ARYAN BROTHERHOODPLEDGE

An Aryan brother is without a care,He walks where the weak and heartless won’t dare,And if by chance he should stumble and lose control,His brothers will be there, to help reach his goal,For a worthy brother, no need is too great,He need not but ask, fulfillment’s his fate.For an Aryan brother, death holds no fear,Vengeance will be his, through his brothers still here.
