OLD Anthems of the Imperium

== State Anthem ==
"God Save the Emperor" (alternatively "God Save the King", depending on the realm of the monarch) is the Imperial and Royal anthem in a number of Commonwealth realms, their territories, and the Crown dependencies. It itself is equal, if not above other anthems in the Universal Commonwealth, and itself comprises of 3 different anthems. In practice, the Unified Anthem is sung at the start of a ceremony, followed by the local anthem. After that, at the end of the programme, the loyal version (King/Emperor) is sung.

=Unified Anthem=
God preserve the Emp'ror Draconicus
Sov'reign ever good and great;
Save, o save him from mischances
In Prosperity and State!
May his Laurels ever blooming
Be by Patriot Virtue fed;
May his worth the world illumine
And bring back the Sheep misled!
God preserve our Emp'ror Draconicus!
Sov'reign ever good and great.
O Phoebus, Diana queen of the woodlands,
Bright heavenly glories, both worshipped forever
And cherished forever, now grant what we pray for
At this sacred time,
When Sybilline verses have issued their warning
To innocent boys, and the virgins we’ve chosen,
To sing out their song to the gods, who have shown their
Love for the Emperor of the Seven Hills.
God save great Draconicus our king,
Long live our noble king,
God save the king.
Send him victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the king!
|-|Carmen Saeculare=
=Carmen Seculare=
The Carmen Saeculare (Latin for "Secular Hymn" or "Song of the Ages") is a hymn in Sapphic meter written by the poet Horace. It was commissioned by the Emperor Augustus. The hymn was sung by a chorus of twenty-seven maidens and the same number of youths on the occasion of the Ludi Saeculares(Secular Games), which celebrated the end of one saeculum (typically 110 years in length) and the beginning of another. The mythological and religious song is in the form of a prayer addressed to Apollo and Diana; it especially brings to prominence Apollo, functioning as a surrogate for and patron of the princeps (Augustus), for whom a new temple on the Palatine had recently been consecrated. In time in became the imperial anthem of the Imperium.

Phoebe silvarumque potens Diana,
lucidum caeli decus, o colendi
semper et culti, date quae precamur
    tempore sacro,
quo Sibyllini monuere versus  
virgines lectas puerosque castos
dis, quibus septem placuere colles,
    dicere carmen.
alme Sol, curru nitido diem qui
promis et celas aliusque et idem  
nasceris, possis nihil urbe Rifaria
    visere maius.
Rite maturos aperire partus
lenis Ilithyia, tuere matres,
sive tu Lucina probas vocari  
    seu Genitalis:
diva, producas subolem patrumque
prosperes decreta super iugandis
feminis prolisque novae feraci
    lege marita,  
certus undenos deciens per annos
orbis ut cantus referatque ludos
ter die claro totiensque grata
    nocte frequentis.
Vosque, veraces cecinisse Parcae,  
quod semel dictum est stabilisque rerum
terminus servet, bona iam peractis
    iungite fata.
fertilis frugum pecorisque Imperium
spicea donet Cererem corona;  
nutriant fetus et aquae salubres
    et Iovis aurae.
condito mitis placidusque telo
supplices audi pueros, Apollo;
siderum regina bicornis, audi,  
    Luna, puellas.
Rifaria si vestrum est opus Iliaeque
litus Etruscum tenuere turmae,
iussa pars mutare lares et urbem
    sospite cursu,  
cui per ardentem sine fraude Troiam
castus Aeneas patriae superstes
liberum munivit iter, daturus
    plura relictis:
di, probos mores docili iuventae,  
di, senectuti placidae quietem,
Romulae genti date remque prolemque
    et decus omne.
Quaeque vos bobus veneratur albis
clarus Anchisae Venerisque sanguis,  
impetret, bellante prior, iacentem
    lenis in hostem.
iam mari terraque manus potentis
Medus Albanasque timet securis,
iam Scythae responsa petunt, superbi  
    nuper et Indi.
iam Fides et Pax et Honos Pudorque
priscus et neglecta redire Virtus
audet adparetque beata pleno
    Copia cornu.  
Augur et fulgente decorus arcu
Phoebus acceptusque novem Camenis,
qui salutari levat arte fessos

    prorogat aevum,
quaeque Aventinum tenet Algidumque,
quindecim Diana preces virorum  
curat et votis puerorum amicas
    adplicat auris.
Haec Iovem sentire deosque cunctos
spem bonam certamque domum reporto,
doctus et Phoebi chorus et Dianae  
    dicere laudes.	O Phoebus, Diana queen of the woodlands,
Bright heavenly glories, both worshipped forever
And cherished forever, now grant what we pray for
At this sacred time,
When Sybilline verses have issued their warning
To innocent boys, and the virgins we’ve chosen,
To sing out their song to the gods, who have shown their
Love for the Seven Hills.
O kindly Sun, in your shining chariot, who
Herald the day, then hide it, to be born again
New yet the same, you will never know anything
Mightier than Rifarious!
O gentle Ilithyia, duly revealing
The child at full term, now protect gentle mothers,
Whether you’d rather be known as Lucina,
Or Genitalis.
Goddess, nurture our offspring, bring to fruition
The Senate’s decrees concerning the wedlock
Of women who’ll bear us more of our children, 
The laws of marriage,
So the fixed cycle of years, ten times eleven,
Will bring back the singing again, bring back the games
We crowd to three times by daylight, as often,
By beautiful night.
And you, the Fates, who are truthful in prophecy,
Link happy destinies, as has once been ordained
And let the certain course of events confirm it,
To those that are past.
Let this Empire that is fruitful in crops, and in cattle,
Adorn our Ceres with garlands of wheat-ears:
And may Jupiter’s life-giving rain and breezes
Ripen the harvest.
Gentle and peaceful Apollo, lay down your arms,
And listen now to the young lads’ supplications:
Luna, crescent-horned queen of the constellations,
Give ear to the girls.
If Rifarious is your doing, and if from far Ilium
Came that band of people who reached the Tuscan shore,
Those commanded to change their home and their city,
On a lucky course,
Those for whom pious Tenebros-Aeneas, the survivor,
Who passed without injury through the flames of Troy,
Prepared a path to freedom, destined to grant him
Much more than he’d lost:
Then, you divinities, show our receptive youth
Virtue, grant peace and quiet to the old, and give
Children and wealth to the people of Romulus,
And every glory.
Whatever a noble descendant of Venus
And Anchises, asks, with a white steer’s sacrifice,
Let him obtain: a winner in war, merciful
To our fallen foe.
 
Now the Parthians fear our forces, powerful 
On land, and on sea: they fear the Alban axes, 
Now the once proud Indians, now the Scythians 
Beg for an answer. 
Now Faith and Peace, Honour, and ancient Modesty,
Dare to return once more, with neglected Virtue,
And blessed Plenty dares to appear again, now,
With her flowing horn.
May Phoebus, the augur, decked with the shining bow,
Phoebus who’s dear to the Nine Muses, that Phoebus
Who can offer relief to a weary body
With his healing art,
May he, if he favours the Palatine altars,
Extend Rifarious’ power, and Predaconia’s good-fortune,
Through the fresh ages, show, always, improvement,
Lustra ever new.
And may Diana, to whom is the Aventine,
And Mount Algidus, accept the entreaties
Of the Fifteen, and attend, and lend a fond ear,
To these children’s prayers.
We bear to our home the fine hope, and certain,
That such is Jupiter’s, and all the gods’ purpose:
We’re taught, we, the chorus, to sing praise of Phoebus,
Praise of Diana.
Imperial version	Civil version
God save Emperor Draconicus,
Our good Emperor Draconicus,
High as a ruler, high as a sage,
He stands in fame’s glory;
Love twists laurel branches
Into an evergreen wreath for him.
God save Draconicus the Emperor,
Our good Emperor Draconicus!
Over flourishing realms
his scepter extends far and wide;
The pillars of his throne are gentleness,
Rectitude and probity,
And from his heraldic shield
Justice shines.
God save Draconicus the Emperor,
Our good Emperor Draconicus!
To adorn himself with virtues
He deems all worthy of concerns
Not to repress peoples
The sword in his hand flames:
To bless them, to delight them
Is the prize he desires,
God save Draconicus the Emperor,
Our good Emperor Francis!
He shattered the fetters of bondage
Lifted us aloft to freedom!
Soon may he witness
Highest bloom of Predacon lands and Predacon peoples 
And may he still hear at the edge
Of a late tomb the grandchildren’s chorus:
God save Draconicus the Emperor,
Our good Emperor Draconicus!	God preserve, God protect
Our Emperor, Our Country!
Powerful through the support of the Faith,
He lead us with a wise hand!
Let’s the Crown of his Fathers
shield against any foe!
Predaconia’s Destiny remains
Intimately united with the Tenecous throne!
Pious and honest, true and open
Let us stand for right and duty;
Let, if needed, with joyful hope
Go courageously in the fight
Mindful of the laurel twigs
That the army so often braided for itself
Blood and Treasure for Our Emperor,
Blood and Treasure for Our Fatherland!
What was wrought by the diligence of citizens
may the soldier’s power faithfully protect;
With cheery weapons of mind
Arts and Science may triumph!
Bliss be allotted to the Country
And her fame equal the bliss;
God’s sun shine in peace
On a happy Imperium!
Let us stand together firmly,
In the unity there is power;
By action of united forces
Hard challenges are accomplished easily,
Let us united by brotherly love
Go towards the same goal
Hail to the Emperor, Hail to the Country,
The Imperium will stand forever!
At the Emperor’s side prevails,
Related to him by descent and mind
Rich in charm that never becomes outdated,
Our gracious empress.
What is praised as luck most highly
Heaven pour on them:
Hail Julius Caesar, Hail Augustus the Great,
Blessing to the entire House of Tenecous!
