Freedom atlas!
their voices have been heard
o the chains from their feet removed
they no longer will answer to the whip
finally the curse has been broken
life on the estate will remain a dream
never to be whispered and repeat

where sweat and blood of slavery lie

Children of Africa for too long
tortured and bruised by cruel
slavemaster's without any conscience
not even to listen to their cry
suffered the treachery and agony
without given a chance to be heard
of their terrible plight to burn
in the sun with broken hearts

O the God's from heaven
must have awaken by the sounds of fear

the spell of darkness will take over the canefield
where once barefooted the slaves walk

To a new beginning they will rise

a world of imagination to build on their own

to turn their backs from wicked and shallow minds

O mother Africa this bondage has been broken
lead us to walk the path of righteousness
and give us faith to heal our wounds
