Here we are...
Hello Friend!
(Peggy Seeger) Chorus:
Hello, friend!
I see you are a stranger
Where do you come from?
Hello friend!
Something in your eyes
Reminds me of the sun
And the Northern Lights are dim
Against the colour of your skin
Hello friend!
I'm glad that you could come
- And when you talk,
I seem to hear the echoes
Of the places you have been
When you walk
Colours all around you
Fluttering in the wind
And when I listen to your song
I feel you really do belong
You're the stranger,
The one who just came in
Chorus:
- And can you find
New friends to help you
Can you make a living here?
Do you mind
The smoke and grime around you
On a morning loud and clear
Or did your troubles just begin
With the colour of your skin?
Never mind
I hope you're going to stay
Chorus:
- Hello friend!
All of us are strangers
In this green and pleasant land
Once again
Battle ramps are forming
And we need a brother's hand
Yours the fear, and ours the shame
But our God is just the same
In the end
This will be our native land
Chorus:
