Uprising

Warsaw rise!

Do you remember when
When the nazis forced their rule on Poland?
1939
And the allies turned away
From the underground
Rose a hope of freedom as a whisper
City in despair
But they never lost their faith

Women, men and children fight
They were dying side by side
And the blood they shed
Upon the streets was a sacrifice willingly paid

Warsaw, city at war
Voices from underground
Whispers of freedom
1944
Help that never came
Calling:
"Warsaw, city at war!"
Voices from underground
Whispers of freedom
Rise up and hear the call
History calling to you:
"Warszawo walcz!"

Spirit, soul and heart
In accordance with the old traditions
1944
Still the allies turn away
Fighting street to street
In a time of hope and desperation
Did it on their own
And they never lost their faith

Women, men and children fight
They were dying side by side
And the blood they shed
Upon the streets was a sacrifice willingly paid

Warsaw, city at war
Voices from underground
Whispers of freedom
1944
Help that never came
Calling:
"Warsaw, city at war!"
Voices from underground
Whispers of freedom
Rise up and hear the call
History calling to you:
"Warszawo walcz!"

All the streetlights
In the city
Broken many years ago
Break the curfew
Hide in sewers
Warsaw, it's time to rise now!
