Grand songs of joy ring out across the land 
because Liberty will always prevail 
against oppressive greed of tyranny 
that ever will possess the weakest hearts 
of men who attack to control through fear 
but fall apart when we defy their rage. 

Bangs of bullets ring out across the land 
when young men, seething with anger from pain 
at how unfair life is to every soul, 
grab assault rifles with weak trembling hands 
and exercise their constitutional right 
to kill the innocent in self-defense. 

Cries of sorrow ring out across the land 
each time another person with no name 
carved on Celestial Stone of Destiny 
is shot by blind bullet of helpless rage 
by weak boys who are terrified by death, 
that faceless demon who haunts our footsteps. 

Shouts of laughter ring out across the land 
when children run along the river shore 
where people gather for the festival 
to celebrate rich bounty of the Earth 
who provides good food to nourish our souls 
then consumes our bodies after we die. 

Spells of wisdom ring out across the land 
through epic tales that present noble deeds 
of brave heroes with courage in their hearts 
who fight to defend people of the world 
against thieves who invade to enslave our souls 
so we can live free in homes we create. 

Shouts of surprise ring out across the land 
when brother turns against brother to fight 
for who will rule the garden of fruit trees, 
clashing in brutal battle of sharp wits 
till one triumphs and founds empire of greed 
to unite nations with law of the sword. 

Whispers of hope ring out across the land 
on frail butterfly wings of patient faith 
when people of the land oppressed by greed 
gather in cave of illusions to plan 
bold revolution against tyranny 
in brave fight for Justice and Liberty. 

Hymns of victory ring out across the land 
when Liberty defeats dictatorship 
to preserve strong state of democracy 
that fills our hearts with patriotic love 
for way of life our forefathers designed 
where every soul is equal in the law.
