The Way to a Just Peace

The Yanks came posing as a friend
Then they unleashed aggression
To rape, plunder and imprison
Our long suffering Motherland.
Our way to a just peace is to fight
For national liberation

By ceaseless, ruthless use of arms
The ruling classes dominate,
Oppress and exploit the people
Mainly the workers and peasants.
The way to a just peace is to fight
For social liberation

The people must rise up to fight
The imperialists and puppets
Gain the power to free themselves
And build a just and lasting peace

The kind of peace that the imperialists
And the local exploiting classes wish
Is the abject surrender of the people
To the daily violence of exploitation.

The way to a just peace is to end
The violence of exploitation.

The people must rise up to fight
The imperialists and puppets
Gain the power to free themselves
And build a just and lasting peace!
