Hide nothing from the masses of our people. Tell no lies. Expose lies whenever they are told. Mask no difficulties, mistakes, failures. Claim no easy victories.

The colonists usually say that it was they who brought us into history: today we show that this is not so. They made us leave history, our history, to follow them, right at the back, to follow the progress of their history.

We are not going to eliminate imperialism by shouting insults at it.

Tell no lies' claim no easy victories

No matter how hot the water from your well, it will not cook your rice.

Hide nothing from the masses of our people. Tell no lies. Expose lies whenever they are told. Mask no difficulties, mistakes, failures. Claim no easy victories.

We must act as if we answer to, and only answer to, our Ancestors, our children, and the unborn.
