'''Awaken thee, Achysian!''', also known as '''Life in liberty, or death''', is the national anthem of Achysia. It was composed during the 1821 Revolution, as a revolutionary song, and was adopted as the anthem of the First Thracian Republic, before being abandoned after the first restauration of the monarchy. As a symbol of democracy, the song was adopted again as Achysia's national anthem by the National Council of Transition, and then by the Second Thracian Republic, having grown increasingly popular ever since it was sung on the streets during the events of the 1944 Revolution. The song's popularity led to it retaining its status as a national anthem, being officially adopted by the restored Empire of Achysia in 1955.

Cup of Eternal Silver,
Underneath the aegis of heaven,
All of civilization will cease to toil,
United in happiness and mirth.
As long as the Yin rules,
Our empire is emblazoned by light,
And our boundaries are vast and preserved.
The sky stretches infinitely,
The sea brims with turbulence.

Ten thousand nations celebrate the Imperial throne's prosperity
The fortune star climbs over the iridescent clouds of five colors
The crystal blue ocean glitters under spring's sunshine
Tributaries bow to the Emperor like flowers centering a phoenix
