Look at this corageous young men

Their lifeless bodies are lying in the streets

Shot down by machine guns

Their only weapon was the truth

A peaceful fight they fought

For freedom and liberty they marched



A cry for liberty

The world just can't ignore

A cry for liberty

Why do we ignore



Again and again people are opressed

Violence is religion - injustice is the law

Did we learn what they thought?

A hopeless fight they fought

Astonished we stood still

They had to pay the bill



They stood up for their rights

They chose a peaceful fight

Their words were just ignored

Their hopes died by the sword
