Lyrics:
In days we have strived for,
In nights we have fought for,
The glory of Recon
is true in our heart.
To feel our spirit,
in triumph and anguish,
The moment we'll cherish,
is pure in our soul.
The might of our people
The flame of Lelouxians
We will fight together
for one final stand!
Remembrance of Kingdom
affirms our credence
The pride of our Empire
will last till the dawn!
The pride of our Empire will last...
We will last the dawn!
