Song lyrics
Spanish
(Note: the last two lines of the stanzas are repeated in each case)
I.)
Bolivianos el hado propicio
Coronó nuestros votos y anhelo;
Es ya libre, ya libre este suelo,
Ya cesó su servil condición.
Al estruendo marcial que ayer fuera
Y al clamor de la guerra horroroso,
Siguen hoy en contraste armonioso
Dulces himnos de paz y de unión.
Refrain:
De la Patria, el alto nombre
En glorioso esplendor conservemos
Y en sus aras de nuevo juremos
¡morir antes que esclavos vivir!
¡Morir antes que esclavos vivir!
¡Morir antes que esclavos vivir!
II.)
Loor eterno a los bravos guerreros,
cuyo heroico valor y firmeza
conquistaron las glorias que empieza
hoy Bolivia feliz a gozar.
Que sus nombres, el mármol y el bronce,
a remotas edades trasmitan
y, en sonoros cantares, repitan:
¡Libertad, Libertad, Libertad!
refrain
III.)
Aquí alzó la justicia, su trono
que la vil opresión desconoce,
y, en su timbre glorioso, legóse
Libertad, libertad, libertad.
Esta tierra inocente y hermosa,
que ha debido a Bolívar su nombre,
es la Patria feliz donde el hombre
goza el bien de la dicha y la paz.
refrain
IV.)
Si extranjero poder, algún día,
sojuzgar a Bolivia intentare,
al destino fatal se prepare
que amenaza a soberbio agresor.
Que los hijos del grande Bolívar
han ya, mil y mil veces, jurado
morir antes que ver humillado,
de la Patria el augusto pendón.

German translation
I.)
Bolivians, the destiny we weighed gave
way to our most ardent desires.
It is already free, already free, this land;
he has now given up his slavish state.
The martial noise that rang out yesterday
and the cruel cries of war are
followed today in harmonious contrast by
sweet hymns of peace and unity.
Refrain:
Let us keep the high name of the fatherland in glorious splendor;
and - on its altars - let us swear again:
Better to die than live like slaves!
II.)
Eternal praise to the courageous warriors
whose heroic courage and steadfastness
have conquered the glory whose
fruits Bolivia is starting to feast on today.
May their names, in marble and bronze, be brought
back to distant ages
and, in jubilant song, repeated:
Freedom, freedom, freedom!
III.)
Here justice has exalted its throne,
which does not recognize the vile oppression,
and, in an uplifting voice, let it be
freedom, freedom, freedom.
This innocent and beautiful land,
which Bolívar owes its name,
is the happy fatherland where man
enjoys happiness and peace.
IV.)
Should foreign powers one day
try to subjugate Bolivia,
let the fatal fate that
threatens the haughty aggressor be prepared .
For the descendants of the great Bolívar
have sworn many thousands of times that they
would rather die than see
the fatherland's noble banner humiliated .
