When darkness looms everywhere
When tyranny does cause a scare
When life and honour are at stake
When worries do keep us awake
When truth becomes an alien thing
When every rogue becomes a king
Pledge to honesty we must never break
Let us be forthright whatever the take
Fraud must be put to shame
Falsehood must hide in vain
Those who lie, cheat and deceive
Condemnation they must receive
Honoured must the honest be
Lauded ’n praised for this quality
Honesty does dazzle like the sun
War against deceit must be won
