Jânio Quadros
Tu és um soldado
Sentinela da democracia
O Brasil foi por ti libertado
Reação nacional, valentia
Jânio Quadros, a tua bandeira
É a Pátria querida a servir
Tornar grande a nação brasileira
Gloriosa, feliz no porvir
Jânio Quadros, tu és presidente
Norte e Sul, a nação unirás
No Planalto, te quer tanta gente
Novo sol, Alvorada da paz
Só Lacerda gritou Guanabara
Paraná respondeu com Ney Braga
Minas deu Magalhães, jóia rara
Tantas glórias o povo afaga
Oh! São Paulo! Que tem Dom Carvalho
Salve Cid, Gondim e Luiz
Redenção, honradez e trabalho
E ao Brasil, seu destino feliz
Translation
Jânio Quadros
You are a soldier
Sentinel of democracy
Brazil was liberated by you
National reaction, bravery
Jânio Quadros, your flag
Is the beloved Homeland to serve
To make the Brazilian nation great
Glorious, happy in the future
Jânio Quadros, you are president
North and South, you will unite the nation
On the Planalto, so many people want you
New sun, Dawn of peace
Only Lacerda shouted Guanabara
Paraná responded with Ney Braga
Minas gave Magalhães, a rare jewel
So many glories the people cherish
Oh! São Paulo! Which has Dom Carvalho
Hail Cid, Gondim and Luiz
Redemption, honesty and work
And to Brasil, its happy destiny
