a new dawn



Sleepy heads, arise!
It's the beginning of a new day
Spectators, stand up!
It's time you take part in the match
A new tenure has begun

Lazybones, sit up!
It's high time you started working
Prodigals, wise up!
Start saving for the raining days
A new sun has risen

Cowards, pick up your tools!
Let's rebuild our city
Sluggards, enough of learning!
Your time is now
A new revolution has risen

The world is moving faster than we imagined
It's time to think
Our homes have been invaded
It's time to get up and fight
A new dawn has commenced

We won't stand and watch like cowards anymore
We already found a course for our fight
We won't let them toil with our feelings again
We will guide our independence
We found our strength, a new dawn has come.
