O`r the green mountains and
O`r the green valleys
I`ve walked through the country
And felt me an age
A people so strong
They resist for so long
The boundaries that hold them

Children can sing of
the coming of Spring
A young man can`t defend
What he knows to be wrong
Women so strong
Needing peace for so long
The homelands lay broken

So the refugee walks such
a long lonely road
As the weak will die off
Make the young people old
To redeem a whole country
For selling its soul
To the bastions of war

So the refugee walks such
a long lonely road
As the weak will die off
Make the young people old
To redeem a whole country
For selling its soul
To the bastions of war

Weep a fresh tear for the mass graves
I fear won`t be long
As the young perish fast the land
Wiping the tears from the young
Gifted years, the millions lay down

O`r the green mountains and
O`r the green valleys
I`ve walked through the country
And felt me an age
A people so strong
They resist for so long
The boundaries that hold them
