Mother Tongue speaks to Me In the strangest way I've ever seen I know that she sees in Me Her proudest child, her purest breed She speaks to Me in colour That I can't really understand I only know that they are ours And to those I'll proudly bend For I am your only child And you my dearest mystery From an ancient throne I defy the world To kneel before the Power within For I am your only child And you my dearest mystery World can't you see it? Am I alone in my belief? Virando costas ao Mundo Orgulhosamente s??s Gloria Antiga, volta a nos! ALMA MATER! Breaking waves announce my bride It is the only way the Sea could sing Legends of Lusitanian pride He sings the words I can not spring At the Moon Mountain six wolves cry Your lost glory we'll regain or die For I am your only child And you my dearest mystery Pagan Gods in conspiracy For the sword of Tyranny Mother Tongue speaks to Me In the strangest way I've ever seen World can't you see? Am I alone in my belief? ALMA MATER! Virando costas ao Mundo Orgulhosamente s??s Gloria Antiga, volta a nos! ALMA MATER!
