Lyrics of the song in this video in English and Dutch:

English:

For the one in a hidden corner
For the one with the mist up window
For the one who thought he was alone
Must know now, we belong together

For the one with the closed book
For the one with the forgotten names
For the one who fruitlessly searched
Must know now, we belong together

Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
But not without us

For the one with the sleepless nights
For the one who can't confirm luck
For the one who is only waiting
Must know now, we belong together

For the one with his exaggerated pride
In his riskyless high tower
On his riskyless high cliff
Must know now, that was not the reason for his birth

Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Not without us

For the one who is open-faced
For the one with the naked body
For the one in the white light
For the one who knows, we come together

Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work and admire
Not without us

Not without us (15x)

Nederlands:

Voor degene in een schuilhoek achter glas
Voor degene met de dichtbeslagen ramen
Voor degene die dacht dat-ie alleen was
Moet nu weten, we zijn allemaal samen

Voor degene met `t dichtgeslagen boek
Voor degene met de snelvergeten namen
Voor degene die `t vruchteloze zoeken
Moet nu weten, we zijn allemaal samen

Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Niet zonder ons

Voor degene met de slapeloze nacht
Voor degene die `t geluk niet kan beamen
Voor degene die niets doet, die alleen maar wacht
Moet nu weten, we zijn allemaal samen

Voor degene met z`n mateloze trots
In z`n risicoloze hoge toren
Op z`n risicoloze hoge rots
Moet nu weten, zo zijn we niet geboren

Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Niet zonder ons

Voor degene met `t open gezicht
Voor degene met `t naakte lichaam
Voor degene in `t witte licht
Voor degene die weet, we komen samen

Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Zing, vecht, huil, bid, lach, werk en bewonder
Niet zonder ons

Niet zonder ons (15x)
