Take off the LOCKS, dismiss the guard —
Do not be surprised if a thief loots the goods,
Grabs you by the collar and throws you from the house,
Bribes the judge — and they will blame you.

When the household is ready for destitution,
To go begging and pleading in foreign lands —
Then the spilling of blood is out of place,
The nation hasn’t grown up — it still needs nursing.

If it does not suit you,
Mobilization,
Then everything is refuted by
Capitulation.
But if they want to keep the country,
They will find among themselves
Fighters to the death.
