Oh, some do say the kingdom
Repays our loyalty
And some would bid the crown adieu
Before our unity
Some men make Magna Carta
That charter on the wall
But did some marks in martyr's blood make agents of us all?
For crown along with pauper
Must face the law's command
But there's a law beneath our feet
And that's the law of land
Oh, can it be our nature
To set all creatures free?
To cut the wire that bounds their hair
And gain her liberty
That other shattered kingdom
Does fade before our force
With the death of young who hide among the heather and the gorse
With the death of hare and tarrier
The mob against the gun
And the song you hear that makes you fear is her rebellion
Our head in hawk's dominion
Our feet on common ground
The rosemary and the willow tree do twine our hearts around
For crown along with pauper
Must face the law's command
But there's a law beneath our feet
And that's the law of land
It's the law of sky and seabed
Uniting great and small
Like bees alive all in one hive
And that shall feed us all
It's the law of sky and seabed
Uniting great and small
Like bees alive all in one hive
And that shall feed us all
Like bees alive all in one hive
And that shall feed us all
