ARGENTINE NATIONAL ANTHEM
Its lyrics were written by the Argentine politician Vicente López y Planes and the music was composed by the Spanish musician Blas Parera. The work was adopted as the sole official song on May 11, 1813, three years after the May Revolution; May 11 is Anthem Day in Argentina.
The following is the modern version, adopted in 1924.

Oíd, mortales, el grito sagrado:
"¡Libertad! ¡Libertad! ¡Libertad!"
Oíd el ruido de rotas cadenas
ved en trono a la noble igualdad
Ya su trono dignísimo abrieron
las Provincias Unidas del Sud
y los libres del mundo responden:
𝄆 "¡Al gran pueblo argentino, salud!" 𝄇
𝄆 Y los libres del mundo responden:
"¡Al gran pueblo argentino, salud!" 𝄇"
Sean eternos los laureles,
𝄆 que supimos conseguir. 𝄇
Coronados de gloria vivamos
¡O juremos con gloria morir!
𝄆 ¡O juremos con gloria morir! 𝄇
| Hear, mortals, the sacred cry:
"Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!"
Hear the sound of broken chains
See noble equality enthroned.
Their most worthy throne have now opened
The United Provinces of the South.
And the free people of the world reply:
𝄆 "To the great Argentine people, hail!" 𝄇
𝄆 And the free ones of the world reply:
"To the great Argentine people, hail!" 𝄇
May the laurels be eternal
𝄆 that we were able to achieve 𝄇
Let us live crowned in glory
Or let us swear to die with glory!
𝄆 Or let us swear to die with glory! 𝄇 |
