Mar Português
Ó mar salgado, quanto do teu sal
São lágrimas de Portugal!
Por te cruzarmos, quantas mães choraram,
filhos em vão rezaram!
Quantas noivas ficaram por casar
que fosses nosso, ó mar!
Valeu a pena? Tudo a pena
Se a alma não é pequena.
Quem passar além do Bojador
Tem que passar além da dor.
Deus ao mar o perigo e o abismo deu,
nele é que espelhou o céu.
