Lyrics

Boy solo
Non nobis solum
Sed toti mundo nati
Toti mundo nati

Boys' choir
Non nobis solum
Sed toti mundo nati

Chorus
(Ah), ah

Shanty
The air raid siren slices through
A night in 1942
A couple sheltering in the gloom
Know all too well this waiting room
For often they have in the past
Been huddled close against the blast
Of doodle bugs and bombs galore
They can't put up with any more
So it was that I was born
Into this world one summer morning
And breaking through this brand new day
I hear the sound of warning

Chorus
(War, ah)

Shanty
Oh will it all end here?
Or is their future round the corner?
You'll be forgiven if you're down on your knees
What will it be what will it?
What will we be what will we?
What will we see what will we see?

They stay in darkness underground
Until they hear the all clear sound
And weary eyes will search the sky
For any sign of sunlight
For any sign of sunlight

Chorus
Mother and father holding their child
Not knowing what future magic lies inside
We open our hearts
You open the door
To peace and happiness for evermore
