Risen from the depths of the oceans Fortified by the mountains Adorned in lush green robes Alone thou art in solemn grace. The outskirts of a Yangkok Your appearance is a winning face The first rays of the sun, A mother so caring for her children Wrapped in an eternal smile. A land of golden waves A land of silver orbs, Under the blue sky Like a jewel, you shine.
