We own the land!
We have a right!
Let's fight!

Our children are dead!
Ours died last night!
Let's fight!

We protect our religion!
Our God says we're right!
Let's fight!

Our fathers and theirs and theirs
have fought and died on this site!
Let's fight!

We've talked 'til we can no more!
We've talked day and night!
Let's fight!

We never will live in peace.
I'm certain that you are right.
Let's fight.

Life without war would be dull.
No war? What a terrible plight!
Let's. . . fight.

Do you see what I see my foe?
I see there's no end in sight.
Well, then, my friend…..
Let's fight.
