House of Exile

Freedom fighter standing on a mountain in a foreign country

Trying to send a message to his people back in the ghetto

He had a home one time, love of a girl

But he left that behind

Oh, yes, I can hear him clearly as he whispers in the air

His voice came out loud and clear

All he asked for was a prayer and as he turns to walk away

He said

I'm still here in the house of exile

For the love of the nation

Sun went down on the mountain, birds flew back to their hiding places

Leaving him standing there like a telephone pole

In the still of the night you and I dream

Dreaming of Romeo and Juliet

All he dreams about is the freedom of the nation

When every man will be equal in the eyes of the law

As he closes his eyes for the last time

He said again

I'm still here in the house of exile

For the love of the nation

I'm still here in the house of exile

For the love of the nation

I'm still here in the house of exile

For the love of the nation
