- In plenty and in time of need
- When this fair land was young
- Our brave forefathers sowed the seed
- From which our pride is sprung,
- A pride that makes no wanton boast
- Of what it has withstood
- That binds our hearts from coast to coast -
- The pride of nationhood.
- Chorus:
- We loyal sons and daughters all
- Do hereby make it known
- These fields and hills beyond recall
- Are now our very own.
- We write our names on history's page
- With expectations great,
- Strict guardians of our heritage,
- Firm craftsmen of our fate.
- The Lord has been the people's guide
- For past three hundred years.
- With him still on the people's side
- We have no doubts or fears.
- Upward and onward we shall go,
- Inspired, exulting, free,
- And greater will our nation grow
- In strength and unity.
- Chorus:
- We loyal sons and daughters all
- Do hereby make it known
- These fields and hills beyond recall
- Are now our very own.
- We write our names on history's page
- With expectations great,
- Strict guardians of our heritage,
- Firm craftsmen of our fate.
| - In plentiful years and in years of need
- At the dawn of our wonderful land
- Our brave ancestors sowed seeds,
- Of which our pride sprouted
- Which should not be boasted
- What I had to go through
- Connecting our hearts from coast to coast
- Pride in our country.
- Chorus :
- We faithful children, let's all be together
- Remember it now
- That these fields and hills are behind us -
- All this is our land.
- We put our names in history
- In the name of great hope,
- We keep our inheritance severely
- We persistently create our own destiny.
