We’re on the ball! We’re on the Ball! The boys from Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne!
I give you a toast Ladies and gentlemen,
I give you a toast Ladies and gentlemen
May this fair land we love so well,
In Dignity and freedom dwell.
while worlds may change and go awry,
Whilst there is still one voice to cry!—
There’ll always be an England,
While there’s a country lane.
Wherever there’s a cottage small
Beside a field of grain
There’ll always be an England
While there’s a busy street.
ALTOGETHER NOW…………………… 1 . 2 . 3…………………..
Paraguay National Anthem Lyrics
Paraguay
Original Spanish Words
A los pueblos de América infausto,
Tres centurias un cetro oprimió,
Más un día soberbia surgiendo,
Basta!…, dijo y el cetro rompió.
Nuestros padres lidiando grandiosos,
Ilustraron su gloria marcial;
Y trozada la augusta diadema,
Enalzaron el gorro triunfal!
(repeat previous two lines)
CHORUS
Paraguayos, República o muerte!
Nuestro brío nos dió libertad;
Ni opresores, ni siervos, alientan,
Donde reinan unión, e igualdad.
(repeat previous two lines)
Unión, e igualdad.
(repeat)
English:
For three centuries a reign oppressed
The unhappy peoples of America,
But one day, their anger aroused, they said:
“An end to this!” and broke the reign.
Our forefathers, fighting magnificently,
Displayed their immortal glory,
And when the august diadem was shattered,
They raised the triumphal cap of liberty.
(repeat previous two lines)
CHORUS
Paraguayans, Republic or death!
It was our strength that gave us our final liberty.
Neither tyrants nor slaves can continue,
Where unity and equality reign,
(repeat previous two lines)
Where unity and equality reign.
(repeat)
