RISEBA ANTHEM
Text:
We get it all!
We get it now!
We go this way and keep it with love!
We get the best!
We need no rest
We are simply number one!
Mēs zinām, ko mēs vēlamies,
Jo mūsu ceļš ir zināšanām klāts.
Mēs zinām, kurp mēs dodamies,
RISEBA – palīdz tālāk iet.
Mēs to zinām – kas ir vajadzīgs,
Lai šajā pasaulē mums paveiktos.
Mēs to zinām, ka nekas nav sīks,
Ņem visu pats, to citi neiedos!
We get it all!
We get it now!
We go this way and keep it with love!
We get the best!
We need no rest!
We are simply number one!
Mēs zinām, ko mēs nezinām,
Un tieši tāpēc vēl mācāmies!
Ver durvis vaļā, kas bija ciet,
RISEBA – palīdz tālāk iet!
Mēs vēlamies – to vislabāko,
Mēs vēlamies to iegūt, šeit, tūlīt!
Mēs vēlamies – to vislabāko,
RISEBA var sapņus piepildīt!
