The world is standstill.
Human life is in sudden peril.
Deaths in thousands lie,
Shock our unprepared universe
No time to weep, no time to cry
For the countless, silent hearse.
No matter what, believe in your own faith,
In our unabated, united strength
That whatever be the calamity
Victory will belong to humanity.
Numerous martyrs of the war
Have sacrificed their lives for us
We bow to them and take a vow
That this too shall pass,
This too shall pass
Soon we will show us how
We could concur to conquer the virus.
No matter what, believe in your own faith,
In our unabated, united strength
That whatever be the calamity
Victory will belong to humanity.
