Lyrics
When her century ends
Will I count the years
of terror, toil and trepidation
a life consumed by fear
Or will her spirit fly
A laughing smile, a winking eye
Surviving all the inclinations
To dampen and to die
Vera
We hear you
And feel you pass on through
Vera
You'll steel a
A family grateful to you
When her century ends
Will they linger on
The tastes , smells and sounds she offered
Creations now long gone
and will the story tell
How she refused to sell
the soul that kept her body safely
maneuvering
through hell
Vera
We hear you
And feel you pass on through
Vera
You'll steel a
A family grateful to you
When her century ends
Will her voice prevail
Wise, strong and independent
A suffragette’s exhale
And will we save her song
So it can carry on
And flourish as the generations
Ferry it along
Vera
We hear you
And feel you pass on through
Vera
You'll steel a
A family grateful to you
A family grateful for you
A family you live on through
