God zij met ons Suriname is the national anthem of Suriname.

The words in Dutch:

God zij met ons Suriname

Hij verheffe ons heerlijk land

Hoe wij hier ook samen kwamen

Aan zijn land zijn wij verpand

Werkend houden we in gedachten

Recht en waarheid maken vrij

Al wat goed is te betrachten

Dat geeft aan ons land waardij.

The words in English:

Rise country men, rise

The soil of Suriname is calling you.

Where ever our ancestors came from

We should take care of our country.

We are not afraid to fight

God is our leader

Our whole life until our death,

We will fight for Surinam.

Note that the words in English and Dutch are not literal translations of each other. A more literal translation of the Dutch to English would be:

God be with us Suriname

He elevated our lovely land

However we came together here

We are dedicated to his land

Working we keep in mind

justice and truth make free

All that's good we should do

That gives value to our land
