The National Anthem of the Republic of Panzook, officially titled "Rise, Comrades of Panzook," was composed by order of the Supreme Leader and adopted as the official anthem of the Republic upon its founding. It is to be sung with full voice, clenched fist raised, and heart full of revolutionary fire. The anthem is performed at all state ceremonies, national holidays, military parades, diplomatic receptions, and any occasion the Supreme Leader deems worthy of its glory. The anthem consists of five verses, three chorus repetitions, two bridges, and a grand final reprise — the proudest anthem of any sovereign republic in the micronational world.
Verse I — The Call to Rise
Rise, comrades of Panzook, united and free, Our red flag flies proudly for all we shall be. From border to border, our people stand tall, In Panzook we prosper — together, not fall. No tyrant shall break us, no empire shall reign, The Republic of Panzook shall always remain! We march through the morning, we march through the night, For Panzook is worth every struggle and fight. Our voices ring out over mountain and plain, Rise, comrades of Panzook — rise up once again!
Chorus
Panzook! Panzook! Forever we stand, A communist nation, a proud sovereign land. Long live the republic, long live the free — Glory to Panzook, now and forever shall be! Raise high the red banner, let it fly to the sky, For Panzook shall never surrender or die. We are one, we are many, we are strong, we are true — Panzook, we give everything we have to you!
Verse II — The People's Pledge
Our children shall grow in the light of the cause, Protected by justice and Panzookian laws. The workers, the farmers, the dreamers unite — For Panzook we labor, for Panzook we fight! No hunger shall haunt us, no chains shall we wear, The people of Panzook breathe revolutionary air! We pledge to the republic our hands and our hearts, Our sweat and our courage, our science and arts. From cradle to glory, from birth until death, We sing for our nation with every last breath!
Verse III — The Soldier's March
From the fields of our homeland to the edge of the sea, Our navy sails onward, our people are free. The soldiers of Panzook stand guard through the night, Our banners of crimson burn fierce in the light. No foreign oppressor shall darken our door — The Republic of Panzook shall bow down no more! We march in formation, our boots on the ground, The thunder of Panzook — a glorious sound. Our rifles are ready, our hearts are aflame, We fight for the republic and honor its name!
Verse IV — The Farmer's Song
The soil of our nation is rich, dark, and deep, The seeds that we sow are the promises we keep. The harvest belongs to the people alone — No landlord, no master, no throne to be known. We till in the morning, we reap in the sun, And share every fruit of the labor we've done. The fields of great Panzook stretch wide and stretch far, Each grain is a triumph, each crop is a star. From furrow to table, from earth to the sky, The farmers of Panzook shall never go dry!
Bridge I — The Revolutionary's Oath
We did not ask permission to exist, We did not beg the world to know our name. We raised our flag with our own two fists, And Panzook will never, ever be the same. Through struggle and sacrifice, through fire and through rain, We built something sacred — and it shall remain! Let empires crumble and kingdoms fall down, Let tyrants be toppled and stripped of their crown. For Panzook stands firm on the rock of the free — A beacon of justice for all who can see!
Verse V — The Artist's Tribute
The artists of Panzook paint freedom in red, The poets write verses for the living and dead. Our scientists gaze at the stars up above, And build for tomorrow with labor and love. Our culture, our language, our spirit, our song — To Panzook we belong, to Panzook we belong! The sculptor carves heroes from marble and stone, The musician plays anthems in every home. The dancer leaps high in the name of the state, And art in great Panzook is always first-rate!
Chorus
Panzook! Panzook! Forever we stand, A communist nation, a proud sovereign land. Long live the republic, long live the free — Glory to Panzook, now and forever shall be! Raise high the red banner, let it fly to the sky, For Panzook shall never surrender or die. We are one, we are many, we are strong, we are true — Panzook, we give everything we have to you!
Bridge II — The Nation Speaks
We are not a footnote in somebody's book, We are not a rumor, a whisper, a look. We are Panzook — sovereign, mighty, and real, A nation of iron with a people of steel. The world may not know us, the maps may be wrong, But Panzook has always been here all along. We do not need permission to be great, We do not need the world to validate. For Panzook is Panzook — and that is enough — A diamond of nations, unpolished but tough!
Chorus
Panzook! Panzook! Forever we stand, A communist nation, a proud sovereign land. Long live the republic, long live the free — Glory to Panzook, now and forever shall be! Raise high the red banner, let it fly to the sky, For Panzook shall never surrender or die. We are one, we are many, we are strong, we are true — Panzook, we give everything we have to you!
Grand Final Reprise
Panzook! Panzook! Our banners held high, Our anthem rings out 'neath the revolutionary sky. From this day to eternity, proud and unbowed — The Republic of Panzook cries victory aloud! Panzook! Panzook! Forever we stand, A communist nation, a proud sovereign land. Long live the republic, long live the free — Glory to Panzook, now and forever shall be! Rise, comrades of Panzook, united and free, Our red flag flies proudly for all we shall be! From border to border, our people stand tall — In Panzook we prosper, together through all! PANZOOK! PANZOOK! FOREVER! FOREVER! The republic endures — now and always — FOREVER!
