The text for the anthem was adapted from a 1924 speech by Sun Yat-sen, who was the first head of state of the Republic of China. The Kuomintang party held a contest for the accompanying music, and Cheng Maoyun's composition was chosen for the national anthem.The "Three Principles of the People" was adopted in 1930 as the national anthem of China (then the Republic of China). Following its defeat by the Chinese Communist Party in the Chinese Civil War in 1949, the government of the Republic of China was relegated to the Island of Taiwan, where "San Min Chu-i" remains the national anthem. The war ended with Communist control of mainland China, and the ROC anthem was replaced by the "March of the Volunteers" in Mainland China.The image shown in the video is a 1930 photograph of the Bund in Shanghai.Lyrics and Transliterations:Lyrics:三民主義，吾黨所宗，以建民國，以進大同，咨爾多士，為民前鋒，夙夜匪懈，主義是從，矢勤矢勇，必信必忠，一心一德，貫徹始終。Transliteration:San-min-chu-i, Wu-tang so tsung;i-chien min-kuo, i-chin ta-t'ung.Tzu erh to-shih, wei min ch'ien-feng;su-yeh fei-hsieh, chu-i shih ts'ung.Shih ch'in shih yung, pi hsin pi chung;i-hsin i-te, kuan-ch'e shih-chung.Literal English Translation:Three people's principlesThe foundation of our party.Using this, we establish the Republic;Using this, we advance into a state of total peace.Oh, you, righteous men,For the people, be the vanguard.Without resting day or night,Follow the Principles.Swear to be diligent; swear to be courageous.Obliged to be trustworthy; obliged to be loyal.With one heart and one virtue,We carry through until the very end...Official English Version (Poetic Translation):San Min Chu-iOur aim shall be:To found a free land,World peace, be our stand.Lead on, comrades,Vanguards ye are.Hold fast your aim,By sun and star.Be earnest and brave,Your country to save,One heart, one soul,One mind, one goal...Korean Transcription:삼민주의, 오당소종,이건민국, 이진대동,자이다사, 위민전봉,숙야비해, 주의시종,시근시용, 필신필충,일심일덕, 관철시종!Japanese Transcription:さんびんしゅぎ, ごとうしょしゅういけんびんこく, いしんだいどうしじたし, いびんぜんほうしゅくやひけ, しゅぎぜじゅうしきんしゆう, ひっしんひっちゅういっしんいっとく, かんてっししゅうVietnamese Transcription:Tam Dân Chủ nghĩa, ngô đảng sở tông;Dĩ kiến Dân Quốc, dĩ tiến đại đồng.Tư nhĩ đa sĩ, vì dân tiền phong;Túc dạ phỉ giải, Chủ nghĩa thị tòng.Thỉ cần thỉ dũng, tất tín tất trung;Nhất tâm nhất đức, quán triệt thủy chung.The music in this video was made using Logic Pro.

Deutschlandlied – Lullaby Version Forte Republic 2025-02-22 | Hello! This is a lullaby instrumental version of Deutschlandlied.Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/4vOLhhxFrWUyxjBCibfCC9?si=2MvYX4ZpQHSdGGCfl5SaKwDiscord: discord.com/invite/SGMHeZ7Instagram: instagram.com/forterepublicDeutschlandlied (officially titled "Das Lied der Deutschen") is the national anthem of Germany. Its tune, originally called "Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser," was composed by Joseph Haydn in 1797 as a personal hymn for Francis II, who was the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and later the emperor of Austria. After the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire, the Austrian Empire adopted the tune as its national anthem, changing the words from "Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser" to "Gott erhalte, Gott Beschütze." Austro-Hungarian Empire used the tune as its national anthem until its dissolution in 1918.The lyrics to the German national anthem were written by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben in 1841, prior to German unification. The first verse includes the words "Deutschland über alles in der welt," meaning "Germany, above all in the world." These words were intended to be a call to prioritize a united Germany over the sovereignty of the small German states. The geographical boundaries of Germany included in the first verse do not fall within modern Germany but were within the German Confederation when the lyrics were written. However, due to Germany's history in the first half of the twentieth century, the first verse is often criticized for having an imperialistic tone. Hoffmann von Fallersleben also intended for the lyrics to be used as a drinking song, and the second verse includes mentions of German women, wine, and music. Only the third verse, which calls for unity, justice, and freedom, has been used in Germany since the end of the Second World War.The English hymn "Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken" is sung to the tune of Deutschlandlied, as is the alma mater of Columbia University, "Stand Columbia."The image in the video is a photograph of crowds at the Reichstag building on October 3, 1990.Lyrics:Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,Über alles in der Welt,Wenn es stets zu Schutz und TrutzeBrüderlich zusammenhält;Von der Maas bis an die Memel,Von der Etsch bis an den Belt:Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,Über alles in der Welt!Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,Deutscher Wein und deutscher SangSollen in der Welt behaltenIhren alten schönen Klang,Uns zu edler Tat begeisternUnser ganzes Leben lang:Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang!Einigkeit und Recht und FreiheitFür das deutsche Vaterland!Danach lasst uns alle strebenBrüderlich mit Herz und Hand!Einigkeit und Recht und FreiheitSind des Glückes Unterpfand;Blüh im Glanze dieses Glückes,Blühe, deutsches Vaterland!Original lyrics:Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser, Unsern guten Kaiser Franz!Lange lebe Franz der Kaiser, In des Glückes hellstem Glanz!Ihm erblühen Lorbeerreiser, Wo er geht, zum Ehrenkranz!Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser, Unsern guten Kaiser Franz!Later Austrian lyrics:Gott erhalte, Gott beschützeunsern Kaiser, unser Land!Mächtig durch des Glaubens Stützeführ' Er uns mit weiser Hand!Lasst uns Seiner Väter Kroneschirmen wider jeden Feind;Innig bleibt mit Habsburgs ThroneÖsterreichs Geschick vereint.

"The Star-Spangled Banner" was adopted as the national anthem of the United States on March 3, 1931, under President Herbert Hoover. The anthem has four verses, though only the first verse is commonly sung.Lyrics:O! say can you see by the dawn's early light,What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?And the Rockets' red glare, the Bombs bursting in air,Gave proof through the night that our Flag was still there;O! say does that star-spangled Banner yet wave,O'er the Land of the free and the home of the brave?On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep,Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,In full glory reflected now shines on the stream,'Tis the star-spangled banner, O! long may it waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.And where is that band who so vauntingly sworeThat the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,A home and a country should leave us no more?Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.No refuge could save the hireling and slave,From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave,And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave,O'er the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand,Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation,Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the Heav'n rescued land,Praise the Power that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,And this be our motto—"In God is our Trust;"And the star-spangled Banner in triumph shall wave,O'er the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.Lyrics of "To Anacreon in Heaven"1To Anacreon in Heav'n, where he sat in full Glee,A few Sons of Harmony sent a Petition,That he their Inspirer and Patron would be;When this answer arriv'd from the Jolly Old Grecian"Voice, Fiddle, and Flute,"no longer be mute,"I'll lend you my Name and inspire you to boot,"And, besides I'll instruct you, like me, to intwine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."2The news through Olympus immediately flew;When Old Thunder pretended to give himself Airs."If these Mortals are suffer'd their Scheme to persue,"The Devil a Goddess will stay above Stairs."Hark! already they cry,"In transports of Joy,"Away to the Sons of Anacreon we'll fly,"And there, with good Fellows, we'll learn to intwine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine.3"The Yellow-Hair'd God and his nine fusty Maids,"From Helicon's banks will incontinent flee,"Idalia will boast but of tenantless Shades,"And the bi-forked Hill a mere Desart will be"My Thunder no fear on't,"Shall soon do it's Errand,"And dam'me! I'll swinge the Ringleaders, I warrant."I'll trim the young Dogs, for thus daring to twine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."4Apollo rose up, and said, "Pry'thee ne'er quarrel,"Good King of the Gods, with my Vot'ries below:"Your Thunder is useless"—then shewing his Laurel,Cry'd "Sic evitabile fulmen, you know!"Then over each head"My Laurels I'll spread;"So my Sons from your Crackers no Mischief shall dread,"Whilst snug in their Club-Room, they jovially twine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."5Next Momus got up with his risible Phiz,And swore with Apollo he'd chearfully join—"The full Tide of Harmony still shall be his,"But the Song, and the Catch, and the Laugh shall be mine."Then, Jove, be not jealous"Of these honest fellows."Cry'd Jove, "We relent, since the Truth you now tell us;"And swear by Old Styx, that they long shall intwine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."6Ye Sons of Anacreon, then join Hand in Hand;Preserve Unanimity, Friendship, and Love!'Tis your's to support what's so happily plann'd;You've the sanction of Gods, and the Fiat of Jove.While thus we agree,Our Toast let it be.May our Club flourish happy, united, and free!And long may the Sons of Anacreon intwineThe Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine.This music was made using Logic Pro.

Its lyrics were written as a poem by Max Schneckenburger during the Rhine Crisis of 1840, which stoked fears of French expansionism. The musical setting to the poem was composed by Karl Wilhelm in 1854. Though the song calls for the defense of the Rhine, the fighting in the aforementioned wars that followed took place instead in France, to the west of the Rhine."Die Wacht Am Rhein" has been adapted for use as an alma mater for several institutions, most notably "Bright College Years," the alma mater of Yale University since 1881. During the Great War, the use of a German tune was questioned, and the Yale College Council proposed a ban on the song. Most alumni clubs voted in favor of keeping it, and it has since remained as the university's alma mater. The image shown in the video is a painting of the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress.Lyrics of both the original song and the Yale University alma mater are provided below.LyricsEs braust ein Ruf wie Donnerhall,wie Schwertgeklirr und Wogenprall:Zum Rhein, zum Rhein, zum deutschen Rhein,wer will des Stromes Hüter sein?Refrain:Lieb Vaterland, magst ruhig sein,lieb Vaterland, magst ruhig sein,Fest steht und treu die Wacht, die Wacht am Rhein!Fest steht und treu die Wacht, die Wacht am Rhein!Durch Hunderttausend zuckt es schnell,und aller Augen blitzen hell;der Deutsche, bieder, fromm und stark,beschützt die heil'ge Landesmark.RefrainEr blickt hinauf in Himmelsau'n,wo Heldenväter niederschau'n,und schwört mit stolzer Kampfeslust:Du Rhein bleibst deutsch wie meine Brust!RefrainSolang ein Tropfen Blut noch glüht,noch eine Faust den Degen zieht,und noch ein Arm die Büchse spannt,betritt kein Feind hier deinen Strand!Refrain Und ob mein Herz im Tode bricht,wirst du doch drum ein Welscher nicht.Reich, wie an Wasser deine Flut,ist Deutschland ja an Heldenblut!RefrainDer Schwur erschallt, die Woge rinntdie Fahnen flattern hoch im Wind:Am Rhein, am Rhein, am deutschen Rheinwir alle wollen Hüter sein.RefrainYale Alma MaterBright College years, with pleasure rife,The shortest, gladdest years of life;How swiftly are ye gliding by!Oh, why doth time so quickly fly?The seasons come, the seasons go,The earth is green or white with snow,But time and change shall naught availTo break the friendships formed at Yale.In after years, should troubles riseTo cloud the blue of sunny skies,How bright will seem, through mem’ry’s hazeThose happy, golden, bygone days!Oh, let us strive that ever weMay let these words our watch-cry be,Where’er upon life’s sea we sail:“For God, for Country and for Yale!”English Lyrics:The cry resounds like thunder's peal,Like crashing waves and clang of steel:The Rhine, the Rhine, our German Rhine,Who will defend our stream, divine?Chorus:Dear fatherland, no fear be thine,Dear fatherland, no fear be thine,Firm stands the Watch along, along the Rhine!Firm stands the Watch along, along the Rhine!They stand, a hundred thousand strong,Quick to avenge their country's wrong,With filial love their bosoms swellThey shall guard the sacred landmark well.ChorusHe casts his eyes to heaven's blue,From where past heroes hold the view,And swears pugnaciously the oath,You Rhine and I, stay German, both.ChorusWhile still remains one breath of life,While still one fist can draw a knife,One gun still fired with one hand,No foe will stand on this Rhine sand.ChorusIf my heart ne'er survives this stand,You'll never fall in foreign hand,Much, as your waters with no end,Have we our heroes' blood to spend.ChorusThe oath resounds, on rolls the wave,The banners fly high, proud, and brave,The Rhine, the Rhine, the German RhineWe all shall stand to hold the line!Italian Lyrics:Sopra l’Alpe d’Oulx, ai venti,sta l’Alpino in sentinella:come scroscio di torrenti,come rombo di procella,giunge un grido “ Al Reno, al Reno! „Fratel mio, tu veglia al Reno;io sull’Alpe itala sto.Russian Lyrics:Призыв — как громовой раскат,Как звон мечей и волн набат:«На Рейн, на Рейн, кто станет в стройНемецкий Рейн закрыть собой?» Refrain:Спокоен будь, край отчий наш:Спокоен будь, край отчий наш:Твёрд и надёжен страж, на Рейне страж!Твёрд и надёжен страж, на Рейне страж!Звучит присяга, плещет вал,Знамёна ветер полоскал:На Рейн, на Рейн, готов любойНемецкий Рейн закрыть собой!RefrainThis music was made using Logic Pro.

National Anthem of Japan – Lullaby Version Forte Republic 2024-07-28 | Good day! This is a lullaby instrumental of “Kimigayo,” the national anthem of Japan. Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/4vOLhhxFrWUyxjBCibfCC9?si=2MvYX4ZpQHSdGGCfl5SaKwDiscord: discord.com/invite/SGMHeZ7The lyrics are from a poem by an unknown writer in the Heian period (794-1185). A melody for the anthem was composed in 1869 by John William Fenton, an Irish musician who led a Japanese military band in the early Meiji period. Fenton’s melody was unpopular, and the current melody was chosen in 1880.“Kimigayo” served as the national anthem of the Japanese Empire from 1888 to 1945. During the allied occupation of Japan, there was no official anthem of Japan, but “Kimigayo” remained in use as there was no effort to restrict it. In 1999, “Kimigayo” became the official national anthem of Japan again with the passing of The “Act on National Flag and Anthem” (国旗及び国歌に関する法律), which also ratified the national flag of Japanese.Lyrics, translation, and transliteration:Lyrics:きみがよはちよにやちよにさざれいしのいわおとなりてこけのむすまでTransliteration:Kimigayo waChiyo ni yachiyo niSazare-ishi noIwao to nariteKoke no musu madeEnglish Translation:May your reignContinue for a thousand, eight thousand generations,Until the tiny pebblesGrow into massive bouldersLush with mossPoetic English Translation:Thousands of years of happy reign be thine;Rule on, my lord, until what are pebbles nowBy ages united to mighty rocks shall growWhose venerable sides the moss doth line.The music in this video was made using Logic Pro.

Yugoslav National Anthem — Sovietwave Version (Hej, Slaveni) Forte Republic 2024-06-16 | Hello! This is an electronic instrumental of “Hey Slavs,” the national anthem of Yugoslavia.Listen on Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/4otkgnEHLsdAt9QEw8rkM6?si=X58HeR9TSjO6RiOlxGK3kQ&nd=1&dlsi=e8ab398abd6f4dedApple Music: music.apple.com/us/album/anthemwave-electronic-anthems-and-marches-vol-1/1757810868Discord: discord.com/invite/SGMHeZ7Instagram: instagram.com/forterepublic“Hej Slaveni” (Hey, Slavs) is a pan-slavic anthem popular int he 19th and 20th centuries. Its lyrics originate from an 1834 poem by Slovak writer Samo Tomášik. It uses the tune of the current Polish national anthem, Dabrowski’s Mazurka (Mazurka Dabrowskiego), with some variations.As a pan-slavic anthem, “Hey, Slavs” became the national anthem of the First Slovak Republic, Yugoslavia, and Serbia and Montenegro. Before the Second World War, Yugoslavia was a monarchy, and the Yugoslav anthem at the time included mentions of the king. When Yugoslavia fell to the Axis powers, Josip Tito's anti-royalist resistance chose not to use the anthem of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, instead adopting “Hey, Slavs.” This song became the de facto national anthem of the provisional Democratic Federal Yugoslavia during its existence from 1943 to 1945. Following this period, it remained in use as the unofficial anthem of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFR Yugoslavia), as the kingdom’s anthem had been officially discarded and there was no official replacement for it. A 1977 law officially named “Hey, Slavs” a temporary state anthem until another piece was chosen, but no new anthem was ever adopted. After the break-up of SFR Yugoslavia, the new Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, consisting of Serbia and Montenegro, continued to use this anthem from 1992 until its dissolution in 2006 (FR Yugoslavia became the union state of Serbia and Montenegro in 2003, though it was still commonly called Yugoslavia).After the final dissolution of Yugoslavia, “Hey Slavs” has been mistakenly played at sporting events involving Serbian teams.The image in the video is of Yugoslav team at the 1980 Winter Olympics, flanked by the Soviet and American teams.Lyrics:Serbo-Croatian Lyrics (Latin):Hej Slaveni, jošte živiR[ij]eč (duh) naših d[j]edovaDok za narod srce bijeNjihovih sinovaŽivi, živi duh slavenskiŽivjet će v[j]ekov'ma𝄆 Zalud pr[ij]eti ponor paklaZalud vatra groma 𝄇Nek se sada i nad namaBurom sve razneseSt[j]ena puca, dub se lamaZemlja nek se treseMi stojimo postojanoKano klisurine𝄆 Proklet bio izdajicaSvoje domovine! 𝄇Serbo-Croation Lyrics (Cyrillic):Хеј Словени, јоште живиР[иј]еч (дух) наших д[ј]едоваДок за народ срце бијеЊихових синоваЖиви, живи дух словенскиЖивеће в[ј]еков'ма𝄆 Залуд пр[иј]ети понор пакла,Залуд ватра грома 𝄇Нек' се сада и над намаБуром све разнесеСт[ј]ена пуца, дуб се лама,Земља нек' се тресеМи стојимо постојаноКано клисурине,𝄆 Проклет био издајицаСвоје домовине! 𝄇English Translation:Hey, Slavs, there still livesthe word (spirit) of our grandfathersWhile for the nation beats the heartof its sons!There lives, there lives the Slavic spirit,It will live for ages!𝄆 In vain threatens the abyss of HellIn vain the fire of thunder! 𝄇Let now everything above usbe blown away by the bora.The stone cracks, the oak breaks,Let the earth quake!We stand firmlike the big cliffs,𝄆 May he be damned, the traitorof his homeland! 𝄇Slovene Lyrics:Hej Slovani, naša rečslovanska živo klijedokler naše verno srceza naš narod bijeŽivi, živi, duh slovanski,bodi živ na veke,𝄆 grom in peklo, prazne vašeproti nam so steke 𝄇Naj tedaj nad namistrašna burja se le znese,skala poka, dob se lomi,zemlja naj se streseBratje, mi stojimo trdnokakor zidi grada,𝄆 črna zemlja naj pogreznetega, kdor odpada!}} 𝄇Macedonian Lyrics:Еј, Словени, жив е туказборот свет на родотштом за народ срце чукапреку син во внукот!Жив е вечно, жив е духотсловенски во слога.𝄆 Не нѐ плашат адски бездниниту громов оган! 𝄇Пустошејќи, нека бураи над нас се втурне!Пука даб и карпа сура,тлото ќе се урне:Стоиме на стамен-прагот- клисури и бедем!𝄆 Проклет да е тој што предалРодина на врагот! 𝄇Macedonian Lyrics (Latin Transliteration):Ej, Sloveni, živ e tukazborot svet na rodotštom za narod srce čukapreku sin vo vnukot!Živ e večno, živ e duhotslovenski vo sloga.𝄆 Ne nè plašat adski bezdninitu gromov ogan! 𝄇Pustošejḱi, neka burai nad nas se vturne!Puka dab i karpa sura,tloto ḱe se urne:Stoime na stamen-pragot- klisuri i bedem!𝄆 Proklet da e toj što predalRodina na vragot! 𝄇English Translation:Hey, Slavs, herein lives onthe sacred word of our lineageas long as the heart beats for our nationfrom son to grandson!The Slavic spirit lives onforever in unity.𝄆 Infernal abysses do not frighten us,nor the blazes of thunder. 𝄇This music was made using Logic Pro.
Za císaře pána – Chill Electronic Version (For the Emperor!) Forte Republic 2024-05-25 | Hello!

It was written around the time of the Austro-Hungarian campaign in Ottoman Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1878. The campaign resulted in Austro-Hungarian rule over the province.

I hear the bugles sounding,'Tis the signal for the fight,Now, may God protect us, mother,As He ever does the right.Hear the "Battle-Cry of Freedom,"How it swells upon the air,Oh, yes, we'll rally 'round the standard,Or we'll perish nobly there.CHORUS:Farewell, mother, you may neverPress me to your heart again,But, oh, you'll not forget me, mother,If I'm numbered with the slain.The music in this video was made using Logic Pro.

The lyrics of the anthem are a poem titled "Defence of Fort McHenry," written by Francis Scott Key after the bombardment of Fort McHenry by the Royal Navy. The anthem uses the tune of the British song "To Anacreon in Heaven," composed by John Stafford Smith for the Anacreontic Society, a men's social club in London. "The Star-Spangled Banner" was adopted as the national anthem of the United States on March 3, 1931, under President Herbert Hoover. The anthem has four verses, though only the first verse is commonly sung.Lyrics:O! say can you see by the dawn's early light,What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?And the Rockets' red glare, the Bombs bursting in air,Gave proof through the night that our Flag was still there;O! say does that star-spangled Banner yet wave,O'er the Land of the free and the home of the brave?On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep,Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,In full glory reflected now shines on the stream,'Tis the star-spangled banner, O! long may it waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.And where is that band who so vauntingly sworeThat the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,A home and a country should leave us no more?Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.No refuge could save the hireling and slave,From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave,And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave,O'er the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand,Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation,Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the Heav'n rescued land,Praise the Power that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,And this be our motto—"In God is our Trust;"And the star-spangled Banner in triumph shall wave,O'er the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.Lyrics of "To Anacreon in Heaven"1To Anacreon in Heav'n, where he sat in full Glee,A few Sons of Harmony sent a Petition,That he their Inspirer and Patron would be;When this answer arriv'd from the Jolly Old Grecian"Voice, Fiddle, and Flute,"no longer be mute,"I'll lend you my Name and inspire you to boot,"And, besides I'll instruct you, like me, to intwine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."2The news through Olympus immediately flew;When Old Thunder pretended to give himself Airs."If these Mortals are suffer'd their Scheme to persue,"The Devil a Goddess will stay above Stairs."Hark! already they cry,"In transports of Joy,"Away to the Sons of Anacreon we'll fly,"And there, with good Fellows, we'll learn to intwine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine.3"The Yellow-Hair'd God and his nine fusty Maids,"From Helicon's banks will incontinent flee,"Idalia will boast but of tenantless Shades,"And the bi-forked Hill a mere Desart will be"My Thunder no fear on't,"Shall soon do it's Errand,"And dam'me! I'll swinge the Ringleaders, I warrant."I'll trim the young Dogs, for thus daring to twine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."4Apollo rose up, and said, "Pry'thee ne'er quarrel,"Good King of the Gods, with my Vot'ries below:"Your Thunder is useless"—then shewing his Laurel,Cry'd "Sic evitabile fulmen, you know!"Then over each head"My Laurels I'll spread;"So my Sons from your Crackers no Mischief shall dread,"Whilst snug in their Club-Room, they jovially twine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."5Next Momus got up with his risible Phiz,And swore with Apollo he'd chearfully join—"The full Tide of Harmony still shall be his,"But the Song, and the Catch, and the Laugh shall be mine."Then, Jove, be not jealous"Of these honest fellows."Cry'd Jove, "We relent, since the Truth you now tell us;"And swear by Old Styx, that they long shall intwine"The Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine."6Ye Sons of Anacreon, then join Hand in Hand;Preserve Unanimity, Friendship, and Love!'Tis your's to support what's so happily plann'd;You've the sanction of Gods, and the Fiat of Jove.While thus we agree,Our Toast let it be.May our Club flourish happy, united, and free!And long may the Sons of Anacreon intwineThe Myrtle of Venus with Bacchus's Vine.This music was made using Logic Pro.

Its tune, originally called "Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser," was composed by Joseph Haydn in 1797 as a personal hymn for Francis II, who was the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and later the emperor of Austria. After the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire, the Austrian Empire adopted the tune as its national anthem, changing the words from "Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser" to "Gott erhalte, Gott Beschütze." Austro-Hungarian Empire used the tune as its national anthem until its dissolution in 1918.The lyrics to the German national anthem were written by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben in 1841, prior to German unification. The first verse includes the words "Deutschland über alles in der welt," meaning "Germany, above all in the world." These words were intended to be a call to prioritize a united Germany over the sovereignty of the small German states. The geographical boundaries of Germany included in the first verse do not fall within modern Germany but were within the German Confederation when the lyrics were written. However, due to Germany's history in the first half of the twentieth century, the first verse is often criticized for having an imperialistic tone. Hoffmann von Fallersleben also intended for the lyrics to be used as a drinking song, and the second verse includes mentions of German women, wine, and music. Only the third verse, which calls for unity, justice, and freedom, has been used in Germany since the end of the Second World War.The English hymn "Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken" is sung to the tune of Deutschlandlied, as is the alma mater of Columbia University, "Stand Columbia."The image in the video is a photograph of crowds at the Reichstag building on October 3, 1990.Lyrics:Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,Über alles in der Welt,Wenn es stets zu Schutz und TrutzeBrüderlich zusammenhält;Von der Maas bis an die Memel,Von der Etsch bis an den Belt:Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,Über alles in der Welt!Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,Deutscher Wein und deutscher SangSollen in der Welt behaltenIhren alten schönen Klang,Uns zu edler Tat begeisternUnser ganzes Leben lang:Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang!Einigkeit und Recht und FreiheitFür das deutsche Vaterland!Danach lasst uns alle strebenBrüderlich mit Herz und Hand!Einigkeit und Recht und FreiheitSind des Glückes Unterpfand;Blüh im Glanze dieses Glückes,Blühe, deutsches Vaterland!Original lyrics:Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser, Unsern guten Kaiser Franz!Lange lebe Franz der Kaiser, In des Glückes hellstem Glanz!Ihm erblühen Lorbeerreiser, Wo er geht, zum Ehrenkranz!Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser, Unsern guten Kaiser Franz!Later Austrian lyrics:Gott erhalte, Gott beschützeunsern Kaiser, unser Land!Mächtig durch des Glaubens Stützeführ' Er uns mit weiser Hand!Lasst uns Seiner Väter Kroneschirmen wider jeden Feind;Innig bleibt mit Habsburgs ThroneÖsterreichs Geschick vereint.

Its lyrics were written as a poem by Max Schneckenburger during the Rhine Crisis of 1840, which stoked fears of French expansionism. The musical setting to the poem was composed by Karl Wilhelm in 1854. Though the song calls for the defense of the Rhine, the fighting in the aforementioned wars that followed took place instead in France, to the west of the Rhine."Die Wacht Am Rhein" has been adapted for use as an alma mater for several institutions, most notably "Bright College Years," the alma mater of Yale University since 1881. During the Great War, the use of a German tune was questioned, and the Yale College Council proposed a ban on the song. Most alumni clubs voted in favor of keeping it, and it has since remained as the university's alma mater. The image shown in the video is a painting of the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress.Lyrics of both the original song and the Yale University alma mater are provided below.LyricsEs braust ein Ruf wie Donnerhall,wie Schwertgeklirr und Wogenprall:Zum Rhein, zum Rhein, zum deutschen Rhein,wer will des Stromes Hüter sein?Refrain:Lieb Vaterland, magst ruhig sein,lieb Vaterland, magst ruhig sein,Fest steht und treu die Wacht, die Wacht am Rhein!Fest steht und treu die Wacht, die Wacht am Rhein!Durch Hunderttausend zuckt es schnell,und aller Augen blitzen hell;der Deutsche, bieder, fromm und stark,beschützt die heil'ge Landesmark.RefrainEr blickt hinauf in Himmelsau'n,wo Heldenväter niederschau'n,und schwört mit stolzer Kampfeslust:Du Rhein bleibst deutsch wie meine Brust!RefrainSolang ein Tropfen Blut noch glüht,noch eine Faust den Degen zieht,und noch ein Arm die Büchse spannt,betritt kein Feind hier deinen Strand!Refrain Und ob mein Herz im Tode bricht,wirst du doch drum ein Welscher nicht.Reich, wie an Wasser deine Flut,ist Deutschland ja an Heldenblut!RefrainDer Schwur erschallt, die Woge rinntdie Fahnen flattern hoch im Wind:Am Rhein, am Rhein, am deutschen Rheinwir alle wollen Hüter sein.RefrainYale Alma MaterBright College years, with pleasure rife,The shortest, gladdest years of life;How swiftly are ye gliding by!Oh, why doth time so quickly fly?The seasons come, the seasons go,The earth is green or white with snow,But time and change shall naught availTo break the friendships formed at Yale.In after years, should troubles riseTo cloud the blue of sunny skies,How bright will seem, through mem’ry’s hazeThose happy, golden, bygone days!Oh, let us strive that ever weMay let these words our watch-cry be,Where’er upon life’s sea we sail:“For God, for Country and for Yale!”English Lyrics:The cry resounds like thunder's peal,Like crashing waves and clang of steel:The Rhine, the Rhine, our German Rhine,Who will defend our stream, divine?Chorus:Dear fatherland, no fear be thine,Dear fatherland, no fear be thine,Firm stands the Watch along, along the Rhine!Firm stands the Watch along, along the Rhine!They stand, a hundred thousand strong,Quick to avenge their country's wrong,With filial love their bosoms swellThey shall guard the sacred landmark well.ChorusHe casts his eyes to heaven's blue,From where past heroes hold the view,And swears pugnaciously the oath,You Rhine and I, stay German, both.ChorusWhile still remains one breath of life,While still one fist can draw a knife,One gun still fired with one hand,No foe will stand on this Rhine sand.ChorusIf my heart ne'er survives this stand,You'll never fall in foreign hand,Much, as your waters with no end,Have we our heroes' blood to spend.ChorusThe oath resounds, on rolls the wave,The banners fly high, proud, and brave,The Rhine, the Rhine, the German RhineWe all shall stand to hold the line!Italian Lyrics:Sopra l’Alpe d’Oulx, ai venti,sta l’Alpino in sentinella:come scroscio di torrenti,come rombo di procella,giunge un grido “ Al Reno, al Reno! „Fratel mio, tu veglia al Reno;io sull’Alpe itala sto.Russian Lyrics:Призыв — как громовой раскат,Как звон мечей и волн набат:«На Рейн, на Рейн, кто станет в стройНемецкий Рейн закрыть собой?» Refrain:Спокоен будь, край отчий наш:Спокоен будь, край отчий наш:Твёрд и надёжен страж, на Рейне страж!Твёрд и надёжен страж, на Рейне страж!Звучит присяга, плещет вал,Знамёна ветер полоскал:На Рейн, на Рейн, готов любойНемецкий Рейн закрыть собой!RefrainThis music was made using Logic Pro.

The text for the anthem was adapted from a 1924 speech by Sun Yat-sen, who was the first head of state of the Republic of China. The Kuomintang party held a contest for the accompanying music, and Cheng Maoyun's composition was chosen for the national anthem.The "Three Principles of the People" was adopted in 1930 as the national anthem of China (then the Republic of China). Following its defeat by the Chinese Communist Party in the Chinese Civil War in 1949, the government of the Republic of China was relegated to the Island of Taiwan, where "San Min Chu-i" remains the national anthem. The war ended with Communist control of mainland China, and the ROC anthem was replaced by the "March of the Volunteers" in Mainland China.Lyrics and Transliterations:Lyrics:三民主義，吾黨所宗，以建民國，以進大同，咨爾多士，為民前鋒，夙夜匪懈，主義是從，矢勤矢勇，必信必忠，一心一德，貫徹始終。Transliteration:San-min-chu-i, Wu-tang so tsung;i-chien min-kuo, i-chin ta-t'ung.Tzu erh to-shih, wei min ch'ien-feng;su-yeh fei-hsieh, chu-i shih ts'ung.Shih ch'in shih yung, pi hsin pi chung;i-hsin i-te, kuan-ch'e shih-chung.Literal English Translation:Three people's principlesThe foundation of our party.Using this, we establish the Republic;Using this, we advance into a state of total peace.Oh, you, righteous men,For the people, be the vanguard.Without resting day or night,Follow the Principles.Swear to be diligent; swear to be courageous.Obliged to be trustworthy; obliged to be loyal.With one heart and one virtue,We carry through until the very end...Official English Version (Poetic Translation):San Min Chu-iOur aim shall be:To found a free land,World peace, be our stand.Lead on, comrades,Vanguards ye are.Hold fast your aim,By sun and star.Be earnest and brave,Your country to save,One heart, one soul,One mind, one goal...Korean Transcription:삼민주의, 오당소종,이건민국, 이진대동,자이다사, 위민전봉,숙야비해, 주의시종,시근시용, 필신필충,일심일덕, 관철시종!Japanese Transcription:さんびんしゅぎ, ごとうしょしゅういけんびんこく, いしんだいどうしじたし, いびんぜんほうしゅくやひけ, しゅぎぜじゅうしきんしゆう, ひっしんひっちゅういっしんいっとく, かんてっししゅうVietnamese Transcription:Tam Dân Chủ nghĩa, ngô đảng sở tông;Dĩ kiến Dân Quốc, dĩ tiến đại đồng.Tư nhĩ đa sĩ, vì dân tiền phong;Túc dạ phỉ giải, Chủ nghĩa thị tòng.Thỉ cần thỉ dũng, tất tín tất trung;Nhất tâm nhất đức, quán triệt thủy chung.The music in this video was made using Logic Pro.

Yet praying,When the cruel war is over,Praying that we meet again!II.When the summer breeze is sighingMournfully along;Or when autumn leaves are falling,Sadly breathes the song.Oft in dreams I see thee lyingOn the battle plain,Lonely, wounded, even dying,Calling, but in vain.(Chorus)III.If amid the din of battleNobly you should fall,Far away from those who love you,None to hear you callWho would whisper words of comfort,Who would soothe your pain?Ah! the many cruel fanciesEver in my brain.(Chorus)IV.But our country called you, darling,Angels cheer your way;While our nation's sons are fighting,We can only pray.Nobly strike for God and liberty,Let all nations seeHow we love the starry banner,Emblem of the free.(Chorus)The music in this video was made using Logic Pro.
