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
