So how did we do it
Stateless we were it
New Hebrides was the Colony
oppression to all an any
who stood for my countries
freedom

we fought against the two giants
British and France

Nowadays i enjoys the independence
i enjoy my dads stories of the protest, so tense
When the Giants don't give a dime dollar or cent
for the freedom of my elders and their descendants
i asked my dad what was the secret
he said its Unity but that's no secret
He said the people were hungry for freedom
And hunger spread to cultural villages and chiefdom's
he said that with pride and tears in his eyes
i took of my hat as the guns go blazing
twenty one gun salute for the freedom fighters
Long Live Vanuatu
7In two days time my country is celebrating 37 years of Independence
Since July 30th 1980
