Immigrant Song

Together they come

from the land of the night

where the stars can't shine

where no birds take flight

Together they run

towards an outreached hand

with a promise of a life

with no motives or plans

Together they dance

with joy to the skies

to relish in their faith

to bring smiles to their eyes

Together they sleep

as their dreams come alive

with hopeful futures

with legacies that thrive

Together they suffer

to the tune of hard labor

when their hopes are not met

when their dreams begin to waver

Yet they manage day to day

for with their families, they are together

for a fortune one day

till that day becomes forever.
