[Intro]
We lost our green land
We lost our clean air
We lost our true wisdom
And we live in despair

[Verse 1]
Oh sisters, oh sisters, lets stand up right now
It's never too late to start from the start
Oh wisdom, oh wisdom, that's what we ask for
And yes, my dear sisters, we must learn to ask

[Chorus]
Wisdom, oh wisdom, that's what we ask for
That's what we live for now
Oh wisdom, oh wisdom, that's what we ask for
That's what we live for now

[Verse 2]
Oh sisters, oh sisters, let's wake up right on
It's never too late to shout from our hearts
Oh freedom, oh freedom that's what we fight for
And yes my dear sisters, we must learn to fight

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

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Oh sisters, oh sisters, let's give up no more
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

[Chorus]
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
That's what we must now learn to build

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
