Let us kill off our youth
For the sake of truth
We who are old know what truth is
Truth is a bundle of vicious lies
tied together and sterilized-

A war makers bait for unwise youth
To kill off each other
For the sake of
Truth

KOMMENTTI SODASTA

Tappakaamme nuorisomme
eestä kalliin totuutemme
Me vanhat tiedämme mikä totuus on
Totuus on kasa surkeita valheita
kimppuun pantuina ja sterioloituina

Sodanlietsojan täky sinisilmäisille nuorille:
Toisianne tappakaa
vapautta
puolustakaa
