1. Our brothers, welcome and greetings,
It is your right, our submission and obligation,

2. For our land is pasture for you, not barren,
In it for you is lawful, good sustenance,

3. And we are glad that we see countries,
Against the enemy, aides for its people,

4. If we mentioned sins to you,
Your driving away the foreigner has atoned them,

5. And that they were events that benefited you,
Your conquered through them as you benefited,

6. You wounded us that you might wake us,
And lulled us that they might shackle us,

7. And the young man may test on his body,
His weapon he prepares for his foe,

8. In us when you come, holding the reins,
Beautiful your smile upon the Germans,

9. And we will meet under Buddha's shade,
When we unite in a sweet creed.
