Original Lyrics in Spanish
Oid mortales, el grito sagrado:
¡Libertad, libertad, libertad!
Oid el ruido de rotas cadenas:
Ved en trono a la noble Igualdad.
Ya su trono dignísimo abrieron
Las Provincias Unidas del Sud.
Y los libres del mundo responden:
Al gran pueblo argentino, ¡salud!
Al gran pueblo argentino, ¡salud!
Y los libres del mundo responden:
Al gran pueblo argentino, ¡salud!
Y los libres del mundo responden:
Al gran pueblo argentino, ¡salud!
Sean eternos los laureles,
Que supimos conseguir.
Que supimos conseguir.
Coronados de gloria vivamos,
O juremos con gloria morir.
O juremos con gloria morir.
O juremos con gloria morir.

Hear, mortals, the sacred cry:

Hear the noise of broken chains:
See noble Equality enthroned.

Have now opened their very honorable throne.
And the free ones of the world reply:
To the great Argentine people, hail!

To the great Argentine people, hail!
May the laurels be eternal
That we knew how to win.

Let us live crowned with glory
Or let us swear with glory to die.
Or let us swear with glory to die.
Or let us swear with glory to die.
