Follow well in order, get your weapons ready,
Have you your pistols? Have you your sharp-edged axes?
Pioneers! O pioneers!
For we cannot tarry here,
We must march my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger.
We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend.
Pioneers! O pioneers!
O you youths, Western youths,
So impatient, full of action, full of manly pride and friendship.
Plain I see you Western youths, see you tramping with the foremost.
Pioneers! O pioneers!
