On the Occasion of the
One World Festival

Dorchester (Kings Playing Field) October 2009




   OYEZ!              OYEZ!              OYEZ!






Dorchester, the County town, of which we're really proud;

Its praises I will gladly sing, as crier, really loud.

But when an ugly incident picks on one undefended,

Then we will do all we need to do to see such practice ended.

So when Khalique was beaten up, because his skin was brown,


Twas time to broadcast facts and truths and put the bigots down.

For we all share the same one world - we've all the right to live,

And we shall fight for what is right till we've no more to give!

Today let's celebrate in Dorch. All nations, colours, creeds

And Vow to treat as equals all those with common needs.

So here's to our town, the County town, let it boldly lead the way

To a fairer world, a festive world where justice holds full sway.

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN
