No jokes.

Please do not feel sorry for me

So you can fall in love with me.

You can forget to smile

The enemies of our country will die
But our country will survive
Our people silently have fought
Countless ferocious battles

Les ennemis de notre pays mourront

Notre peuple s'est battu en silence
Et a pris part à diverses batailles féroces

We need to revive our dead now
So they can get their justice
It is often said that the dead are wrong

...

Nous devons ressusciter maintenant nos morts
Pour qu'ils obtiennent leur justice
On dit souvent que les morts ont tort
Ils sont morts à cause de leurs tristes vices.
