Original Lyrics in Spanish
Gloria al bravo pueblo
que el yugo lanzó,
la ley respetando
la virtud y honor.
¡Abajo cadenas!
¡Abajo cadenas!
Gritaba el señor,
gritaba el señor.
Y el pobre en su choza
libertad pidió.
A este santo nombre
tembló de pavor
el vil egoísmo
que otra vez triunfó.
Gloria al bravo pueblo
que el yugo lanzó,
la ley respetando
la virtud y honor.
English Translation of the Lyrics
Here is the Venezuela national anthem English version. “Gloria al Bravo Pueblo” reflects the pride and unity of Venezuela. Below is the English translation of the lyrics.
Glory to the brave people
who threw off the yoke,
Respecting the law,
virtue, and honor.
Down with chains!
Down with chains!
Shouted the Lord,
Shouted the Lord.
And the poor man in his hovel
Asked for freedom.
At this holy name
Trembled in fear
The vile selfishness
that once triumphed again.
Glory to the brave people
who threw off the yoke,
Respecting the law,
virtue, and honor.
