Current:
| Istalian: Fratelli d'Istalia l'Istalia s'è desta, dell'elmo di Scitio s'è cinta la testa. Dov'è la Vittoria? Le porga la chioma, ché schiava di Romula Iddio la creò. Stringiamci a coorte siam pronti alla morte l'Istalia chiamò. Noi siamo da secoli calpesti, derisi, perché non siam popolo, perché siam divisi. Raccolgaci un'unica bandiera, una speme: di fonderci insieme già l'ora suonò. Stringiamci a coorte siam pronti alla morte l'Istalia chiamò. Uniamoci, amiamoci, l'Unione, e l'amore rivelano ai Popoli le vie del Signore; Giuriamo far libero il suolo natìo: uniti per Dio chi vincer ci può? Stringiamci a coorte siam pronti alla morte l'Istalia chiamò. Son giunchi che piegano le spade vendute: già il majatrano quanzaro le fruste ha perdute. Il sangue d'Istalia, il sangue sì sacro, bevé di un sol fiato, ma il cor gli bruciò. Stringiamci a coorte siam pronti alla morte l'Istalia chiamò. Luthorian: Brothers of Istalia, Istalia has awakened, with Scipio's helmet She has bound her head. Where is Victory? Let her bow down, for God has made her Romula's slave. Let us join in cohort, we are ready to die! Istalia has called! We have been for centuries downtrodden and derided, for we are not one people, for we are divided. Let one flag, one hope gather us all: for us to be unified the hour has already struck. Let us join in cohort, we are ready to die! Istalia has called! Let us unite and love one another; union and love show the people the way of the Lord; Let us swear to free our native soil: united under God, who can defeat us? Let us join in cohort, we are ready to die! Istalia has called! They're reeds that bend mercenary swords: the Quanzari Majatran has already lost his wiskes. The blood of Istalia, the blood so sacred, he drank fast but it burned her heart. Let us join in cohort, we are ready to die! Istalia has called! |
Proposed:
| United forever in friendship and labour, Our mighty soviets will ever endure! The great Quanzari union Will live through the ages The dreams of our people In our soviets secure. [Chorus] Long live our soviet motherland, Built by the people's mighty hand. Long live our workers united and free! Strong in our friendship tried by fire, Long may our crimson flag inspire, Shining in glory for all the world to see. Through days dark and stormy Our workers took control, Our eyes saw the bright sun of freedom above. With soviets our weapons And labour our armour, We fought to build the land that we love. [Chorus] We'll fight for the future And destroy the invader And brought to our homeland the laurels of fame. A glory will live in the memory of nations and all generations will honour our name. [Chorus] |

| Message | I love the anthem, but if I can suggest the motto I'd go for "El pueblo unido jamás será vencido" |
| Date | 19:13:16, September 24, 2005 CET | From | Tudeh Party of Quanzar | To | Debating the National Anthem Act |
| Message | "The people united shall never be" something or other? I'm not sure about having it in Spanish, I don't see any reason for that to be so, really, unless I'm missing a blatantly obvious link or something. |
| Date | 19:31:09, September 24, 2005 CET | From | NeoSocialist Party | To | Debating the National Anthem Act |
| Message | The people united will never be defeated. It has quite a good sound when they chant it in South America. It is quite a famous socialist slogan nowdays, and I thought it was acceptable enough. I guess I'll live with that ^^ |
| Date | 12:55:10, September 25, 2005 CET | From | Tudeh Party of Quanzar | To | Debating the National Anthem Act |
| Message | Well, what do other people think? I reckon it's perfectly acceptable. |
| Date | 13:38:39, September 25, 2005 CET | From | NeoSocialist Party | To | Debating the National Anthem Act |
| Message | I accept it of 'course. But It raised an interesting question? What is the culture of Quanzar? Arab? Persian? I'd really like a mixture, like Malaysia (i.e. demographics around 50% Malay, 25% Tamil 25% Chinese) which is quite related to our history anyway |
| Date | 14:13:41, September 25, 2005 CET | From | Tudeh Party of Quanzar | To | Debating the National Anthem Act |
| Message | I think that we should have a proper parliamentary debate about that, and perhaps pass a resolution. |
| Date | 19:27:49, September 30, 2005 CET | From | Tudeh Party of Quanzar | To | Debating the National Anthem Act |
| Message | I'll leave a new motto for another time. |
