Our soil, our country
"Our soil, our country" is the national anthem of Bonises. The song uses the tune from a part from "Marcia Alla Turca" by Ludwig van Beethoven. The song was originally used as a military song, but the lyrics are altered for appropriate purposes. The current lyrics talk about the Battle of Port Bonises in the War of Storbass and the flag flying on a mast during the battle.

| 1. | O, spot the battleships, the guns, they'll commit; The sparkling stars are our hope, lit the canons, to fire! We will not give up our freedom and thy skies, Quarrel for our independence, not to be taken over Ships are shooting, night turned to day We shall be one, unite! For our homeland, for our country. It's our soil, it's our country. None shall touch nor take over us! | |
| Chorus | The night lit up and turned to day,
We do not give up They jumped, they jumped, Lay down, lay down. See the glare bursting out, No one shall touch our homeland, fatherland! | |
| 2. | Free people shall not be taken over, by a ruler.
Let us march to our mast The sunny flag shall stand! It will never be removed, nor teared apart. Louder noises, from the gunners, Hath do to protect our land. It's our soil, it's our country, It's our work to contribute Look, the Britons, look, their soldiers, They fired, we fired, Our motto will not be replaced by any other, not from us!
