We stood our ground and fought so many years of war
A nation like ours was never known before
We stood against the world for what we believe was right
A symbol of truth, our beloved green and white

We are young
We are old
Had our say
Said it bold

Rhodesians of Rhodesia until the tide was turned
Now we're Rhodesians of the world

On far distant shores
Our children run free
We teach them the way that we want them to be
Shape like rhodesians, right to the soul
Their flags may be new but their standards are old

We are young
We are old
Had our say
Said it bold

Rhodesians of Rhodesia until the tide was turned
Now we're Rhodesians of the world

On the long road of torture we have travelled
Helping those who have stumbled on the way
Though we're scattered somehow we're bonded
By a spirit that is living still today

We are young
We are old
Had our say
Said it bold

Rhodesians of Rhodesia until the tide was turned
Now we're Rhodesians of the world

We are young (We are young)
We are old (We are old)
Had our say (Had our say)
Said it bold

Rhodesians of Rhodesia until the tide was turned
Now we're Rhodesians of the world

We are young (We are young)
We are old (We are old)
Had our say (Had our say)
Said it bold

Rhodesians of Rhodesia until the tide was turned
Now we're Rhodesians of the world
