The Internationale • http: //folk. ntnu. no/makarov/te mporary_url_20070929 kldcg/i nternationale-enthe_new_singers. mp 3 • Arise, you prisoners of starvation! Arise, you wretched of the earth! For justice thunders condemnation: A better world's in birth! No more tradition's chains shall bind us, Arise you slaves, no more in thrall! The earth shall rise on new foundations: We have been nought, we shall be all! 'Tis the final conflict, Let each stand in his place. The international soviet Shall be the human race 'Tis the final conflict, Let each stand in his place. The international Soviet Shall be the human race • We want no condescending saviors To rule us from their judgment hall, We workers ask not for their favors Let us consult for all: To make thief disgorge his booty To free the spirit from its cell, We must ourselves decide our duty, We must decide, and do it well. 'Tis the final conflict, Let each stand in his place. The international soviet Shall be the human race 'Tis the final conflict, Let each stand in his place. The international working class Shall be the human race
