to the heroes of gallant Castile, Undaunted in danger, victorious in fight! May they teach proud oppressors and tyrants to feel, The patriot's arm of invincible might!

Live in memory eternal, the deeds of the brave! Be the warriors immortal, who fall on the field! The garlands of summer shall bloom on their grave, And the trophies of glory emblazon their shield!

Success to the heroes whom Albion has giv'n,   In the cause of Iberia their aid to supply; May they wield the bright armour of Justice and Heav'n,   And wave the proud banner of Freedom on high!
