Ezo Red Fox: What's an 'anthem'?

Narrator: A national anthem is a patriotic musical composition symbolizing and evoking eulogies of the history and traditions of a country or a nation.

Human: In a nutshell, it's a song about the history of a country. It represents the country itself and the people sing them in honor of their country.

Japanese Crested Ibis' eyes widen.

Japanese Crested Ibis: Humans can sing too?

Human: Of course.

Royal Penguin: That's very interesting. I didn't know humans can sing.

Gentoo Penguin: Now I'm excited to hear it!

Narrator: Say no more. First, we'll start off with a famous one. One from Russia. Specifically the USSR/Soviet Union.

Lion: USSR? Soviet Union?

Human: That's what Russia was called during World War 2. It had something to do with Lenin taking over and turning the whole country communist.

Suri Alpaca: Lenin?

Margay: Communist?

Jaguar: There's so many confusing things.

Narrator: All will be explained as we go on. For now, we focus on the national anthem of the USSR. Here it is:

The Friends intensely listen to the national anthem while Human is humming along to the lyrics and instrumental. Japanese Crested Ibis was shocked and dumbfounded at hearing the humans singing, wishing she could be just like them.


After the anthem ends.....

Narrator: Well, what do you guys think?

Serval: It was amazing! Are humans really good at singing?

Narrator: With some practice, yes.

Japanese Crested Ibis: I wish to learn how I can sing like them. Human, can you teach me how?

Human: Ummmm..... I don't know how I can teach you.

Kaban: But Toki, you already sound amazing.

Japanese Crested Ibis: Yes but after hearing the humans sing that song, I want to improve so I can be as good as them.
