I Bolivianos: el hado propicio coronó nuestros votos y anhelo. Es ya libre, ya libre este suelo, ya cesó su servil condición. Al estruendo marcial que ayer fuera y al clamor de la guerra horroroso, 𝄆 siguen hoy, en contraste armonioso, dulces himnos de paz y de unión. 𝄇 Coro: De la Patria, el alto nombre, en glorioso esplendor conservemos. Y en sus aras de nuevo juremos: ¡Morir antes que esclavos vivir! ¡Morir antes que esclavos vivir! ¡Morir antes que esclavos vivir! II Loor eterno a los bravos guerreros, cuyo heroico valor y firmeza, conquistaron las glorias que empieza hoy Bolivia feliz a gozar. Que sus nombres, en mármol y en bronce, a remotas edades transmitan, 𝄆 y en sonoros cantares repitan: ¡Libertad, Libertad, Libertad! 𝄇 Coro III Aquí alzó la justicia su trono que la vil opresión desconoce, y en su timbre glorioso legose libertad, libertad, libertad. Esta tierra innocente y hermosa que ha debido a Bolívar su nombre 𝄆 es la patria feliz donde el hombre goza el bien de la dicha y la paz. 𝄇 Coro IV Si extranjero poder algún día sojuzgar a Bolivia intentare, al destino fatal se prepare que amenaza a soberbio agresor. Que los hijos del grande Bolívar hayan mil y mil veces jurado: 𝄆 morir antes que ver humillado de la Patria el augusto pendón. 𝄇 Coro

I Bolivians, a propitious fate has at long last crowned our vows and longings; This land is free, free at last. Its servile state has now finally ceased. The martial turmoil of yesterday, and the horrible clamour of war, 𝄆 are followed today, in harmonious contrast, by sweet hymns of peace and unity. 𝄇 Chorus: Let us keep the lofty name of our Fatherland in glorious splendour. And, on its altars, once more we must swear: To die before we would live as slaves! To die before we would live as slaves! To die before we would live as slaves! II Eternal praise to the brave warriors whose heroic valour and firmness conquered the freedom and glories that now a happy Bolivia justly begins to enjoy! Let their names, preserved forever in marble and bronze, transmit their glory to remote future ages. 𝄆 And in resounding songs let them repeat: Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! 𝄇 Chorus III Here has Justice erected its throne which vile oppression ignores and, on its glorious laurel it bequeathed us Freedom, freedom, freedom This innocent and beautiful land, which owes its name to Bolívar, 𝄆 is the happy homeland where mankind enjoys the benefits of bliss and peace. 𝄇 Chorus IV If a foreigner may, any given day even attempt to subjugate Bolivia, let him prepare for a fatal destiny, which menaces such superb aggressor. For the sons of the mighty Bolívar have sworn, thousands upon thousands of times: 𝄆 to die rather than see the country's majestic banner humiliated. 𝄇 Chorus

Poetic translation

Verse I
Bolivians, the fate of good intent,
Has crowned our fervent hopes and deep desire.
This ground is free, our country truly free,
Its long enslaved condition now is gone.

The martial roar that sounded yesterday,
And horrible cries of war, they now have passed,

||: Now follow, in harmonious contrast,

Sweet hymns of unity, of peace and grace. :||

Chorus
Cherished Homeland, high and noble name,
In glorious splendor, let us now preserve.
And on its sacred altars, let us swear:
To die rather than live on as slaves!
To die rather than live on as slaves!
To die rather than live on as slaves!

Verse II
Eternal praise to all our brave warriors,
Whose heroic valor and firm resolve,
Have won the glories that now start to bloom,
For happy Bolivia to now embrace.

May their great names, on marble and on bronze,
Be passed to ages distant and remote,

||: And in resounding songs may they ring out:

Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! :||

Chorus

Verse III
Here justice raised its rightful throne on high,
Which vile oppression truly does not know.
And in its glorious peal, was then bequeathed:
Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!
This innocent and beautiful green land,
Which owes its very name to Bolívar,

||: Is the happy place where every man

Enjoys the blessings of true joy and peace. :||

Chorus

Verse IV
If foreign power should ever one day try
To subjugate Bolivia, our homeland,
Then let it face the fate that will befall,
That threatens every proud and bold aggressor.

For children of the great Bolívar,
Have sworn a thousand times, and sworn again:

||: To perish rather than see humbled low

Our Homeland's sacred banner brought to shame. :||

Chorus
