Oh remember the proud Hellenic civilisation The cradle of Europe where it all began Or the Portuguese and Spanish Armada Overwhelming Thy power, a tribute to the south
Bruges, Antwerp, Ghent forever in my hearts Representing medieval Flemish pride Brave Teutonic, French and English knights Thy shining armour now long vanished Thy glory, however, forever remains Praised be the Scandinavian hordes Once the nightmare of the Christian world
I talk not of mercy I talk not of fear The hopeless warriors of a Willing Doom
Children of Italia In ancient times “Roma Caput Mundi” De Verenigde Nederlanden, parel van het noorden Belgium and The Netherlands stood as one
Mother Europe born from your womb Mother Europe on Your soil shall be my tomb
I talk not of mercy I talk not of fear The hopeless warriors of a Willing Doom Oh what that gallant spirit shall resume Leap from Europe’s bank and call Thee from the tomb
(Hail to the sons of eastern Europe the Slavonian soul never fades) Blessed are Scotland, Ireland and Bretagne Where the Celtic dream still lives on
Shall be my tomb!
ARIS Hear me, ancient forefather (Ambiorix) Honoured be Thy deeds Leading our tribes against the aggressor Outnumbered, a campaign that could not be won (But forever Thy blood in my veins)
Gracious Spartan civilisation Eternally blessed Thy war spirit Surrounded by thousands of Persians “Molon lave” a final proud statement (None of thee survived but Thy Hellenic glory is everlasting)
Noble was your cause, brave Vercingetorix Sad the day of your sacrifice An example to your Celt tribe Dying in solitude (But Thy soul) forever in my heart
Remember the moment Jerusalem fell The shrieks of the conquered, the conqueror’s yell The roofs that we fired, and the plunder we shared The wealty we slaughtered, the lovely we spared
Aris! And Aris hone! Mars! And Mars rose!
Geuzen der Lage Landen Van Antwerpen, Amsterdam to Den Briel Helden der Calvanistische droom Nachtmerrie der Spaanse/Roomse overheerser Voor eeuwig Uw Bloed in onze aderen Noble was your cause, brave Vercingetorix Sad the day of your sacrifice
Hear me, ancient forefather (Ambiorix) Honoured be Thy deeds Leading our tribes against the aggressor Outnumbered, a campaign that could not be won Forever Thy Blood in my veins Noble was your cause Sad the day of your sacrifice An example to our tribe
