The Workers
How lovely are the workers,
like the stars,
working night and day.
How joyful are the workers,
let's dance with them.
In their loom of hopes,
like the stars,
new life flourishes.
How joyful are the workers,
let's dance with them.
Running at dawn,
like the stars,
aprons flying,
How joyful are the workers,
let's dance with them.
This is how they start the day,
like the stars,
greeting it with work.
How joyful are the workers,
let's dance with them.
If I knew that singing,
like the stars,
could bring you some relief.
How joyful are the workers,
let's dance with them.
I would like to leave my song,
like the stars,
in your hands of spinner.
How joyful are the workers,
let's dance with them.
