National Anthem

[statusperfect]

How about having a national anthem? Any ideas?

[Jon Shafer]

"Lux Invicta we giveth our allegiance, monetary dividends and first-born sons to thee!!!"

Errr... a bit dry, I admit...

[Apocalypse]

Fly me to the moon,
And let me play among the stars.
Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars.
In other words, hold my hand!
In other words, darling, kiss me.

Fill my heart with song,
and let me sing forever more.
You are all I long for, all I worship and adore.
In other words, please be true!
In other words, I love you!

[Apocalypse]

When I think about it, this song might be better....

Oi, Suomi, katso, sinun päiväs' koittaa
Yön uhka karkoitettu on jo pois
Ja aamun kiuru kirkkaudessa soittaa
Kuin itse taivahan kansi sois'
Yön vallat aamun valkeus jo voittaa
Sun päiväs' koittaa, oi synnyinmaa

Oi, nouse, Suomi, nosta korkealle
Pääs' seppelöimä suurten muistojen
Oi, nouse, Suomi, näytit maailmalle
Sa että karkoitit orjuuden
Ja ettet taipunut sa sorron alle
On aamus' alkanut, synnyinmaa

National anthem:

Za un kokuna tenshi no yoni
Shonen muyo shi u ani nare~

Its only fitting.

EDIT: full lyric = I figured its "shinwa" (legend or more closely new, shin and wa, chapter) but whenever I hear it I hear "Shinu, ani"(gibberish) oh well sometimes i dont even get english lyric right.

Zankoku na tenshi no youni
shounen yo shinwa ni nare

aoi kaze ga ima,
mune no doa wo tataite mo,
watashi dake wo tada mitsumete
hohoendeiru anata.

sotto hureru mono,
motomeru koto ni muchuu de,
ummei sae mada shiranai,
itaikena hitomi.

dakedo itsuka kizuku deshou.
sono senaka niwaa,
haruka mirai mezasu tame no
hane ga aru koto,

* Zankoku na tenshi no te-ze,
madobe kara yagate tabidatsu
hotobashiru atsui patosu de,
omoide wo uragiru nara,
kono sora wo daite kagayaku,
shounen yo shinwa ni nare.

zutto nemutteiru
watashi no ai no yurikago.
anata dake ga yume no shisha ni
yobareru asa ga kuru.

aoi kubisuji wo
tsukiakari ga utsu****eiru.
sekaijuu no toki wo tomete
tojikometaikeredo,

moshimo, futari aeta kotoni,
imiga arunara,
watashi wa sou,
jiyuu ni shiru tameno baiburu.

Zankoku na tenshi no te-ze,
kanashimi ga sosite hajimaru.
dakishimeta inochi no katachi,
sono yume ni mezameta toki,
dareyorimo hikariwo hanatsu,
shounen yo shinwa ni nare.

Hito wa ai wo tsumugi nagara,
rekishi wo tsukuru.
megami nante inai mama,
watashi wa ikiru.

You don't have much else to do, really?

[statusperfect]

we are the dawn
of the new world order
peace through power
within the borders
of Lux Invicta

we share the same
sacred blood
eternal life
and brotherhood
of Lux Invicta

Now I actually sat around for couple of hours trying to translate it. THAT is having nothing else much to do.

One Winged Angel, from FFVII. Best I could think of. (Actually, Liberi Fatali from FFVIII, with some revisions, could also work.)

I think eva opening is quite fitting... Our team is very "evangelion-ized" it talks about young boy rising up to become a legend or something like that.

So I took my Japanese Dicitonary to translate most of the words I didnt learn in class but I just gave up and found a translation online:

Like a cruel angel,
young boy, become the legend!

A blue wind is now
knocking at the door to your heart, and yet
you are merely gazing at me
and smiling.

Something gently touching--
you're so intent on seeking it out,
that you can't even see your fate yet,
with such innocent eyes.

But someday I think you'll find out
that what's on your back
are wings that are for
heading for the far-off future.

The cruel angel's thesis
will soon take flight through the window,
with surging, hot pathos, [3]
if you betray your memories.
Embracing this sky [universe] and shining, [4]
young boy, become the legend!

Sleeping for a long time
in the cradle of my love
The morning is coming when you alone will be called
by a messenger of dreams

Moonlight reflects off
the nape of your slender neck.
Stopping time all throughout the world
I want to confine them, but...

So if two people being brought together by fate
has any meaning, [6]
I think that it is a "bible"
for learning freedom. [7]

The cruel angel's thesis.
The sorrow then begins.
You held tight to the form of life
when you woke up from that dream.
You shine brighter than anyone else.
Young boy, become the legend!

People create history
while weaving love.
Even knowing I'll never be a goddess or anything like that,
I live on.

The cruel angel's thesis
will soon take flight through the window,
with surging, hot pathos,
if you betray your memories.
Embracing this sky and shining,
young boy, become the legend
