Let me hear you sing 
Sing a song of freedom
High above the cannon’s roar
Louder than before the darkness fell
So everyone can tell whose voice they hear
So the hear it loud and clear 

Let me hear you sing of joy
Let me hear not of your sorrow 
Sing of all that’s yet to come
Sing of all the new tomorrows 

Sing of sunflowers
And the sweet, summer rain 
Sing of amber waves of grain
Sing of blue skies
And the rites of spring 
When lovers cling to one another
Sing a song of love 

Let me hear you sing
Sing the song of life 
Of hardship and of toil
Of blood and sweat
Lest we forget the tears we cried 
And the pride we take in living 
For freedom’s never free
Nor held onto easily 

Let me hear you sing
Sing a song of courage 
Such as the world has never known!
Of stout hearts and of loyal souls 
For the seeds you sow today 
Will bloom for a thousand months of May
And shall never be forgotten!

Sing, Nightingale, sing!
Sing your song of freedom!
Louder than the cannon’s roar!
Stronger than before the darkness fell!
So than all the world can tell whose voice they hear!
Sing it loud and clear!
