The moon is hidden in the clouds<\/em><\/strong>
\nthe firelight is dying<\/em><\/strong>
\nin the dark, slum and street<\/em><\/strong>
\nmen, women, children crying<\/em><\/strong>
\nno work today means no pay<\/em><\/strong>
\nand no pay means we’re starving<\/em><\/strong>
\nmother i’m with child again<\/em><\/strong>
\nI feel like I am dying<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

A pen. A pen your weapon be<\/em><\/strong>
\nmy fine courageous women<\/em><\/strong>
\nlet’s sing our names a thousand times<\/em><\/strong>
\nfor freadom that’s hard winning<\/em><\/strong>
\nno more let fear and anger rule<\/em><\/strong>
\nwith heavy handed violence<\/em><\/strong>
\nthe moon is shining in the sky<\/em><\/strong>
\nas we break the silence<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

(refren)<\/em><\/strong>
\nLove and justice be my flag<\/em><\/strong>
\nI’ll live my truth what e’re will be<\/em><\/strong>
\nI swear that I cannot rest<\/em><\/strong>
\ntill there’s equality<\/em><\/strong>
\nlove and justice be my flag<\/em><\/strong>
\nI’ll live my trutht whatever comes<\/em><\/strong>
\nso many rivers to cross<\/em><\/strong>
\ntil our journey’s done<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Daughter, sister, mother, wife<\/em><\/strong>
\nwhen you rise so shall others<\/em><\/strong>
\nhappiness will fall upon<\/em><\/strong>
\nson, father, husband, brother<\/em><\/strong>
\nin home and in the market place<\/em><\/strong>
\ntown and countryside<\/em><\/strong>
\nlet our laughter spread it’s wealth<\/em><\/strong>
\nit’s surely our birthright!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
