Oh mar salgado
Quanto do teu sal são lágrimas de Portugal
Por te cruzarmos quantas mães choraram
Quantos filhos em vão rezaram
Quantas noivas ficaram por casar
Para que fosses nosso, oh, mar
Valeu a pena, tudo vale a pena
Se alma não é pequena
Quem passar além do Bujador
Tem de passar além da dor
Deus, ao mar o perigo e o abismo deu
Mas nele é que espelhou o céu
Oh, mar salgado!
