磋商
你是团结最可信赖的朋友
权威却与你势成水火
他钟爱辩论，而你不亢不卑的说：
"我叫磋商——
行不改名，坐不改姓。"
他火红的刀锋斩首正义
圆睁的眼睛制裁和平
平等久被粗暴的脚掌践踏
当团结的旌旗摇摇欲坠
贪婪的火箭趁机撕裂天空
你伸出绵柔而坚定的臂膀
将平等扶回圆桌中央
在你指尖下，理智重新呼吸
追问真理的去向
全民在你和谐的屋檐下谋划未来
政策排队经过你伫立的仪仗台
你的身影在台上婀娜
又在台下风姿绰约
当你洪亮的声音宣布共和的远景
四海蛟龙、蟹兵与虾将
潜入地宫，从此绝迹

Consultation
You are unity's most trusted friend,
yet power meets you like flint meets steel.
He prefers arguments,
but you answers without pride nor meekness:
"My name is Consultation—
I change neither name nor nature."
His blade, red-hot, strikes justice down;
his commanding eyes sanction the breath of peace.
Equality, long ground beneath brutal heels—
when unity's banner trembles in the wind,
and greedy rockets rip the sky apart,
you raise calm, unyielding arms,
set equality once more at the round table's heart.
Beneath your fingertips, reason draws breath anew,
pursuing the trails of truth.
Beneath your roof of harmony,
the people shape the days to come.
Every policy must pass in order
before the platform where you stand sentinel.
Your figure sway with grace upon the stage,
and off the stage, your charm in no less enchanting.
And when your ringing voice
names the vision of the republic,
the dragons of the four seas—
along with their crab soldiers and shrimp troops—
sink into the deep earth,
and are never seen again.
