Mexico National Anthem
Listen to the National Anthem

Chorus
Mexicans, when the trumpet is calling,
Grasp your sword and your harness assemble.
Let the guns with their thunder appalling
Make the Earth's deep foundations to tremble.
Let the guns with their thunder appalling
Make the Earth's deep foundations to tremble.

May the angel divine,
O dear Homeland,
Crown the brow with the olive branch of peace;
For they destiny, traced by God's own hand
In the heavens, shall ever increase
But should ever the proud foe assail thee,
And with insolent foot profane they ground,
Know, dear Country, thy sons shall not fail thee,
Ev'ry one thy soldier shall be found,
They soldier ev'ry one shall be found.

Chorus

Blessed Homeland, the children have vowed them
If the bugle to battle should call,
They will fight with the last breath allowed them
Till on thy loved alters they fall.
Let the garland of olive thine be;
Unto them be deathless fame;
Let the laurel of victory be assigned thee,
Enough for them the tomb's honoured name.

Chorus
