A long time ago we reached the lands

Where we now live

The rich nature fed us

And it was where we gained our strength

What our forefathers possessed

Our descendants will inherit

They are the Lands of the People

They must remain in the possession of the people (x3)

Then they came, those whose eyes are different

Introduced their way of life

They taught their holy scriptures

And wanted to influence everything

Their crowned heads

Bid them to rule our lands

Take our riches

And sell them over our heads (x3)

To you whom we have elected

We've been asleep

As a united people we will rise again

What our forefathers possessed

Our descendants must inherit

They are the Lands of the People

They should be governed as one

They must remain in the people's possession (x2)
