\nAwaken<\/span><\/p>\n
\nBreak your chains. demand your rights.<\/span>
\nAII the wealth you make is taken<\/span>
\nBy exploiting parasites.<\/span>
\nShall you kneel in deep submission<\/span>
\nFrom your cradles to your graves?<\/span>
\nls the height of your ambition<\/span>
\nTo be good and willing slaves?<\/span><\/p>\n
\nArise, ye prisoners of starvation!<\/span><\/em>
\nFight for your own emancipation;<\/span><\/em>
\nArise, ye slaves of every nation.<\/span><\/em>
\nIn One Union grand.<\/span><\/em>
\nOur little ones for bread are crying,<\/span><\/em>
\nAnd millions are from hunger dying;<\/span><\/em>
\nThe end the means is justifying,<\/span><\/em>
\n‘Tis the final stand.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
\nThey can stop all speeding trains;<\/span>
\nEvery ship upon the ocean<\/span>
\nThey can tie with mighty chains.<\/span>
\nEvery wheel in the creation,<\/span>
\nEvery mine and every mill ,<\/span>
\nFleets and armies of the nation,<\/span>
\nWill at their command stand still.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nMen and women, side by side;<\/span>
\nWe will crush the greedy shirkers<\/span>
\nLike a sweeping, surging tide;<\/span>
\nFor united we are standing,<\/span>
\nBut divided we will fall;<\/span>
\nLet this be our understanding —<\/span>
\n“All for one and one for all.”<\/span><\/p>\n
\nRise in all your splendid might;<\/span>
\nTake the wealth that you are making,<\/span>
\nIt belongs to you by right.<\/span>
\nNo one will for bread be crying,<\/span>
\nWe’ll have freedom, love and health.<\/span>
\nWhen the grand red flag is flying<\/span>
\nIn the Workers’ Commonwealth.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n(1879-1915)<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nWorkers of the World, Awaken <\/span><\/strong><\/span>
