Arise, ye workers from your slumbers,
Arise, ye prisoners of want!
For reason in revolt now thunders,
And at last ends the age of cant!
Now away with all your superstitions,
Servile masses, arise, arise!
We ll change henceforth the old traditions
And spurn the dust to win the prize!

	So then, comrades, come rally,
	And the last fight let us face.
	The Internationale
	Unites the human race.
	So then, comrades, come rally,
	And the last fight let us face.
	The Internationale
	Unites the human race.

No more deluded by reaction,
On tyrants only we’ll wait war!
The soldiers too will take strike action,
They’ll break their ranks and fight no more!
And if those cannibals keep trying
To sacrifice us to their pride,
They soon will see the bullets flying,
We’ll shoot the generals on our own side.

	So then, comrades, come rally,
	And the last fight let us face.
	The Internationale
	Unites the human race.
	So then, comrades, come rally,
	And the last fight let us face.
	The Internationale
	Unites the human race.

No Saviour from above delivers,
No faith have we in prince or peer.
Our own right hand the chains must shiver,
Chains of hatred, greed and fear.
And e er the thieves will out with their booty,
And give to all a happier lot.
Each at the forge must do his duty,
And we ll strike while the iron s hot!

	So then, comrades, come rally,
	And the last fight let us face.
	The Internationale
	Unites the human race.
	So then, comrades, come rally,
	And the last fight let us face.
	The Internationale
	Unites the human race.
