To us you have given blood and land
You are more ancient than the ancient history of man;
To us you have brought apocalypse and solace
Exposing our descendants to the true looks of our ancestors
Through the veil of fatal uncertainties;
You bless us with affection and bestow caresses on life
Making us feel nature's grace and understand nature's benevolence;
Our dignity you safeguard
From the harms of hostile people
You are the taboo, the vocation and the vision
Creating a source of boundless joy
And allowing us to sing to our heart's content;
When we bid farewell to this world
In your eyes can be discerned no trace of grief
But you would silently clad the soul of every one of us
With a costume of eternity
Consuming all our earthly wealth and poverty
