Lyrics
Woman shed tears of Sorrow for their men so far away
Women express sorrow for their distant men.
With hope they wait for tomorrow - but in the night
Hopeful anticipation for tomorrow, overshadowed by night prayers.
They bow their heads and pray
In the night, heads bow in prayer.
They live by the sword and the gun
They embrace a life guided by weapons.
And now they march through the darkness
Marching through darkness symbolizing challenges.
The fire of freedom burns brught like the sun
The pursuit of freedom burns brightly.
Soldier
Addressing the soldier.
Fighting for liberty
Fighting for liberty is the soldier's mission.
With blood on your hands
Blood-stained hands signify the cost of the fight.
You lead your command onward...to victory
Leading the command forward to victory.
Soldier
Reiteration of addressing the soldier.
Thrashing across the seas
Powerful movement across the seas.
Mighty you stand
The soldier stands mightily.
Defending the land
Defending the land is a noble act.
With a heart that's brave and free
Characterizing the soldier's heart as brave and free.
Back home there's fear and hunger
At home, fear and hunger prevail.
Out in the streets
Desperation and bleeding in the streets.
The desperate bleed
Highlighting the plight of the desperate.
Out in this world there stalks a killer
A dangerous killer roams the world with lust and greed.
Who's heart is filled with lust and greed
Describing the killer's heart.
Soldier
Reiteration of addressing the soldier.
Fighting for liberty
Fighting for liberty remains the soldier's cause.
With blood on your hands
Blood-stained hands as a symbol of sacrifice.
You lead your command onward... to victory
Continuing to lead the command towards victory.
Soldier
Repeating the address to the soldier.
Thrashing across the seas
Powerful movement across the seas persists.
Mighty you stand
The soldier stands mighty in defense.
Defending the land
Continued dedication to defending the land.
With a heart that's brave and free...
Emphasizing the soldier's heart as both brave and free.
