Lyrics
Hurrah for the West, the glorious West,

The land of the free and the loyal!

Her name shall ring, and her posterity shall sing,

of her honour, fame, and her glory!

For the skies above have smil'd in their love,

o'er our dear nation so noble,

She rises in her might to defend the right,

against the foe men invading.

''Sons of the West, arise! Arise!'',

For never shall fall upon her,

The land we love all of our Earth above,

One stain of shameful dishonour.

''Hurrah for the West! The gallant West!'',

With her great heart proudly beating,

she harks the sound of Freedom's call,

For the cause she shall ne'er retreat!

And her sons on the field, for the love of their mother,

they fight on with no surrender,

onwards they fight, for their freedom and rights,

and for the honour of their land!

''Sons of the West, arise! Arise!'',

For never shall fall upon her,

The land we love all of our Earth above,

One stain of shameful dishonour.

No Eastern tyrant hand shall blemish our land,

to the breeze we raise Freedom's banner!

As her Crimson Bars o'er our lands flutter,

o'er the main and o'er the oceans

Through dale and o'er fell, the battle cry shall awake

"Confederacy and Liberty!"

''Hurrah for the West! The noble West!''

The land of Freedom and Glory!,

''Sons of the West, arise! Arise!'',

For never shall fall upon her,

The land we love all of our Earth above,

One stain of shameful dishonour.
