On this image you see the music of the national anthem of Suriname together with a stanza in Dutch (top) and a stanza in Sranan Tongo (bottom). This zip file (6kB) contains a little program that you can use to play the music of the anthem of Suriname on a MSDOS-PC. The stanza in Sranan Tongo is used most of the time. It was written by Trefosa which is the pseudonym Henry (Henny) F. de Ziel (1916-1975). This is the English translation of the anthem:
Opo kondreman oen opo
Rise country men, rise
Sranan gron e kari oen
The soil of Suriname is calling you
Wans ope tata komopo
Where ever our ancestors came from
Wi moes seti kondre boen
We should take care of our country
Stre de f'stre wi no sa frede
We are not afraid to fight
Gado de wi fesi man
God is our leader
Heri libi te na dede
Our whole life until our death
Wi sa feti gi Sranan
We will fight for Suriname
