桃园三结义

We 3, though of separate ancestry, join in brotherhood here, pulling together strength and purpose, to release the present crisis. We will perform our duty to the empire and protect the common folks of the land. We dare not hope to be together always but hereby vow to die the same day. Let splendent Heaven above and the fruitful land below bear witness to our resolution. May Heaven and man slay whosoever fails this vow.
