My father says I cannot marry you Says he forbids me Says he will ship me back to his land My mother says shame on you For trying to use me Don’t you know she worries that I’ll forget her land
My brother and my sister they’re with me They say it don’t matter As long as I remember my identity
So if you promise you’ll never let me forget my land I will promise I’ll never let you forget your land
If what you said the other day is true then please forgive me We don’t need to worry that we’ll forget our land We will hop a train, we will fly a plane, we will walk all day Through every country We don’t need to worry, worry, worry if this world is our land Oh no no no
