Little brother, placing its trust in you,
this country is waiting,
for you to study and get educated,
to protect the honor of our land.
Little brother, placing its trust in you,
this country is waiting.
Chorus: Little brother, placing its trust in you,
this country is waiting,
for you to study and get educated,
to protect the honor of our land.
Chorus: For you to study and get educated,
to protect the honor of our land.
Aren't you the kings who will rule this country?
Chorus: Aren't you the kings who will rule this country?
Male: Roses that will never fade on any day!
Chorus: Roses that will never fade on any day!
Male: We are all one people, one single family,
there is neither caste nor division here.
The stream that gushes and flows everywhere
is the dress worn by Mother Earth.
The garden where colorful flowers bloom with joy,
is the street where the gentle breeze rides its chariot.
Declare that everything here belongs to everyone!
Look, even if one is poor, the gentle breeze still caresses them.
Everything here was gifted by God,
isn't it a sin to divide it up?
Go tell this truth to the whole town, my boy!
Little brother, placing its trust in you,
this country is waiting,
for you to study and get educated,
to protect the honor of our land.
Aren't you the kings who will rule this country?
Roses that will never fade on any day!
These deer live with self-respect and grace,
you too must live with dignity like them.
Just like a lion, tomorrow you too
will need a brave heart that charges forward.
Though an elephant's strength
lies in its trunk,
a poor person's strength every single day
is born out of faith and hope.
Times can change tomorrow,
what you set your eyes on can reach your hands,
and whatever you touch can turn to gold!
Little brother, placing its trust in you,
this country is waiting,
for you to study and get educated,
to protect the honor of our land.
Aren't you the kings who will rule this country?
Roses that will never fade on any day!
