supreme bliss,
Always noble El Salvador dreamt;
Obtaining it was her eternal challenge,
Keeping it is her greatest glory.

And with unwavering faith, the path
Of progress, she strives to follow (to follow),
To fulfil her grand destiny,
Conquer a happy future.

An iron barrier protects her
Against the clash of vile disloyalty,
Since the day that on her high flag
With her blood she wrote "LIBERTY!"
𝄆 She wrote "LIBERTY!" 𝄇

Chorus

Second verse:
Liberty is her dogma, is her guide
That she managed to defend a thousand times;
And as many times, audacious tyranny's
Hateful power, to repel.

Painful and bloody is her story,
But lofty and brilliant at the same time (at the same time);
A source of legitimate glory,
A great lesson of Spartan pride.

Her innate bravery does not waver,
In each man there is an immortal hero
Who will know how to keep to the merit
Of its ancient proverbial value.
𝄆 Proverbial value. 𝄇

Chorus

Third verse:
All are selfless, and faithful
To the prestige of warlike ardour
With which they always reaped glories
Saving the honour of the fatherland.

To respect the rights of others
And base herself on just reason (reason)
Is for her, without dishonest tricks,
Her invariable, firmest ambition.

And in following this line she persists
Dedicating her tenacious effort,
In waging harsh war on war:
Her fortune is found in peace.
𝄆 Is found in peace. 𝄇
