NATIONAL SIMBOLS
The National Anthem
The verses of Brazilian Anthem were composed by Joaquim Osório Duque Estrada, a very erudite man who turned the anthem into a lesson of erudition. Unnecessary rare words and several complex sintatic constructions make the anthem hard to understand, even by literate Brazilians. Even so, it's worshiped by Brazilian citizens, from soccer fans to dignitaries.
Visit the site of Brazilian consulate in Houston to take a look at a version of the
Brazilian National Anthem in English. At the bottom of the page, you can play the anthem and listen to it.
