Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Selucia, Selucia, Gem of the ocean, Selucia, Selucia, Land that I love! Let us uphold her, Let us defend her, Selucia, Selucia, Victory is ours!
Current:
| Aeterna Gloria Seluciae (Eternal Glory of Selucia) Selucian (Latin): O Selucia, terra gloriosa, Fulgens antiquitatis luce resplendens. Nobilitas et virtus, in aeternum, Fortitudine et honore, inclita gens. In umbra silentii, resonat vox antiqua, Gloria et potentia, aeternum vive! Memoriae sacrae, ad astra conscendimus, Nomen tuum, Selucia, semper vive! Per tenebras et bellum, ad astra volamus, Virtute et fide, ad gloriam ambulamus. Speramus et amamus, patriae caritatem, Seluciae lux, aeternum mane! Luthorian (English): Oh Selucia, land of glory, Shining brightly with the light of antiquity. Nobility and virtue, forever, With strength and honor, renowned people. In the shadow of silence, echoes the ancient voice, Live eternal glory and power! To sacred memories, we ascend to the stars, Your name, Selucia, always endure! Through darkness and war, we soar to the stars, With courage and faith, we walk to glory. We hope and love, the affection for our homeland, Selucia's light, forever stay! |
Proposed:
| Names that sound familiar Secret wounds from failure Try and look into their eyes A part of the weekend never dies There's no tension in your dance As you try and hold my hand chorus: It's not you it's the e-talking Closing in on the translation It's not you it's the e-talking I'm not sure which part I'm playing Look and I come in between Faces you have never seen Silence re-alarms go wild Rock stop paint me melt to lie As you weep things work the same But I can't recall your name chorus: It's not you it's the e-talking Closing in on the translation It's not you it's the e-talking I'm not sure which part I'm playing Stranger at your own Party feels like home Late night phonecalls Try to please all chorus: It's not you it's the e-talking Closing in on the translation It's not you it's the e-talking I'm not sure which part I'm playing |
