- MI SI
In sixteen forty nine to St George's Hill
LA MI a ragged band they called the Diggers came to show the peoples'
will
MI SIthey defied the Landlords, they defied the laws
LA SI MIthey were the dispossessed, reclaiming what was theirs
MI SI"we come in peace" they said, to dig and sow
- LA MI
we come to work the lands in common and to make the wastegrounds
grow
- MI SI
this earth divided, we will make whole
LA SI MI so it will be a common treasury for all
- MI SI
the sin of property, we do disdain
LA MI no man has any right to buy and sell the earth for private gain
MI SIby theft and murder they took the land
- LA SI MI
now everywhere the walls spring up at their command
MI SIthey make the laws to chain us well
- LA MI
the clergy dazzle us with heaven or they damn us into hell
MI SI we will not worship the god they serve
LA SI MIthe god of greed who feeds the rich while poor man starve
MI SIwe work, we eat together we need no swords
LA MIwe will not bow to the masters or pay rent to the lords
- MI SI
we are free men, though we are poor
LA SI MI you diggers all stand up for glory stand up now
- MI SI
from the men of property, the orders came
LA MI they sent the hired men and troopers to wipe out the Diggers'
claim
MI SItear down their cottages, destroy their corn
LA SI MIthey were dispersed, but still the vision lingers on
MI SIyou poor take courage, you rich take care
LA MIthis earth was made a common treasury for everyone to share
- MI SI
all things in common, all people one
LA SI MI we come in peace, the orders came to cut them down
