The March of Equals

Right, Right, Right:
The equal is always right.
The truth of brotherhood and happiness
Is the rules of the equality!

A single mind,
A single size,
Just one standard,
And just one pattern.

Everywhere and in all things
Our line is straight.
We are all the same–
A single troop.

Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!
Gallant mass!
My equal friend is right;
Unequal is my enemy.

Was unequal?
Make him equal!
Became unequal?
He must be killed!

A single mind,
A single size,
Just one standard,
And just one pattern.

We will destroy the ancient world,
We will uproot the difference.
We will create a fine new world:
The way to equality and happiness!

Our Leader the Sun will show us the way
To great and brilliant bliss.
No one will kill us or bend us to day-
Down with the monster of difference!

Was unequal?
Make him equal!
Became unequal?
He must be killed.

Hurray, hurray, hurray!
The time of paradise is here!
I am like him,
And he is like me!

Freedom of activity
Must be perceived in necessity,
And happiness of equality
In the Law of Supreme Justice.

A single mind,
A single size,
Just one standard,
And just one pattern.

Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!
Gallant mass!
My equal friend is right,
Unequal is my enemy.

We have no fear of anyone,
We’ll kill whoever resists us.
And if we have to, we will die
All as one to fght for this.

Our banner is painted in blood.
Blood is our right.
Righteous is our cause
To make beauty red.

Right, Right, Right:
The equal is always right.
The truth of brotherhood and happiness
Is the rules of the equality!

Hurray, Hurray, Hurray!
The time of paradise is here.
I am like him,
And he is like me!

A single mind,
A single size.
Just one standard,
And jgust one pattern
