Unofficial English version

An English version was written by Linish poet Samuel Desmartes in 1935, but was not adopted because of the government's fear that its inflammatory lyrics would trigger an international incident with the Republic of Namor and Nevanmaa. It has remained somewhat popular in modern times.

The line "All arms against the Nevans; the traitors and the Namormen" has sometimes been rendered as "all arms against the aliens; the traitors and the noblemen" to avoid the controversy around the alleged ethnic nationalism in the verse.

From Dawn to Eternity
Lyrics
Arise, citizen!
Hear the great pains of our
Great heroes, the Republicans,
To Arms, Aininians!
Ever fighting onwards,
From Dawn, to Eternity,
To build our sovereign dream!
All arms against the Nevans,
the traitors and the Namormen,
with their soldiers, their cruel hacks.
Our men and our regiments,
Shall make them yell great laments!
Assemble and march on,
until we win the day!
Assemble and march on,
until we win the day!
