Our birthplace,

Where we all arise to stand guard

Over this our Motherland:

Our people and our country.

Come then, let us all exclaim

Indonesia united.

Long live our land,

Long live our state,

Our nation, our people, and all

Arise then, its spirit,

Arise, its bodies

For Great Indonesia.

May her soil be fertile

And spirited her soul,

The nation and all the people.

Conscious be her heart

And her mind

For Indonesia the Great.

Our victorious country:

There we stand

Guarding our true Mother.

A country we love with all our heart,

Let's make a vow

That Indonesia be there forever.

Blessed be her people

And her sons,

All her islands, and her seas.

Fast be the country's progress

And the progress of her youth

For Indonesia the Great.

CHORU.

Just being honest ... as always. It doesn't hurt either. Try it you might like it.

And remember what I told you: If you think you can change the world, you are bound to a life of miserable frustration and disappointment. The condition of corporeal humanness has it’s own body of nature that in general is unchangeable. All action directed toward this goal is futile. The world will not change. There will be corruption, brutality, and destructive influences, and those who oppose these influences as long as humanity experiences a timely existence.

Absent morality or at least a life founded upon principle, no action is logically preferable to any other. In lieu of that one may certainly map out a life time of endeavor. Generally these people lean toward some sort of self love which includes the denial of any higher good than to satiate one craving or another.

A life based on morality or at least a life founded upon principle suggests activity along a different path, one paved with respect, willingness to care for the well being of others, and humility with regard to higher goodness.
