Letter of the Peruvian National Anthem for children
Chorus
We are free! Let's always know it!
and before denying its lights the sun,
that we miss the solemn vow
that the fatherland to the eternal rose.
Stanza I
Long time the oppressed Peruvian
the ominous chain dragged,
condemned to a cruel servitude
long time silently moaned.
But just the sacred cry
freedom! on its shores it was heard,
the indolence of slave shakes,
the humiliated cervix lifted.
Stanza II
Already the rumble of hoarse chains
that heard three centuries of horror
of the free, to the sacred cry
that heard the world astonished, ceased.
Everywhere San Martin inflamed,
freedom! freedom! pronounced
and rocking its base the Andes, en also enunciated it to a voice.
Stanza III
With its influence the peoples awaken
and which ray ran the opinion,
from the Isthmus to the land of fire,
from the fire to the frozen region.
Everyone swears to break the link,
that Natura both worlds denied,
and break that scepter that Spain
proudly reclined in both.
Stanza IV
Lima fulfills his solemn vow,
and severe his anger showed,
to the powerful tyrant throwing,
that he tried to lengthen his oppression.
The irons
and the furrows that he repaired did jump to his effort
the hatred and revenge
he inherited from his Inca and lord.
Stanza V
Compatriots, no more seeing her as a slave
if humiliated for three centuries she moaned,
forever swore her free,
keeping her own splendor.
Our arms until today unarmed,
are always priming the cannon,
that one day the beaches of Iberia,
will feel the terror of their roar.
Verse VI
Let us excite the jealousy of Spain
for it senses with diminution and fury,
that in competition of great nations
our country will come in comparison.
In the list of these forms
we will fill the line first,
that the ambitious iberian tyrant,
that the whole America ravaged.
Verse VII
At its summit the Andes hold
the flag or bicolor flag,
that to the centuries announce the effort,
that being free always gave us.
In his shadow we live in peace,
and when the sun rises from its summits,
let us renew the great oath
that we surrender to the God of Jacob.
