Forever Marshall Islands

Forever Marshall Islands is the national anthem of the Marshall Islands.

English lyrics

My island (heart) lies o'er the ocean;

Like a wreath of flowers upon the sea;

With a (the) light of Mekar from far above;

Shining the with the brilliance of rays of life;

Our Father's wondrous creation;

Bequeathed to us, our Motherland;

I'll never leave my dear home sweet home;

God of our forefathers protect and bless forever Marshall Islands.

Marshallese lyrics

Aelon eo ao ion lometo;

Einwot wut ko loti ion dren elae;

Kin meram in Mekar jen ijoilan;

Erreo an romak ioir kin meramin mour;

Iltan pein Anij eweleosim woj;

Kejolit kij kin ijin jikir emol;

Ijjamin Ilok jen in aolemo ran;

Anij an ro jemem wonakke im kej rammon Aelin kein am.
