Anthem maker

Postby Zwangzug » Tue Sep 01, 2009 3:08 pm

If you'd like a ghostwritten national anthem for your country, post here and I'll see what I can do! If you don't want something ridiculously generic, some specific requests (i.e. to the same tune as @@RealSong@@/featuring @@AwesomeThingAboutYourCountry@@/something else that gives me a starting point) would be appreciated, but not to a ridiculous extent--maybe I'm naive, but I'll trust you to know what I mean. For example, this was requested to be based off the Soviet anthem while omitting reference to the country's flag. (Since some of the content in that thread has been edited out, I'm starting a new one.)

Can I have something about the Eagle representing the strength of Rasoana and our citizens are such loyal people. I would like this to the "Hymn of the Russian Federation"

EDIT:Also, can you add something in there about the bald eagle represents justice and courage

How's this? There's only one verse, but it's supposed to cover a lot of ground. Or sky. :p

Rasoana! Country to which we are loyal
Rasoana! Country we love and revere
Made mighty and strong by your citizens' toil
An eagle enduring for year after year.

While the bald eagle flies, courage and justice soar
Surely our homeland stands proud and stands strong
As proud as its people are of their heritage
As strong as eagles, and prosper for long!

Ok. This looks cool. I would like our national anthem to feature something about capitalism and prosperity. Free-market things like that. Perhaps liberty and freedom in general as well.

If, and this is far from required, you could feature the line "free market capitalism, path to prosperity" in there that would be awesome as well, as that is our motto. In English anyway.

I would like an anthem that shows the power of the private sector and business. It must be anti-Communist and pro-Capitalist. Thanks.

The tune should be based off of the Italian National Anthem.

I tried fitting your motto into an original song, but a preexisting one is taking it a little too far. :p

Anyhow, I'm lazy, so here's one verse and a chorus, see how you like it...

Let us forever go forward, seeing in clarity
A future bright where liberty will bless us.
Free market capitalism, path to prosperity,
Lead us in freedom to many successes.

In freedom we strive, and our work yields only
The fruits of our labor and endless endeavor
In liberty we create, trade, and prosper
May such freedom thrive in Sibirsky forever!

For History Land? The given line ("Individual profit...") is supposed to start around 1:56 of the tape--you might have to squeeze a few syllables together, but hopefully it works! :p

One by one, day by day, effort yields wealth.
One by one, we succeed, liberty all we need.
Freedom rings free and clear, its melody
Truth and objectivity.
One by one, freedom rings
And its song echoes through history.

On our own we achieve, earning our way
Never losing sight of
Individual profit and individual freedom.
On our own, we succeed.
No tyrant shall destroy us!
And all those who employ us
Shall see wealth grow
In freedom forever.
History's pride!
