Paroles de Solidarity Forever
Pete Seeger6798
When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood
Shall run,
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun;
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength
Of one,
But the union makes us strong.
Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
For the union makes us strong.
Is there aught we hold in common with the greedy parasite,
Who would lash us into serfdom and would crush us with his
Might?
Is there anything left to us but to organize and fight?
For the union makes us strong.
It is we who plowed the prairies; built the cities where
They trade;
Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of
Railroad laid;
Now we stand outcast and starving midst the wonders we have
Made;
But the union makes us strong.
All the world that's owned by idle drones is ours and ours
Alone.
We have laid the wide foundations; built it skyward stone by
Stone.
It is ours, not to slave in, but to master and to own.
While the union makes us strong.
They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to
Earn,
But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can
Turn.
We can break their haughty power, gain our freedom when we
Learn
That the union makes us strong.
In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded
Gold,
Greater than the might of armies, magnified a thousand-fold.
We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
For the union makes us strong.
