The new dawn has risen
risen with the sun
I saw it in the children's eyes
a brand new revolution
they're the beginning
they're the present
and they are the past
they're history
and the future
flows in their veins
they're my new generals
they resist with their stones
in Palestine
face the baton charge
in Johannesburg
they fight like heroes
agaist the invaders
in Ireland
see them dancing on the ruins
in the days engraved with blood
they're my new generals
they're the beginning
they're the present
and they are the past
they're history
and the future
flows in their veins
they're my new generals
