Rise, my people, to defend our rights!
Rise, my heart, to change our plight!
Rise, my kin, so truth will win!
Rise up!
Rise, my people, to defend our rights!
Rise, my heart, to change our plight!
Rise, my kin, so truth will win!
Rise up!
A struggle to protect the air we breathe!
A struggle demanding justice!
A struggle to destroy evil!
Come, let us fight!
A struggle to protect the air we breathe!
A struggle demanding justice!
A struggle to destroy evil!
Come, let us fight!
A struggle to stay alive!
A struggle to protect what is ours!
A struggle to clear the darkness!
Come, let us fight!
A struggle to stay alive!
A struggle to protect what is ours!
A struggle to clear the darkness!
Come, let us fight!
O comrade...
Come like blazing fire...
O comrade...
Come as the solution, my friend...
Our fields have completely dried up!
Our bellies are starving empty!
Our dreams have vanished into the wind!
Even unborn lives have turned to blood!
Justice will surely triumph!
Deceit will surely fall away!
We stood helpless with no one by our side!
Now we have arrived, demanding justice!
Rise, my people, to defend our rights!
Rise, my heart, to change our plight!
Rise, my kin, so truth will win!
Rise up...
Rise, my people, to defend our rights!
Rise, my heart, to change our plight!
Rise, my kin, so truth will win!
Rise up!
Like the earth...
...bearing those who dig into it, we endured
We were shattered, we lost everything
Against those who mock us...
...we will fight back and make history
Tomorrow belongs to us!
They threatened us and snatched our rights
Seeing our patience, they mocked us
They acted, forgetting their duty
They took our votes and deceived us
They spread their traps all around
Using our livelihood, they bent us to their will
With no way out, people died
Open your eyes and look here!
Rise, my people, to defend our rights!
Rise, my heart, to change our plight!
Rise, my kin, so truth will win!
Rise up!
Rise, my people, to defend our rights!
Rise, my heart, to change our plight!
Rise, my kin, so truth will win!
Rise up!
A struggle searching for a new dawn!
A struggle to wipe away our sorrow!
A struggle that goes on day after day!
A struggle searching for a new dawn!
A struggle to wipe away our sorrow!
A struggle that goes on day after day!
