This song was written on behalf of the Advance NZ / NZPP movement -
but it is an anthem of freedom and truth for all Kiwis
and all lovers of Aotearoa / New Zealand.
lyrics
ADVANCE NEW ZEALAND
Far from our flora in foreign halls of power
Far from our fauna in foreign halls of power
A future was formed behind closed doors
and it's now the eleventh hour
They would rule the world and remove all rights and freedom
They would muzzle our mouths
and the sound of our speaking and breathing
And these secret foes would assail our coast
and would leave our country bleeding, but...
We will not be shut down
Won't let them snuff the light of liberty out
Standing in truth, we are resolute warriors
We will advance, New Zealand
Line our white cloud with silver
This is our voice, moving in peace and in power
Aotearoa, aa-e, aa-e
We cry out for help together to guard our freeland
Bonding in love together to guard our freeland
Corruption will flee and our land will be free
and the hidden will be revealed and...
We will not be shut down
Won't let them snuff the light of liberty out
Standing in truth, we are resolute warriors
We will advance, New Zealand
Line our white cloud with silver
This is our voice, moving in peace and in power
Aotearoa, aa-e, aa-e
Aotearoa, aa-e, aa-e
We will not be shut down
Won't let them snuff the light of liberty out
Standing in truth, we are resolute warriors
We will advance New Zealand
Line our white cloud with silver
This is our voice, moving in peace and in power
This is our voice, moving in peace and in power
This is our voice, moving in peace and in power
Aotearoa, aa-e, aa-e
Aotearoa, aa-e, aa-e
Aotearoa, aa-e, aa-e
