Does your country have a national anthem?

Postby Folder Land » Sun Aug 21, 2011 2:27 am

The Kingdom of Folder Land does! It is to the tune of "God save the Queen"

"Long live our Gracious King
Given to us By God.
Long may he reign
Giver of our freedom
We give our lifes to him
Long to be blessed by God.
Long live our King."
Political compass(in real life):
Economic Left/Right: 5.88

Yes it does. It is the Hymn of the Satanic Empire AKA Battle Hymn of the Apocalypse. Here are two versions of it:

Good tune, no lyrics:

The national anthem of New Hayesalia is a classic, written and performed for the first time on Amalgamation Day, the first day of New Hayesalia. Only three or so people had heard it before; crowd reception was amazing.

The National Anthem- Light (see below for words)

Starts 0:22

New Hayesalia,
Born once more,
Raised to light,
We will take forth our right,
To take on the night,
With sword and heart,
Our precious light,
For we are raised to light.

<pause, next kicks in at 0:51>

From deserts to our north,
To sea at our south,
And life in between all,
With our own light,
A heart of steel,
We seek whats right,
For all who are great and small,
We guide us all.

<pause, next kicks in at 1:20>

We will continue what we know is right,
We will fight until we meet the night,
We will,
March on,
And assure that we guide all,
Through night and day,
With pleasure, and honor, we will take them to the,
Light!

<1:48>

We see to our soverign,
And to the lowest creature,
To nature and all,
We hold dear to us,
And we will assure the future,
Through thin and through thick,
We'll continue on,
Lighting the world.

<2:18>

And when all is said and done,
We'll look forwards once more,
Return to our good heart,
For honor, for glory,
We'll maintain the universes' light,
For all,
And keep rising upon high,
And then when we are noted,
We will look on again,
And we will rise forwards,
And lo and behold,
We'll shine a light,
Rise to the fight,
Tonight we,
Become one once more.

<3:07>

And all New Hayesalians,
For all and for country,
We will fight,
We will rise,
We shall bring forwards the light.

It is Ode to the Motherland with Maoist references removed.
for example 五星紅旗迎風飄揚, "Five stars red flag fluttering in the wind"
Has been replaced with 多彩色旗迎風飄揚, "Multicoloured flag is fluttering in the wind"

We have, not so much an anthem as a creed, though:

Society, a plague within itself.

Centered on schismatic, unimportant, self-defeating paradigms of behaviour, blind to all that really matters, drawn away by a false sense of self-righteousness, a shallow dream of salvation, the systems and the order, a system of belief - the perfect anti-human device.

"And when fire rains down from the skies, mankind shall reap what it has sown."

They sow the seeds of self-destruction, and these will burst up and incinerate them in the infernal flames of hatred.

They sow the seeds of self-pity, and these will tear open the warp and condemn them to the pitiless abyss of annihilation.

They sow the seeds of false friendship, and these will grow and entwine them in an inescapable net of solitude, and bring them death therein.

By then, it will be too late to realise the fallacy of what they believed in.

And when the fires of chaos rain down upon the so-called faithful, it is their souls that will be damned to their hell, and not ours!

And from the ashes of this armageddon, those true souls shall rise, those freed of the chains of conformity which dragged them deeper into the void, into the chasm of lies and deception that swallows the spirit.

Those who have risen will begin a new chapter, overcome the tribulations of the past and attain a new wisdom, the wisdom which will purge us of those false ideals which brought mankind to its knees!

As the lantern of a new era falls upon the unfeeling ground, as it was told by the ancient, the new order is born!

All hail the dawn of anarchy!
All hail the dawn of revelation!
All hail the dawn of enlightenment
All hail the dawn of truth!

Aurorum Veritas!
Verum omnia superat.

Het Strijdlied has been the Herrebrughian national anthem since the 14th of july 2011.

Dutch lyrics
--------------

Allerwege in de landen
Zwelt de drom der strijders aan,
Die zich scharen vastbesloten,
Om de rode vrijheidsvaan.
Eén van wil en één van denken
't Is de onweerstaan'bre macht,
Die den arbeid zal bevrijden
Uit de kluisters van den nacht.

Miljoenen proletaren,
Weldra zal de zegepraal
Kronen d'onbesmette waap'nen,
Van ons heerlijk ideaal.
Kronen d'onbesmette waap'nen,
Van ons heerlijk ideaal.

En die enk'len die bezwijken
Moegestreën of neergesard,
Hun bewaren wij vol liefde
De ereplaats in 't dankbaar hart.
't Droevig lot dier martelaren
Staalt nog meer ons in den strijd!
Wis wordt eens hun leed gewroken
Als de arbeid is bevrijd!

Miljoenen proletaren,
Weldra zal de zegepraal
Kronen d'onbesmette waap'nen,
Van ons heerlijk ideaal.
Kronen d'onbesmette waap'nen,
Van ons heerlijk ideaal.

Translated English lyrics
----------------------------

In every country and nation
Sounds the voice of partisans,
Who unite determined,
'round the free red workers' flag.
One of will and one of thinking
'tis the overwhelming might,
That will free the workman's labour
From the darkness of the night

Millions of proletarians
Soon will our victory
Crown our unpolluted weapons
Of our greater ideal
Crown our unpolluted weapons
Of our greater ideal

And those ones who succumb
Fought to tiredness or death,
We remember them with love
Honoured in our thankful heart.
The sad faiths of martyrs
Hardens us in our fight!
As their suff'ring will be avenged
When the labour has been freed

Millions of proletarians
Soon will our victory
Crown our unpolluted weapons
Of our greater ideal
Crown our unpolluted weapons
Of our greater ideal

"Concentration of power in a political machine is bad; and an Established Church is only a political machine; it was invented for that; it is nursed, cradled, preserved for that; it is an enemy to human liberty, and does no good which it could not better do in a split-up and scattered condition." - Mark Twain

Hippostania, Our Fatherland - De jure anthem, popular among humans

Hippostania, our Fatherland
The land of harmony
May humans and ponies
Stand united as one
A new dawn awaits us
And we're going to rebuild
Oh, our great and free fatherland
United by peace


Unite Our Herd - Not an official anthem, but it's a popular song among ponies

Blessed bodies of the Heavens
Sun and Moon of greatest light
Bathe us in your warm embraces
Shield us with your peerless might
Help us to stand firm as mountains
Doing right and shunning wrong
May we find our strength in friendship
Unite our herd as one group strong.

Kindness save our herd from sorrow
Laughter lift us through the day
Honesty shall purge our anger
Generous we'll be in our ways
Loyal to our roots remain us
Day by day the magic swells.
Love and tolerance shall lead us
O'er the seas and hills and dells.

In brotherhood we stand together
In sisterhood may we find grace
The Sun and Moon shall ever guide our
Never ending pony race!
Why should we fear threats of discord
Standing now all here as one?
We shall find our strength in friendship
Herd unite as one group strong

Our small but very proud nation has adopted the rock song "Voodoo Child" by Jimi Hendrix as our national anthem. We pay his estate royalties every time we perform it. It is very popular at our officially state sanctioned "Love-ins" that we hold every year to commemorate the anniversary of the Woodstock festival that occured in the United States of America on Yasgur's (I believe that is how his name is spelled) farm during the summer of love in the year 1968 (or was it 1969 ?) , no matter , it was during the late 1960's. Our "Love-ins" are very popular even though the drinking of alcohol is strictly prohibited. We do however, encourage the use of a certain plant variety that most of the world considers a "weed". In addition, the use of a certain "acid" is encouraged also. The "Love-in" lasts for an entire month and ends with a fireworks display that is visable throughout the entire country. It is a free festival and any music performer is allowed to play his music as long as it isn't music that promotes violence or social unrest. A good time is had by all. Also, medical teams are always at the ready, and food is free for everyone that attends, and there are plenty of restrooms and sleeping arrangements for everyone. Planning for next year's event begins the day after the festival ends so that any situation that presents itself can be handled quite efficiently and with little effort. Please forgive my long windedness, I seem to have gone off on a tangent. Oh well.
