- 英文原文
When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run,
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun;
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one,
But the union makes us strong.
(Chorus)
It is we who plowed the prairies; built the cities where they trade;
Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of railroad laid;
Now we stand outcast and starving midst the wonders we have made;
But the union makes us strong.
(Chorus)
They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn,
But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn.
We can break their haughty power, gain our freedom when we learn
That the union makes us strong.
(Chorus)
In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold,
Greater than the might of armies, multiplied a thousand-fold.
We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
For the union makes us strong.
(Chorus)
Chorus:
Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
For the union makes us strong.

- 中文译文
当成立工会的曙光照在工人的胸膛，
它将激发出那令人难以置信的力量，
虽然每个人的力量都掀不起风和浪，
但是工会给我力量。
（副歌）
我们开垦牧场建起城市和楼房，
我们铺设铁路连接座座矿山和工厂，
我们如今却要徘徊其间忍受着饥荒，
但是工会给我力量。
（副歌）
他们从不劳动却能够腰缠万贯，
但是离开我们双手世界将陷入黑暗，
我们终将重获自由把他们全都推翻，
只要工会给我力量。
（副歌）
我们手中的力量强过他们的金矿，
强过千军万马强过万吨梯恩梯当量，[注 1]
我们将建立新的世界在这片废墟上，
只因工会给我力量。
（副歌）
副歌：
团结一致直到永远，
团结一致直到永远，
团结一致直到永远，
因为工会给我力量！[注 2]
