I will not fight, I will not stand

For border, nor for any land

I need not know, am not concerned

Too many wars are fought, too many die

Over province, pride, triumphal lie

I will not guard, I will not bar

The stranger landed from afar

They need a home, and wish to settle

Want to work, to show their metal

We can only profit...
