lyrics

Chorus
Come join with me in the circle of song
The young and the old, the weak and the strong
Singing with one voice though we may speak different tongues
In the circle of song we are one

Verse 1
Some sing of the past, of battles lost and won
Some sing of their dreams, of a new day in the sun
Some sing out for love and some sing just for fun
In the circle of song we are one

Repeat Chorus

Verse 2
Some sing of this land, the country of their birth
Some sing of this land and the beauty of the earth
Some sing of this land for all that it is worth
In the circle of song we are one

Repeat English Chorus or sing French chorus
Viens avec moi, dans ce cercle d’amis
Où jeunes et moins jeunes, où grands et petits
Chantent d’une seule voix, à travers leurs différences
Dans ce cercle d’amis, tous unis.

Verse 3
Each of us must leave this place and go back to our home
Each of us must walk a path that must be walked alone
Each of us will bear the fruit of the seeds that we have sown
In the circle of song we are one

Repeat Chorus

mood of the times and the ties that bind. ... more
