"Where were you on April 25, 1974?" - In Historyem - April 2021- Freedom Month

Where were you on April 25, 1974?

Started with “Grândola Vila Morena”

A coup that became a revolution

A succession of events

Some confusion in the streets.

 

This movement of captains

It took place in 1974, at the end of April,

After the failed attempt on March 16

A coup that also became civil.

 

A saleswoman distributed carnations

The soldiers stuffed them in their rifles

Civilians put this flower to their chest

A lot of people in uniforms all around.

 

Marcelo Caetano

Had to hand over the power

General Spínola was the successor

Until the Portuguese can choose.

 

After the dictatorship

Democracy came

The third Portuguese republic

It took some audacity.

 

Many personalities stood out

Salgueiro Maia stands out

A hero of April

That fell into oblivion!

 

Do you remember where you were?

I wasn't born yet

This is a historic period

That should not be overlooked!

 

Antagonistically

This year we mark this date

This question plagued me

A curiosity that doesn't kill!
