That’s what the real anthem wants to say but can’t because it doesn’t want to offend.. as rappers would say that’s some real nicca 💩
It’s interesting to hear the national anthem of your nation. This post made me think, how long national anthems are compared to Japan’s. Just look at this 😂 and she is actually dragging it out.

Haha I would guess that Japans national anthem's short and powerful. Like no fuss about it.
I was wondering the same thing... What was going through Trefossa's mind when writing this... I imagine he had a good sense of humor and indeed people / politicians would prefer the one that was really used in the anthem. Keeping it "politically correct" (pc).
I've also read somewhere that they switched a word in the first stanza, from "vechtend houden w'in gedachten" (fighting we shall remember) to "werkend houden w'in gedachten" (while working we remember). That goes to show how pc they wanted to keep it. On the other hand, I think they had their reasons and we should indeed work together to built up the nation.
