"The Internationale"

Arise ye starvelings from your slumbers
Arise ye prisoners of want
For reason in revolt now thunders
and at last ends the age of cant.
Now away with all your superstitions
Servile masses arise, arise!
We'll change forthwith the old conditions
And spurn the dust to win the prize.

CHORUS
Then come comrades rally
And the last fight let us face
The Internationale
Unites the human race. (repeat).

We peasants, artisans and others,
Enrolled amongst the sons of toil
Let's claim the earth henceforth for brothers
Drive the indolent from the soil.
On our flesh for too long has fed the raven
We've too long been the vultures prey.
But now farewell to spirit craven
The dawn brings in a brighter day.
CHORUS

No saviour from on high delivers
No trust we have in prince or peer
Our own right hand the chains must shiver
Chains of hatred, greed and fear.
Ere the thieves will out with their booty
And to all give a happier lot.
Each at his forge must do his duty
And strike the iron while its hot.
CHORUS

|------------------------------------------------------@

'One day, the exhausted and the hungry will fight, and those held hostage by those who have power over what they need to survive will be free. The masses can and will raise themselves to the level of those who hold sway over them by means of tired superstition and cant. There will be changes, but these changes will be clothed in the dust of toil and fighting.
The people who work the land are not able to hold land - that has to be changed. For too long the landowners have simply used those on their land as fodder for cannon and then for the scavengers. Unless the toilers find the courage to fight, this will never change.
There is no deus ex machina to resolve this, no lord who will save everyone. The chains that hold the common man can only and will only be broken by the common man. All of us must apply ourselves to this, and together we can win the struggle.'

No time machine will resolve it. No saviour from above will save everyone. Mark these words in valour!
