(Verse 1) Monscrabel, terra de glória e honra, Sob o manto de um principati coroada. Nossa história é uma epopeia eterna, No principado onde a luz é aclamada. (Chorus) Monscrabel, oh Monscrabel, és nosso lar, Sob o cetro principati, vamos marchar! Leais ao nosso principati, com devoção, Nossa pátria, Monscrabel, em união! (Verse 2) Nas montanhas e vales, florestas verdejantes, Onde a história e o passado se entrelaçam. Monscrabel, berço de nobres tradições, Com o principati, encontramos inspirações. (Chorus) Monscrabel, oh Monscrabel, és nosso lar, Sob o cetro principati, vamos marchar! Leais ao nosso principati, com devoção, Nossa pátria, Monscrabel, em união! (Bridge) O pendão real, com cores a brilhar, Simboliza nosso amor, nossa lealdade. Monscrabel, nação de fé e coragem, Com o principati, encontramos nossa verdade. (Chorus) Monscrabel, oh Monscrabel, és nosso lar, Sob o cetro principati, vamos marchar! Leais ao nosso principati, com devoção, Nossa pátria, Monscrabel, em união! (Verse 3) Com esperança e amor, vamos construir, Um futuro de paz, onde todos possam sorrir. Monscrabel, unida, para sempre será, Com o principati, nosso destino a trilhar. (Chorus) Monscrabel, oh Monscrabel, és nosso lar, Sob o cetro principati, vamos marchar! Leais ao nosso principati, com devoção, Nossa pátria, Monscrabel, em união! (Outro) Monscrabel, Monscrabel, nossa nação querida, Com o principati, com orgulho, seguiremos a vida. Com fé e amor, nosso caminho é claro, Monscrabel, Monscrabel, és nosso lar!
