On being the Champions

a wee bit late but...

WE ARE THE AMERICAN CHAMPIONS


Campeões da America!!

"Glória do desporto nacional
Oh, Internacional que eu vivo a exaltar

Leva a plagas distantes
Feitos relevantes

Vives a brilhar

Correm os anos surge o amanha

Radioso de luz, varonil
Segue a tua senda de vitórias
Colorado das glórias

Orgulho do brasil


É teu passado alvirrubro

Motivos de festas em nossos corações

O teu presente diz tudo
Trazendo à torcida alegres emoções

Colorado de ases celeiro

Teus astros cintilam num céu sempre azul

Vibra o Brasil inteiro
Com o clube do povo do Rio Grande do Sul"


"Dá-lhe
Dá-lhe Colorado
Com muito orgulho
No Coração"



For those who not follow soccer, Internacional, the team I root for, won the most prestigious South American Championship: The Libertadores Cup. It was the first time we won it, so we are very, VERY excited! And we can make fun of our eternal rivals: Gremio. My mom roots for them, so as you've guessed I made fun of her, in the good sense of it - Right mom? ;).

Here's a good blog to check, once in a while: bola vermelho or ball red. Thanks Cassio for the heads up.

Now, Japan, here we come!
