lyrics

He slept beneath the flag
Of the homeland that he never had

And dreamt a young man's dream of revolution

He was brave at the barricades
He was the firebrand who seized the day

It was a young man's dream of revolution

In the taverns the opinions flowed
As freely as the ale and the wine

Young men's dreams of revolution

His was the loudest voice of all
So unafraid to speak his mind

About a young man's dream of revolution

Did you see the vision through his eyes?
Did you see the radiance in his mind?

The young man's dream of revolution

He stood before the crowd and cried
The choice is fight or die

For a young man's dream of revolution

Now he sleeps beneath the flag
Of the homeland that he never had

And dreams a young man's dream of revolution

He was brave at the barricades
He was the firebrand who led the way

To a young man's dream of revolution
