Sink and scatter clouds of war!
Sun of peace shine full and far!
Why should nations slay and spoil,
With hearts to love and hands to toil?
Wherefore turn to mutual ill,
God-given strength and skill?
Blest the prince whose people's choice,
Bids the land in peace rejoice.
Blest the land whose prince is wise,
Peaceful progress to devise.
Why should nations slay and spoil,
With hearts to love and hands to toil?
Closed the brazen gates of Mars,
Peace her golden gates unbars.
Let the nations hear her call,
Enter, welcome, one and all!
