 Forward O youth!
Forever advancing,
Look to horizons far,
Eyes do not grope
In depth of night
That look on a shining star,
Nations, fearful in apartness,
Need your sight to light their darkness,
Look up, O youth forever advancing,
Look to horizons far. |
| |
 Waken! This hour is no time for sleeping
Welcome the rising sun,
Nations are stirring out of their slumbers;
Great is the work undone.
Waken sisters! Waken brothers!
Rise up now, and waken others!
Welcome the morn; a new day is born
When people shall live as one. |
| |
 Go on with singing over the land,
Wherever the roadways lie.
Freedom shall be the theme of your song,
The watchword of peace your cry;
Equal right for every brother,
Lands at peace with one another,
Loyal to truth, the singing of youth,
Shall echo from hill to sky. |
