Anthem Lyrics
Around our flag we stand united, With one wish and one goal, A sacred oath we bestow upon it Proclaiming loyalty for our salvation. Only he who is a born traitor Averts from the struggle. He who is brave is not daunted, But falls - a martyr to the cause. With arms in hand we defend the flag, Our most precious treasure. Only our enemy's blood Can dye this sacred symbol. From this day onward every Albanian Must make this sacred oath: To live and to die for the flag, As it is our most sacred law.
Rreth flamurit të përbashkuar Me një dëshirë dhe një qëllim, Të gjithë atij duke iu betuar Të lidhim besën për shpëtim. Prej lufte veç ay largohet Që është lindur tradhëtor, Kush është burrë nuk frikësohet, Po vdes, po vdes si një dëshmor! Me dorë në zemër betohemi, Se flamurin do ta mbrojmë, Vetëm gjaku i armikut Mund ta njollosë këtë shenjë. Prej sot e tutje çdo shqiptar Duhet të bëjë këtë betim të shenjtë: Të jetojë dhe të vdesë për flamurin, Se është ligji ynë më i shenjtë.
