Lyrics
A people rise against their foe,
their weapons are not those of war
They face the guns prepared to fall,
standing for their cause
Darkness falls upon the square,
where sounds of protest filled the air
In the silence they are there,
for we still remember
And though the times are hard to stand,
Never will I crawl
Her light shines through the ages,
Empires rise and fall
Liberty, free me
Heroes who have led no war,
their names will live for evermore
Leaders of the people,
stand for one and all
A single voice in many tongues,
sings quietly but oh so strong
Sing a song of freedom
Chorus
