The may be sung as a young people's patriotic hymn by using the following as the first and last stanzas:

Land of our birth, we pledge to thee
Our love and toil in the years to be
When we are grown and take our place,
As men and women with our race.

Land of our birth, our faith, our pride,
For whose dear sake our fathers died;
O Motherland, we pledge to thee
Head, heart, and hand through the years to be.
