The People United Will Never Be Defeated lyrics

They stand all tall, their back against the wall
Their flags are torn, their voices are coarse
But you will come and march alongside me
And we will raise new banners floating in the wind
The twilight zone will turn into the dawn
Of a day of peace and justice for all
 
Arise, unite and don’t give up the fight
Face guns with stones and arrogance with rights
The harder they come, the harder they fall
We stand as one - the International
We know the day will come when we shall overcome
And sing a song of liberty for all
 
So when the people, united in their struggle
Will raise their voice, you’ll answer their call:
The people united will never be defeated!
The people united will never be defeated!
 
We stand up strong though many have fallen
Their names unsung but their plights unforgotten
Their blood has soaked the streets of our towns
We must prevail, if we lose every battle
We will rise anew and keep alive the voice
Of men who sang of dignity for all
 
Arise, arise, the time has come again
When might is right to rekindle the flame
To turn the tide of rising poverty
We will not bow to powers of iniquity
We shall reclaim the ground that workers ploughed
And bring about equality for all
 
So when the workers, united in their struggle
Will raise their voice, we’ll answer their call:
The people united will never be defeated!
The people united will never be defeated!
The people united will never be defeated!
The people united will never be defeated!
