Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes.
Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade Is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free!
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes.
Will you give all you can give?
So that our banner may advance?
Some will fall and some will live,
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France!
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes.
倫敦過百名香港人於倫敦多個地鐵沿線快閃唱歌聲援港人。
「Free Hong Kong, Democracy Now!」、「香港加油！」，這是遠在英國倫敦過百名香港人，於倫敦地鐵沿線進行快閃唱歌活動時，高叫口號聲援為自由抗爭的香港人，《孤星淚》填詞人家屬亦到場為港人打氣。
一群居英港人於Facebook專版「Support Hong Kong from London」，周日（14日）自發於倫敦地鐵沿線進行快閃唱歌活動「Sing for Hong Kong」，分別在倫敦「歐洲之星」列車終點的聖潘克拉斯國際車站（St Pancras International）、皮卡迪利圓環站（Piccadilly Circus）和南肯辛頓站（South Kensington）進行。唱出多首歌曲，包括約翰連儂的《Imagine》，和著名音樂劇《孤星淚》的代表作《Do You Hear the People Sing?》及其廣東話版《問誰未發聲》。
現年93歲的《孤星淚》《Do You Hear the People Sing?》填詞人克西茨默（Herbert Kretzmer）雖然身在醫院不能出席，但其妻Sybil Sever和孫兒Benjamin代為出席活動，現身南肯辛頓站，參與快閃唱歌，為香港抗爭者打氣。Sybil Sever表示丈夫非常希望能到現場，但無奈身體抱恙。他指，克西茨默目前仍在醫院休養，但他精神上與他們同在，百分百支持香港抗爭者，深信正義定能戰勝。更轉達克西茨默感到很榮幸香港人選擇了《Do You Hear the People Sing?》一曲以表達心聲。她更將活動過程拍下會與丈夫分享。
