Do you hear the people sing
     Lost in the valley of the night
     It is the music of a people
     Who are climbing to the light

     For the wretched of the earth
     There is a flame that never dies
     Even the darkest night will end
     And the sun will rise.

     They will live again in freedom
     In the garden of the Lord
     They will walk behind the plough-share
     They will put away the sword
     The chain will be broken
     And all men will have their reward!

     Will you join in our crusade?
     Who will be strong and stand with me?
     Somewhere beyond the barricade
     Is there a world you long to see?
     Do you hear the people sing
     Say, do you hear the distant drums?
     It is the future that they bring
     When tomorrow comes!
