Gather round me, children
There's a story you must hear
Come sit beside me here by the fire
Look upon the faces
Lit gently by the flames
I'll tell you of our loss
And name the ones to blame
We were strong
And we were brave
(We were brave)
Had a world and a way of life
Men died to save
From the east
Came a mighty storm
And thе land built by our fathers
Was no more
Therе was a time when we were many
As the stars up in the sky
A mighty people angels held up high
Though I can't remember
How we came to bend
One day we looked around us
And watched our world end
We were strong
And we were brave
(We were brave)
We had a world and a way of life
Men died to save (men died to save)
From the east
Came a rushing storm
And the land built by our fathers
Was no more
Gather round me, children
There's a story you must hear
Come sit beside me by the fire
(By the fire)
Look upon the faces
Lit gently by the flames
I'll tell you of our loss
And name the ones to blame
(We were strong)
We were strong
And we were brave
Had a world and a way of life
Men died to save
From the east
Came a mighty storm
And the land built by our fathers
Was no more
We were strong
We were brave
Had a world and a way of life
Men died to save
From the east
Came a mighty storm
And the land built by our fathers
Was no more
