Let there be light where there was darkness, Let there be love where there was hate, Even in the terrors of the night, Sooner or later, comes the day; Let there be joy where there was sorrow, Let there be hope where there was none, And even as your life-blood flowed away, Neda, your heart is living on; People of the world stand up for freedom, Voices call from a distant shore, For the winds of change are blowing stronger, And Evil men will fall, For freedom will not wait anymore; Let there be Spring where there was Winter, Let there be green where there was grey, Even as the Lion seems to sleep, Sooner or later, he will wake; People of the world stand up for freedom, Voices call from a distant shore, For the winds of change are blowing stronger, And Evil men will fall, For freedom will not wait here anymore; Women of the world have died for freedom, Hear them call from a distant shore, For the winds of change are blowing stronger, And Evil men must fall, For freedom will not wait here anymore; People of the world stand up for freedom, Voices call from a distant shore, For the winds of change are blowing stronger, And Evil men will fall; People of the world have died for freedom, Hear them call from a distant shore, For the winds of change are blowing stronger, And Evil men will fall, For freedom will not wait here anymore, People of the world!
