This is my Country
The land of my birth
Where freedom flies its flag
And fortune blessed the Earth
This is my Country
Where freedoms' bell is heard
Still ringing silver notes
And freedom is the word
Is it wrong to protect her
And rally to the Flag
Is it wrong to defend her
Not to do so, is so sad
Is it wrong to salute her
Honour history and her ways
Oh no this is my Country
Home of the free and the brave
This is my Country
Where heroes have their graves
That's where their honour's paid
For those who gave and gave
This is my Country
My Country right or wrong
I gave my pledge of loyalty
In life and in song
This is my Country
This is my Country
This is my Country
Right or wrong
This is my Country
Land that I love
This is my Country
Sent by God above
