Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Egelionese do loyally declaim About the way we rule the waves. Every Pontesian's song was just the same When singing of her soldier-braves. All the world has heard it-- Wonders why we sing, And Egelion learned the reason why-- We're not forgetting it, We're not letting it Fade away and gradually die, Fade away and gradually die. So when we say that the Company’s master Remember who has made her so It's the soldiers of the Queen, my lads Who've fought, my lads, who've conquered, my lads In the fight for the Company's glory lads When we've had to show them what we mean: And when we say we've always won And when they ask us how it's done We'll proudly point to every one Of the Company's soldiers of the Queen.
Current:
| Oh Egelion serás recordada como tierra impugnable al invasor tus bahías eternas serán testimonio de la sangre que la guerra vertió Que el silencio de tus campos floridos deje testimonio de la eterna nación arrancad el puñal al tirano destruid al monárquico opresor Oh Egelion tus hijos libres vivirán y esos monstruos que cargan con su sangre la servil e infame esclavitud nunca jamás podrán compararán con el grito eterno de Libertad. |
Proposed:
| ¡Arriba, parias de la Tierra! ¡En pie, famélica legión! Atruena la razón en marcha: es el fin de la opresión. Del pasado hay que hacer añicos. ¡Legión esclava en pie a vencer! El mundo va a cambiar de base. Los nada de hoy todo han de ser. Agrupémonos todos, en la lucha final. El género humano es la internacional. |
