Preamble [first national anthem of Micronesia] lyrics
We people of Micronesia
Exercise sov'reignty.
Establish our Constitution
Of Federated States.
Affirm our common wish to live
In peace and harmony.
To preserve heritage of past
And promise of future.
CHORUS:
Make one nation of many isles,
Diversity of our cultures.
Our diff'rences Will enrich us,
Waters bring us All together.
They don't sep'rate.
They sustain us.
Our Islands Our nation
Get larger And make us stronger
And make us much stronger.
Second verse:
Our Ancestors made their homes here,
Displaced no other man,
We who remain wish unity,
Been ruled we seek freedom,
Our days began when men explored
Seas in rafts and canoes.
Our nation born when men voyaged
The seas via the stars.
CHORUS
Third verse:
The world itself is an island
We seen from all nations.
Peace, friendship, co-operation,
Love and humanity.
With this Constitution,
We now become proud guardian
Of our beautiful islands.
CHORUS
