Thai anthem lyrics (English translation)
Thailand unites flesh and blood of Thais,
Nation of the people; belonging to the Thais in every respect.
Long maintained [has been] the independence,
Because the Thais seek, and love, unity.
Thais are peace-loving, But at war we’re no cowards.
Sovereignty will not be threatened.
They will sacrifice every drop of their blood to contribute to the nation,
Hail the nation of Thailand, long last the victory, Hurrah.
