She was bathed in falling snow flakes
While I was baptised in her lakes
I was taught by my fathers' hand
'Bout the rules of this land

How we are born to fight!

We who never smile nor laugh
Know those things are never gonna last
We know that in our hearts
How everything will fall apart

Apart! Fall apart!

Never bow down
Never kneel
Never surrender
Never retreat

How we are born to fight!
