248. Anthem

No man, no madness 

Though their sad power may prevail.

Can possess, conquer, my country's heart They rise to fail.

She is eternal long before nations' lines were drawn 

When no flags flew, when no armies stood 

My land was born.

 

And you ask me why i love her 

Through wars, death and despear.

She is the constant, we who don't care 

And you wonder will i leave her, but how?

 

I cross over borders but i'm still there now.

How can i leave her? Where would i start?

Let man's petty nations tear themselves apart

My land's only borders lie around my heart.
