There is no meaning of life?
You say: We are born and die,
but is there a goal to it all,
a purpose in everything we do?
I know a meaning of life.
It is that you do your duty
in large and small to your class -
in deed, in thought and poetry.
It is that you never give after
for promise of laurel wreath and wages,
but defiantly and hateful fight
for justice and peace for your son.
Tues yourself, you have no hope.
Happiness is not for you.
For the future generations you shall open
a better and brighter way.
I know a meaning of life.
It is in the army of the nameless
to fight for the working class
with thought and song and rifle.
I know the meaning of life.
It is in the army of the nameless
to fight for the working class
with thought and song and rifle.
with thought and song and rifle!
