Its swedish national anthem time, the best thing to sing before batting down the hatches


Du gamla, Du fria, Du fjällhöga Nord,
du tysta, du glädjerika sköna!
Jag hälsar dig vänaste land uppå jord
din sol, din himmel, dina ängder gröna!
Din sol, din himmel, dina ängder gröna!

Du tronar på minnen från fornstora dar,
då ärat ditt namn flög över jorden.
Jag vet, att du är och du blir, vad du var.
Ja, jag vill leva, jag vill dö i Norden,
Ja, jag vill leva, jag vill dö i Norden.



O glorious mountain crown'd land of the North,
thou quiet thou joyous land, I love thee,
I hail thee as fairest of lands on this earth;
Thy meadows green, the sun in heav'n above thee,
Thy meadows green, the sun in heav'n above thee.

Thy throne is the mem'ry of great days of yore,
when all through the world thy name was carried,
thou art this, I know, the same as of old.
In thee I'll live, in thee I'll die, thou North Land,
In thee I'll live, in thee I'll die, thou North Land.

The spirit of Massachusetts is the spirit of America,
The spirit of what's old and what's new,
The spirit of Massachusetts is the spirit of America,
The spirit of the red, white and blue!

It's like the first letters say some name or something.

A national anthem subliminally saying YOU LOST THE GAME would be pretty sweet

Yes, the name being "William of Orange" (its Dutch equivalent).

Way down upon de Swanee Ribber,
Far, far away,
Dere's wha my heart is turning ebber,
Dere's wha de old folks stay.
All up and down de whole creation
Sadly I roam,
Still longing for de old plantation,
And for de old folks at home.

All de world am sad and dreary,
Eb-rywhere I roam;
Oh, darkeys, how my heart grows weary,
Far from de old folks at home!

All round de little farm I wandered
When I was young,
Den many happy days I squandered,
Many de songs I sung.
When I was playing wid my brudder
Happy was I;
Oh, take me to my kind old mudder!
Dere let me live and die.

One little hut among de bushes,
One dat I love
Still sadly to my memory rushes,
No matter where I rove.
When will I see de bees a-humming
All round de comb?
When will I hear de banjo strumming,
Down in my good old home?

William of Nassau, scion
Of an old Germanic line,
I dedicate undying
Faith to this land of mine.
A prince Of Orange,
I am, undaunted ever free,
To the king of Spain I've granted
A lifelong loyalty.

OMFG SUMBLIMINAL YOU LOST THE GAME.
