Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Best of nations! at Thy feet In the bonds of love we meet, Hear our voices, we entreat, We defend our Free Land. Guard Trigunia's single star, From the shafts of strife and war, Make her praises heard afar, We defend Trigunia Men of every creed and race Gather here before Thy face, Asking Thee to bless this place, We defend our Free Land. From dissension, envy, hate, And corruption guard our State, Make our country good and great, We defend Trigunia. Peace, not war, shall be our boast, But, should foes assail our coast, Make us then a mighty host, We defend our Free Land. Lord of battles in thy might, Put our enemies to flight, Let our cause be just and right, We defend Trigunia. Let our love for Thee increase, May Thy blessings never cease, Give us plenty, give us peace, We defend our Free Land. From dishonour and from shame Guard our country's spotless name Crown her with immortal fame, We defend Trigunia. May our mountains ever be Freedom's ramparts on the sea, Make us faithful unto Thee, We defend our Free Land. Guide her in the nations' van, Preaching love and truth to man, Working out Thy Glorious plan, We defend Trigunia.

Vmeste s brat'yami khrabro vekami My zashchishchali rodnoy porog, V bitvakh za volyu, bitvakh za dolyu Svoye dobyvali znamya pobed! Pripev Druzhba narodov – sila narodov – Nash zavetnyy, solnechnyy put'. Gordo zh vozveysya v yasnyye vysi, Znamya pobednoye – radosti flag!
