AmWake alone in the hills
With the wind in your face
It feels good to be proud
And be free and a race
That is Gpart of a clan
And to lDive on highlands
And the Amair that you breathe
So pure and so clean
When alGone on the hDills
With the Fwind in your Chair
With a lGonging to Dfeel
Just to be Amfree
AmIs it right to believe
In the need to be free
It's a time when you die
And without asking why
Can't you Gsee what they do
They are grDinding us down
They are Amtaking our land
That belongs to the clans
Not alGone with a drDeam
Just wFant to be frCee
With a nGeed to belDong
I am a clAmansman

AmIt's a time wrought with fear
It's a land wrought with change
Ancestors could hear
What is happening now
They would tGurn in their graves
They would aDll be ashamed
That the lAmand of the free
Has been written in chains
And I Gknow what I Dwant
When the Ftiming is Cright
Then I'll Gtake what is Dmine
I am the Amclansman
AmAnd I swear to defend
And we'll fight to the end
And I swear that I'll never
Be taken alive
And I Gknow that we'll stand
And we'll Ffight for our land
And I Amswear that my bairns Will be born free
And I Gknow what I Dwant
When the Ftiming is Cright
Then I'll Gtake what is Dmine
I am the Amclansman
