Labor, our life, labor, our life,
Labor, our anthem, labor, our cry.
With labor, ignite fate's star bright,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.
Labor, our anthem, labor, our cry.
With labor, ignite fate's star bright,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.

One hand falters, a hundred are needed,
One hand falters, what can it achieve?
If we live alone, no purpose is seeded,
No purpose we'll weave.
Who falls to labor, from life is bereaved,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.
Labor, our anthem, labor, our cry.
With labor, ignite fate's star bright,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.

If we make a vow, even stones will bloom,
If we make a vow, even stones will bloom.
With courage within, we'll bend the sky's gloom,
We'll break the sky's tomb.
Our own arms are the shield from the storm,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.
Labor, our anthem, labor, our cry.
With labor, ignite fate's star bright,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.

The more you toil, the sweeter the yield,
The more you toil, the sweeter the yield.
Our nation will flourish, its future revealed,
Its future unsealed.
No hunger will linger, a beautiful field,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.
Labor, our anthem, labor, our cry.
With labor, ignite fate's star bright,
Labor, our life, labor, our life.
