1. I salute etiquette and manners,
I salute joy and delight.

2. And I dance around a feast,
That hosts the eminent nobles.

3. And I quench the youth with my liver,
The draft of poetry, not wine.

4. And I sacrifice for knowledge with my blood,
A youth for knowledge a prey.

5. Souls for life have become,
Leading the active throng.

6. And purified spirits,
That showed their purity a wonder.

7. And sanctified hearts,
That aspired for freedom and Fatherland.

8. And electrified ambitions,
That race for the heights steps.

9. Bonds of affection connect them,
And kinship ties them together.

10. The right hand of the sun raises them,
To rise above the sun and comets.

11. And the caller of knowledge seeks them,
To reap goodness and gold.

12. And the voice of seriousness rouses them,
To attain at his presence the highest seats.

13. O kindred country and those,
Who came with affection commissioned.

14. We are all one homeland,
Affiliated to the East tomorrow.
