Just like sheep, the people will follow
Just like sheep, they obey all the laws they detest
But she would rather defy them instead
And she shelters the weak from
And she's the finder of lost children
And no one remembers her name
Irena, how can I forget?
You are the ghetto angel
Irena Sendler, I remember you
And so, she asked herself, "How can I get them out tonight
Across the border, far away from these soldiers?"
"Quiet, child, we're almost there
This game of hide-and-seek we play will soon be over"
Irena, how can I forget?
You are the ghetto angel
Irena Sendler, I remember you
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
And so, I sing this song for her
Irena, ghetto angel
Irena Sendler, I remember you
Oh-whoa, oh-whoa
