National Anthem Resolution

By this Resolution, the Imperial Parliament of Alexandria approves the lyrics of the Alexandrian National Anthem, as follows:

QUOTE
This to Alexandria, Fair and Free
by Max Basil

Thou means oh so much to me,
Triumphant banner of delight.
Beautiful silver sky-kite,
glistening as it flutters in the gale--
This is Alexandria, fair and free.

No storm shall overturn thee;
Thine Emperor, of Island Lore,
Portela, thy Commodore,
Wisely charts for thee a safe, gilded trail--
This for Alexandria, fair and free.

Without thee I would not see
That which Independence offers
To me, all my familiars,
And anyone whom normalcy's too pale--
This from Alexandria, fair and free.

I hail thee and extol thee
There never was a place so bright,
Or where things felt so alright.
May Fate and Moira extend thy tale--
This to Alexandria, fair and free.


Jacques de Beaufort - February 17, 2006 12:38 AM (GMT)
YES

Jean Michel Leclerc - February 17, 2006 09:08 AM (GMT)
Oh go on then.... OUI.

Jacques de Beaufort - February 20, 2006 05:11 PM (GMT)
Voting on this Resolution begun 5 days ago so it is time to close it. As it is a Parliament's Resolution it does not recquire Imperial Assent (I double checked this with the Emperor), so Congratulations LAdies and Gentlemen we have a National Anthem.

Sincerely,

RESOLUTION APPROVED
