Workers of the World Unite,
Tune—"Beulali Land." Oh, ye, who look through longing eyes To mark fair Freedom's Sun arise. Know that your hop© unfilled must be Till Labour stand in unity. CHOBTJS : Then Workers < the World unite, Or branded be as craven quite; Soon shall yoiu , eyes behold the light Awake! Arise! Up, in your might! Awake! Arise! TJp, in your might! Oh Workers of the World unite. For others you the- mines explore. And rob the ocean of its store. For others you the forests clear. Till smiling sweet the land appear.
A Song for the N.Z. Federation of Labor.
The fields are waving rich with grain. And, 10, the harvest cornea amain; fahall others reap where you have sown? Up. Workers, up, and claim your own. Vonr chains unloosed, a world will gain. And hanished aye he grief and pain, while hope, and health, and happiness. Your days on earth shall ever bless. From North and South, from East and West, They come, the bravest and the best; From mine and factory, forge and field, In Demos' Cause the sword to* wield. The creeds that held you long in thrall. The boundaries fixed by knaves shall fall, When, Yellow, Brown, and Black, and White, The Workers of the World unite,.
