One hundred years
Still our tongue's1on the roadStill our spirit's on a roll
Rocky paths and roads
Unbroken fires and waters
Steel necks and necklaces
Ref:
For one hundred years
storms have ravaged the land
but it still lasts
For one hundred years
the land has restored itself
to rise again
The earth turns gold with fire
Limestone's our woods again
Rocky paths and roads
Unbroken fires and waters
Steel necks and necklaces
Ref:
For one hundred years
storms have ravaged the land
but it still lasts
For one hundred years
the land has restored itself
to rise again
When clouds are gloomy
The sky is blue
When damp edge of the field is black
will you stay for a while
or wait for a white ship
that takes you away?
For one hundred years
storms have ravaged
For one hundred years
it has restored itself
Ref:
For one hundred years
the land has restored itself
but it still lasts
For one hundred years
the land has restored itself
to rise again
For one hundred years
the land has restored itself
to rise again
For one hundred years
the land has restored itself
to rise again
