Original lyrics

EN
A desperate situation Forced to retaliation The task ahead, a burden Men will suffer, that's for certain We're charging to the fire The cause, we must inspire We raise our fists to tyranny A high price, freedom is not free The odds are stacked against us But with our resolve relentless An arrogance, their weakness Our cause is just, we won't be beaten Upon this declaration Will come a grand new nation Where men are seen as equal Governed by and for the people So we make our stand and pray On this declaration day For independence, I will fight With liberty, I will defy So we make our stand and pray On this declaration day Give me liberty or give me death I'll fight till my last breath With virtue as our beacon Our cause is charged as treason Battle worn and starving Through the hell of war we'll keep marching The birth of our new nation An act of desperation We'll force King George down to his knees Capitulation So we make our stand and pray On this declaration day For independence, I will fight With liberty, I will defy So we make our stand and pray On this declaration day Give me liberty or give me death I'll fight till my last breath So we make our stand and pray On this declaration day For independence, I will fight With liberty, I will defy So we make our stand and pray On this declaration day Give me liberty or give me death I'll fight till my last breath
