Population Brazil's offical religion is the Roman Catholic Religion. Brazillians have a carnival sometimes, During the carnival, colourful parades are always held on the streets, and children and adults dress up into costumes and dance and celebrate on the streets all day and all night. http://www.foodbycountry.com/Algeria-to-France/Brazil.html#Polenta_Fried_Corn_Mush Two individuals sway around each other in the middle of the room. One reaches out with his foot to trip the other, only to fall, caught off-balance because he has been cleverly dodged. But the would-be tripper is unfazed, and hurls himself into a backwards, fluid cartwheel. Observers who surround them play a role as well, as they sing, smile and laugh at the contenders.

If with strong arm we have succeeded In winning a pledge of equality, In thy bosom, O Liberty, Our hearts will defy death itself!

O adored Fatherland, Cherished and revered, All hail! All Hail!

Brazil, a dream sublime, vivid ray of love and hope to earth descends, Where in your clear, pure, beauteous skies The image of the Southern Cross shines forth.

O country vast by nature, Fair and strong, brave and colossus, Thy future mirrors this thy greatness.

O land adored Above all others, 'Tis thee Brazil, Beloved Fatherland!

Thou art the gentle mother of the children of this soil, Beloved land, Brazil!

II

Laid out eternally in the splendor of nature, In the sound of the sea and the light of heaven, may thou shine, O Brazil, flower of America, Illumined by the sun of the New World!

More flowers put forth in thy fair, smiling fields Than the in the most gorgeously reputed lands; "More life is to be found in the groves", "More love in our lives" in thy embrace.

O adored Fatherland, Cherished and revered, All Hail! All Hail!

May the star-scattered banner flown by thee, Brazil, become the symbol of eternal love, And may the green-gold flag proclaim always - Peace in the future and glory in the past -

But if the mighty sword of justice drawn forth, You will perceive your children, who adore you, neither fear to fight, nor flee from death itself.

O land adored Above all others, 'Tis thee Brazil, Beloved Fatherland!

Thou art the gentle mother of the children of this soil,

Beloved land, Brazil! http://www.lyricsondemand.com/miscellaneouslyrics/nationalanthemslyrics/brazilnationalanthemlyrics.html
