Thank you, old guard

For vigorous defend of the constitution

From detractors

Who today wants war?

Tomorrow want peace

Back to war, back to peace

What a sick conscience?

—

Thank you old guards

For fabulous defeat of

The wolves who change ideologies like the weather

Today they believe in God

Tomorrow in Satan

Back to God, back to Satan

What mad wolfism?

—

Thank you old guards

For teaching village thieves a lesson

Thieves who today call all enemies

Tomorrow all brothers

Back to enmity, back to brotherhood

What a rabid Doggism?

—

Honour, glory be unto old guards

For their victory over

Brigands who loot food, cattle of their own people

Looting in villages

Killing in hospital

Killing in temple

Which political objectives there?

—-

Thank you old guards for your

Unchangeable zeal

Thank you, thank you

Thank you, thank you

Thank you old guards

Thank you SPLA
