More patriotism

Here are some more patriotic songs, for a couple of other countries which are either Anglophone or have Verdurian connections. Bonus points for recognising each one without peeking at the transliteration, which sometimes contains the name of the country :-).

I didn't translate all verses, just the ones that appear to be the best known or most sung, if I could determine that from a quick web search. Completions are welcome :)


"Adh rhanere soa elrea"

Adh rhanere zhurä elrea taë
Lengece elirece medra elrei taë
Adh rhanere soa elrea
Ilan voyire venceam
Lérezhan er brac
Lengece tam nazhane
Adh rhanere soa elrea

Mudhe dobrem donuli lë
Sur ilat leureceo.
Ut nazhcele lengece!
Ut cumbrigcele amrabi taë
er ut tan doncele fsëgdá prokio
shantan ab humán er vuán
"Adh rhanere soa elrea!"

"Anát er rafát er rhisát"

Anát er rafát er rhisát
And soan tüsclanisen pironáen!
And eton razhenirum tësî
Baradhuisece ab humán er manon!
Anát er rafát er rhisát
eu so polfond lérezhanei.
Frälire im soán bracán ci-lérezhanei,
Frälire, tüsclanisë pironáe!

"Le bome, le rhis"

Le bome, le rhis, le parnise nan,
Le tihy, le zul er beluan!
Erh emayao, so mudhe eyure pázhian sur almean,
Ënomaa lë, syel lë, verdem lutulem lë,
Ënomaa lë, syel lë, verdem lutulem lë.

"Canada!"

Canada! Zhes er scuri taë!
Shesei tenec luzhura sada er scurasfolzhisa tësein medhin lë.
Ab lerezhen humán erh lelam lialan,
So sade nan, zol er rhis!
De retán er de fsudan,
Canada, am voleme erh cumbrigan.
Ut Adh rhancele scura taë bracsä er rhisa!
Canada, am voleme erh cumbrigan.
Canada, am voleme erh cumbrigan.

              iy

Canada! Pázhian predavoë taë,
Suryi lë e cistilul ab bracsen zhorten!
Prokena brak lë epe clasmir soa cardhä,
Epe nasitan so rhek!
Pleschura lë e rocá soië mudhe monyië rocurië.
Er rhavica lë, immeyula im lelesan,
Akezhme zhesi taë er droem taë.
Akezhme zhesi taë er droem taë.

"Adh, cumbriganei Nyuzilan"

Adh nazhie, ne nazhen lë
Im lëcin veadhe onrëcem.
Slushireu vuém taë, presum.
Adh, cumbriganei rhisa scura taë.
Hezhanei tvesä curulä Pasificei
Ak soen strelin malanátei er belgei,
Shesane slushir egléri liue fsyan fsuda,
Adh, cumbriganei Nyuzilan.

"Fasadireu, Ostréylia rezhnë"

Ostréylî tësî zazulenam,
Prokena am suletî er rhisî.
Tenom orhsem sus er opon pro rhezán,
Zhes taë ilet imbrese zëi.
Pázhian taë gime cum donulin prirode
Belue bogatye er macretëi.
Im cëmuran pleschure, ut shi-nivo
Fasadcele Ostréyliam rezhnä!
Ab zulin shantin vremya shantanam,
"Fasadireu, Ostréylia rezhnë!"

Hip iluven erisen rhekan taë
Rhezmam ab humin er manoin
Pro shesan oteran ci-pázhian taë
Fsyan im tësein pázhianin
And kaën zhannu tra soen zëin
Tenom samrhayem etaldi and intoran.
Cum rhavican cumlädanam tësî
Pro shesan fasadir Ostréylian rezhnen.
Ab zulin shantin vremya shantanam,
"Fasadireu, Ostréylia rezhnë!"

Cheers,
Philip
