Cantemos o Novo Dia
Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Olhai que vamos passar,
Nosso canto é de verdade;
Vinde connosco lutar,
Nós somos a liberdade.

A terra está toda em flor
O céu é todo alegria.
A nossa voz é de amor,
- Cantemos o Novo Dia!

Ó jovem que és cavador,
Semeia, hás-de colher.
A papoila é nossa flor,
O trigo é nosso querer.

Toda a palavra é de amor,
A hora é nossa, confia,
Nosso olhar tem mais fulgor
- Cantemos o Novo Dia!

Há seiva forte a brotar,
Novas folhas a nascer,
A Primavera a chegar,
Os homens querem viver.

A juventude é mais moça
Quando o amor principia
Pois se a vida é toda nossa
- Cantemos o Novo Dia!
