Sansoen Suea Pa (Thai: สรรเสริญเสือป่า, lit: Glorify to Wild Tigers) is the march of the Wild Tiger Corps. It is a western arrangement of Bulan Loi Luean, a song composed by King Rama II (continued by Khru Mi Khaek [th]) that was used as the royal anthem during King Rama V's reign.[1][2]

Thai lyrics
พวกเรา ประนอมกันเข้าเปนเสือป่า
ตั้งสัตย์โดยจินตนา กตเวที
ปู่ย่าตายายไม่เสียดายชีวี บำราบอรีเลื่องฤๅ
เราฤๅจักปล่อยให้ถอยศักดิ์ได้
จะรกำ ฤ จะลำบากเท่าไร
จนถึงว่าตัวจักตายเปนตาย ขณะถึงคราวควรตาย
เกิดเปนชาติไทย ถึงอย่างไรไม่ยอมเปนทาษ
เหตุว่าเรารักชาติ แลศาสนาเปนอาจิณ
เราหนอจงอารักษ์ รัฐจักรแลพระจอมแผ่นดิน
คอยผลาญสัตรูในนอกให้สิ้น
แม้เสียชีพอย่าเสียสัตย์ ฯ
English translation
We have united to become the Wild Tigers
We vowed with our minds and grateful hearts
To be like our ancestors who did not put their lives to waste and became renowned.
We will not let our honour diminish.
No matter the hard times,
Even if we have to die, let it be so, when the time comes.
Born as Thai, no matter what, we will never be slaves
Because we love our nation and religion forever.
We must protect our sovereignty and our ruler
We strive to eliminate all internal and external enemies.
Even if we lose our lives, let us not lose our honor!

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
