Grande Prémio TV da Canção 1975:
José Mário Branco - "Alerta"

Alert

Alert! Alert!
To arms! To arms
Alert!

For the bread and for peace
And for our land
For independence
And for freedom

Alert! Alert!
To arms! To arms
Alert!

For the bread that is stolen from them by the bourgeoisie
Who exploits them in the fields and in the factories
Workers, peasants will one day
Snatch the power from the bourgeoisie
Down with exploitation
For the bread of each day
Of course

For the bread and for peace
And for our land
For independence
And for freedom

Alert! Alert!
To arms! To arms
Alert!

We will only have definitive peace
When capitalist exploitation ends
Comrade, soldier and sailor
Let's fight together for peace around the world
Soldiers on the people's side
For peace in a new world
Of course

For the bread and for peace
And for our land
For independence
And for freedom

Alert! Alert!
To arms! To arms
Alert!

For the land that is stolen from them by this scoundrel
Of the monopolies and big owners
Peasants fight for the agrarian reform
To give the land to those who work it
We will carry out the agrarian reform
The land to those who work it
Of course

For the bread and for peace
And for our land
For independence
And for freedom

Alert! Alert!
To arms! To arms
Alert!

For national independence
Against the domain of the great powers
Down with international imperialism
Which has on its hands half of Portugal
Down with imperialism
National independence
Of course

For the bread and for peace
And for our land
For independence
And for freedom

Alert! Alert!
To arms! To arms
Alert!

There is no people with freedom
As long as there is exploitation on its land
Freedom is not given, it is only conquered
There is no bourgeois reform that can resist
Popular democracy
And proletarian dictatorship
Of course

For the bread and for peace
And for our land
For independence
And for freedom

Alert! Alert!
To arms! To аrmѕ
Alert!
