Do You Hear the People Sing? Songtext
von Michael Maguire

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again

When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?

Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free


Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again

When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes

Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance?
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?

The blood of the martyrs
Will water the meadows of France

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again


When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes
