[00:00.19](On November 4, 1839, twenty-two Chartist protestors demanding the right to vote were killed when troops defending the Westgate Hotel in Newport, South Wales, opened fire on the crowd)
[00:19.23]On the night-streets of Newport in the month of November
[00:21.60]We were one in the gathering throng
[00:29.10]And we sang as we mustered for our watchword was freedom
[00:36.35]And our music sweet liberty's song
[00:42.01]Chorus
[00:42.16]All over the land
[00:45.44]Hold on to the dream
[00:56.24]Stand your ground
[00:59.87]Stay strong and believe
[01:15.63]For the Great People's Charter we had marched and petitioned
[01:23.06]But our fine words soon wilted like flowers
[01:29.87]So we climbed Mynydd Mawr and we drilled for a rising
[01:39.72]And we marched on to claim what is ours
[02:05.82]Chorus
[02:06.00]But the Westgate was guarded by the guns of the masters
[02:23.57]And their muskets laid waste to our men
[02:31.16]With our leaders transported they believe we are bested
[02:38.72]But the Chartists will rise once again
[02:42.71]Chorus 2
[02:44.16]All over the World
[02:47.97]Hold on to the dream
[02:58.64]Stand your ground
[03:02.33]Stay strong and believe
