The International
Arise ye workers from your slumbers
Arise ye prisoners of want
For reason in revolt now thunders
And at last ends the age of cant.
Away with all your superstitions
Servile masses arise, arise
We\'ll change henceforth the old tradition
And spurn the dust to win the prize.
Chorus:
So comrades, come rally
And the last fight let us face
The Internationale
Unites the human race.
No more deluded by reaction
On tyrants only we\'ll make war
The soldiers too will ta ke strike action
They\'ll break ranks and fight no more
And if those cannibals keep trying
To sacrifice us to their pride
They soon shall hear the bullets flying
We\'ll shoot the generals on our own side.
Chorus:
No saviour from on high delivers
No faith have we in prince or peer
Our own right hand the chains must shiver
Chains of hatred, greed and fear
E\'er the thieves will out with their booty
And give to all a happier lot.
Each at the forge must do their duty
And we\'ll strike while the iron is hot.
Chorus:
USA
The International
Arise, you prisoners of starvation!
Arise, you wretched of the earth!
For justice thunders condemnation.
A better world\'s in birth.
No more tradition\'s chains shall bind us.
Arise, you slaves, no more in thrall!
The earth shall rise on new foundations.
We have been naught, we shall be all.
\'Tis the final conflict;
Let each stand in his place.
The international working class
Shall be the human race.
The Internationale door Billy Bragg
Stand up, all victims of oppression
For the tyrants fear your might
Don\'t cling so hard to your possessions
For you have nothing, if you have no rights
Let racist ignorance be ended
For respect makes the empires fall
Freedom is merely privilege extended
Unless enjoyed by one and all.
So come brothers and sisters
For the struggle carries on
The Internationale
Unites the world in song
So comrades come rally
For this is the time and place
The international ideal
Unites the human race
Let no one build walls to divide us
Walls of hatred nor walls of stone
Come greet the dawn and stand beside us
We\'ll live together or we\'ll die alone
In our world poisoned by exploitation
Those who have taken, now they must give
And end the vanity of nations
We\'ve one but one Earth on which to live
And so begins the final drama
In the streets and in the fields
We stand unbowed before their armour
We defy their guns and shields
When we fight, provoked by their aggression
Let us be inspired by life and love
For though they offer us concessions
Change will not come from above.
The International (Zuid-Afrika)
Arise ye prisoners of starvation
Arise ye toilers of the earth
For reason thunders new creation
\'tis a better world in birth.
Never more traditions\'chains shall bind us
Arise ye toilers no more in thrall
The Earth shall rise on new foundations
We are but naught we shall be all.
Then comrades come rally
And the last fight let us face
The Internationale
Unites the human race
