I Vow To Thee, My Country
发家国之誓言
i vow to thee, my country
凭普世之万物
all earthly things above
禀尽瘁之贞义
entire and whole and perfect
吾爱得以奉献
the service of my love
此志无悔无怨
the love that asks no questions
此意不惧考验
the love that stands the test
悉以陈列圣坛
that lays upon the alter
尽其至亲至善
the dearst and the best
此情坚如山岩
the love that never falters
此爱不吝血汗
the love that pays the price
至乎死而后已
the love that makes undaunted
固此心之所愿
the final sacrifice
有彼巍巍远国
吾辈久已有闻
and there's another country
慕者奉如至亲
i've heard of long ago
知者识其至伟
most dear to them that love her
守土不以士众
most great to them i know
亦复难谒其君
we may not count her armies
雄垒铸于坚心
we may not see her king
牺牲成其荣耀
her fortress is a faithful heart
her pride is suffering
国祚稳因忠魂
and soul by soul and silently
her shining bounds increase
道合谦恕之准
and her ways are ways of gentleness
and all her paths are peace
