Current:
| National Anthem of Dankuk - 'Tierra Adorada' Kyo: 一 아침의 땅이여, 해는 아이에게 돌아간다네, 불타는 열정은, 우리의 영혼을 숭배하지 않는다네. 사랑하고 거룩한 땅이여, 귀족 영웅의 요람은, 정복자를 찾지 못하네 그대의 바다는 밟혔네. 하늘과 구름을 넘지 않으면, 그대의 언덕과 바다 위에 아른거리네. 빛을 보면, 영광스런 자유를 느끼네. 아버지의 깃발은 우리 모두의 마음을 사랑하네 해와 별이 내려오네. 오, 그대가 평원에 비치지 않는다면, 폭군에게는 빛나지 않을 것이네! 사랑과 빛과 아름다움의 땅이여, 포옹은 거짓말이네. 하지만 예술계에서 실패해도 영광이네. 우리를 위해 아들은 희생하리라. 一 Draniano: Tierra adorada Hija del sol de Oriente, Su fuego ardiente En ti latiendo está. ¡Tierra de amores! Del heroísmo cuna, Los invasores No te hollarán jamás. En tu azul cielo, en tus auras, En tus montes y en tu mar Esplende y late el poema De tu amada libertad. Tu pabellón, que en las lides La victoria iluminó, No verá nunca apagados Sus estrellas ni su sol. Tierra de dichas, del sol y amores, En tu regazo dulce es vivir. Es una gloria para tus hijos, Cuando te ofenden, por ti morir. (Tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XT1VHI5m3_Q) Royal Anthem of Dankuk - 'Live Ten Thousand Years' 君臣義重 父子恩硬 榮史之子 千年萬歲 (Tune: https://youtu.be/QPdhmc6Op-A?t=30 ending at the 0:55 mark) |
Proposed:
| "It is the most delightful country to be found Of greatest repute under the sun; Trees drooping with fruit and blossom, And foliage growing on the tops of boughs. "Abundant, there, are honey and wine, And everything that eye has beheld, There will not come decline on thee with lapse of time. Death or decay thou wilt not see" |

| Message | Umm... again, I can see the reasons to change the anthem... but why don't we get a worthwhile anthem. Not that... thing. |

| Message | If you suggest a better anthem I would surely support it. I don't like my proposition: it's only a first step to delete this stupid anthem. Next time I will propose "-": it's surely more intelligent than current anthem... |

| Message | So you wish to change a century old anthem (that is dear to many citizens hearts after their ancestors lived through the Welsh crisis) with a hymn that quite frankly would make us all sound like a bunch of limp-wristed faggots? Not on our watch! Your flagrant disregard of our nation's history is abhorrent! |

| Message | Hows about this becomes our Anthem: "Zemlja i Volja, Don't ya know we told ya, Don't try to help the Welsh again, You'll never, ever, ever win, Because the voters HATE THE WELSH!" |
