John Tams, 2000
Bound together through the land
Keep the spirit keep the way
Brothers sisters make a stand
Unity will win the day
Raise your banners high
Strength to strength and line by line
Unity must never die
Raise your banners high
Those who stand against all strife
Those who stand for liberty
Fight to win a better life
Fight to keep the future free
Though the struggle brings you pain.
Though the struggle brings you tears.
Ours will be the final gain.
We shall hear the victory cheers!
Additional verses by Ecopella members:
Coal seam gas is evil stuff
It poisons water farms and towns.
We're here to say we've had enough.
We're going to close those gas wells down!
We'll resist Adani's greed
We'll protect the Gallilee.
Keep the reef pollution free.
Expose their lies for all to see!
Refugees fled from their land
Left persecution, war and fear
Sing out loud and make a stand!
Refugees are welcome here!
