The Argentina National Anthem
Marcha de la Patria
I was very intrigued by my first listening of the
Argentina National Anthem
. It has a regal quality to it, and you can also discern strains of the tango if you listen closely. Translated to March of the Fatherland, Argentina's National Anthem was procured on March 11, 1813. After the War of Independence from Spain, the anthem was softened a bit so it would not sound too aggressive or warlike. There are nine verses to Argentina's National Anthem.
March of the Fatherland
Argentina National Anthem: English TranslationLyrics: Vicente López y Planes
Music: José Blas Parera
Mortals! Hear the sacred cry;
Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!Hear the noise of broken chains.See noble Equality enthroned.The United Provinces of the SouthHave now displayed their worthy throne.And the free peoples of the world reply;We salute the great people of Argentina!We salute the great people of Argentina!And the free peoples of the world reply;We salute the great people of Argentina!And the free peoples of the world reply;We salute the great people of Argentina!
May the laurels be eternalThat we knew how to win.Let us live crowned with glory,Or swear to die gloriously.May the laurels be eternalThat we knew how to win.Let us live crowned with glory,Or swear to die gloriously.May the laurels be eternalThat we knew how to win.Let us live crowned with glory,Or swear to die gloriously.

Oid mortales el grito sagrado
ˇLibertad! ˇLibertad! ˇLibertad!
oid el ruido de rotas cadenas
ved el trono en su noble igualdad
Ya su trono dignisimo abrieron
las provincias unidas del sud
y los libres del mundo responden
al gran pueblo Argentino ˇsalud!
al gran pueblo Argentino ˇsalud!
y los libres del mundo responden
al gran pueblo Argentino ˇsalud!
Sean eternos los laureles
que supimos conseguir
que supimos conseguir
coronados de gloria vivamos
ˇoh! juremos con gloria morir
ˇoh! juremos con gloria morir
ˇoh! juremos con gloria morir
