My friend the day have been hard
but keep on man, a little more
Soon the night will come
And we'll dream of our homeland
Where our children run free
will run free

And we'll be able to smile with them
They can hurt our body, but not our faith
They plague our skin, but not our soul
Look at the sky and just wait

Our tears change into hope
And your tired hands into prayers
The carriage comes to feet us

You always knew where to go
Where your place of happiness is
With our blood they buy money
But with that we bought redemption

If your mind lives beyond the chains
You will never be a slave
In your heart faith is like
dancing on cotton with no thorns

Your smile takes me home
