Does anybody know of a phonetic translation of this so non-Canto speakers can (sort of) learn the words?

Those lyrics look as if a machine learning tool was exposed to all the world's national anthems and tasked to create a new set of lyrics.Moving this to another thread, as it seems this will be the new form of protest over the next few days.

Orchestral version posted today. The government can only dream of advertisments with such a production value.

Just saw the orchestral version and the Shatin crowd performance (from Kong Tsung-gan's link above) and admit getting the chills - the good type - from both the anthem and the momentum behind it.
I first heard the introductory studio version and while I thought it to be fine it felt a little gloomy. With the crowds it truly comes alive (vigoroso/con vivezza) with sneaky bits of cantopop feel and Catalonian style fervour in just the right places.
Awe-inspiring stuff.

The silent majority stages their own patriotic sing along in Olympian.

And a better video of the minority radicals disturbing the peace and quiet in Shatin.
