FLAG AND ARMS

Anthem of the State

Melody: Artur Napoleão
Lyrics: Pessanha Póvoa

The star appears in the distance promised
that we want to spread light on.
When she hide the horizon
There is the sun made our luminary

Our arms are weak does it matter?
we have faith, have faith to the full.
Supplies the missing
age and strength
Chest noble, brave, matchless

(Chorus)
Save the people "espiritossantense"
heir of a glorious past
Are we the phalanx of present
In search of a hopeful future

Salute our parents and teachers,
the nation that trembles with joy.
By the time their children gathered
give example of love and harmony

Come laurels, crowns, flowers come,
ornate trophies of youth.
If the glories of this are few
Wave to us posterity
