Break your chains and break your shackles
Rise up now and break your shackles

Till we march a thousand strong

Sitting in his halls of stone

Original song 'Thaney' by Karine Polwart. Words by Jude.

Rise up now and break your shackles Join us as we march along Sister side by side with brother Till we march ten thousand strong I shall have no lord and master Sitting in his halls of stone Sow no corn and reap no harvest But for land that's ours alone

Rise up now and break your shackles Join us as we march along Sister side by side with brother Till we march ten thousand strong I shall wear no leash and collar I shall be no rich man's hound Let the scraps from off his table Lie uneaten on the ground

Rise up now and break your shackles Join us as we march along Sister side by side with brother Till we march ten thousand strong Never more we'll bow and curtsy  Never more we'll bend the knee  Ours will be a bond of equals Forged in trust and loyalty

Rise up now and break your shackles Join us as we march along Sister side by side with brother Till we march ten thousand strong You who serve a cruel master You who long to be set free Take the yoke from off your shoulders Rise up now and follow me

Rise up now and break your shackles Join us as we march along Sister side by side with brother Till we march ten thousand strong Raise your head and raise the banner Fall in now behind the drum Foes shall quail and tyrants tremble As they hear the Marchers come
