980-1016 d.C.<\/p>\n

Siempre es una tentaci\u00f3n para una naci\u00f3n armada y \u00e1gil
\nLlamar a un vecino y decirle:
\n\u00abOs invadimos anoche, estamos totalmente preparados para luchar,
\nA menos que nos pagueis en efectivo para que nos vayamos \u00ab.<\/p>\n

Y eso se llama \u00abpedir el impuesto dan\u00e9s\u00bb,
\nY la gente que lo pide explica
\nQue solo tienes que pagarles el impuesto dan\u00e9s
\n\u00a1Y luego te librar\u00e1s del dan\u00e9s!<\/p>\n

Siempre es una tentaci\u00f3n para una naci\u00f3n avanzada y perezosa,
\nPavonear y parecer importante y decir:
\n\u00abAunque sabemos que deber\u00edamos derrotaros, no tenemos tiempo de hacerlo
\nPor lo tanto, os pagaremos en efectivo para que os vayais \u00ab.<\/p>\n

Y eso se llama \u00abpagar el impuesto dan\u00e9s\u00bb;
\nPero lo hemos comprobado una y otra vez
\nQue, una vez has pagado el impuesto dan\u00e9s
\nNunca te deshaces del dan\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Est\u00e1 mal poner la tentaci\u00f3n en el camino de cualquier naci\u00f3n,
\nPor temor a que sucumban y se extrav\u00eden;
\nEntonces, cuando se le solicite que pague para no ser molestado,
\nSer\u00e1 mejor pol\u00edtica decir:<\/p>\n

\u00abNunca pagamos a nadie el impuesto dan\u00e9s,
\nNo importa cu\u00e1n insignificante sea el costo;
\nPorque el fin de ese juego es la opresi\u00f3n y la verg\u00fcenza,
\n\u00a1Y la naci\u00f3n que lo juega est\u00e1 perdida! \u00bb<\/p>\n

A.D. 980-1016<\/p>\n

It is always a temptation to an armed and agile nation
\nTo call upon a neighbour and to say:–
\n\u00abWe invaded you last night–we are quite prepared to fight,
\nUnless you pay us cash to go away.\u00bb<\/p>\n

And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
\nAnd the people who ask it explain
\nThat you’ve only to pay ‘em the Dane-geld
\nAnd then you’ll get rid of the Dane!<\/p>\n

It is always a temptation for a reach and lazy nation,
\nTo puff and look important and to say:–
\n\u00abThough we know we should defeat you, we have not the
\ntime to meet you.
\nWe will therefore pay you cash to go away.\u00bb
\nAnd that is called paying the Danegeld;<\/p>\n

But we’ve proved it again and again,
\nThat if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
\nYou never get rid of the Dane.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
\nFor fear they should succumb and go astray;<\/div>\n
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,<\/div>\n
You will find it better policy to say:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
–\u00abWe never pay any-one Dane-geld,
\nNo matter how trifling the cost;
\nFor the end of that game is oppression and shame,
\nAnd the nation that plays it is lost!\u00bb<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
