And we live in despair

Sisters, O sisters

Lets stand up right now

To start from the start

Wisdom, O wisdom

We must learn to ask

Oh freedom, oh freedom, that's what we ask for
That's what we live for now

It's never too late to build a new world
Oh new world, oh new world
That's what we live for
And yes, my dear sisters, we must learn to live

New world, oh new world, that's what we live for
That's what we all must all learn to build
Oh new world, oh new world, that's what we live for

New world, oh new world, that's what we live for
That's what we must now learn to be
Oh new world, oh new world, that's what we live for
That's what we all must learn to be
