Around the strangers moved, the shouts I felt within
|
New panoramas seen (I loved it as it was).
|
Forests of pylons built, the scaffolding is raised
|
And how the men pursue their worrk
|
They act convinced of freedom.
|
|
Crossed over by the bridge
|
The brook was running ill.
|
We recognised the place - places we knew as children
|
We wept upon the sight, and progress tore our hearts
|
Fences divide the land, homes boxed like rabbit hutches.
|
|
Goodbye to the village
|
Goodbye to the village
|
|
Where soil will not provide, no king and land are one
|
Monopolise the holy ground, all that we hold as sacred
|
No harvest moon shall rise, no valley homestead seen
|
And now the cities never end, and how the cities stretch forever
|
|
And in the morning promise me great times will come again
|
And the homelands in our hearts will never fade away
|
Let the legends promise me the earth shall rise again
|
And homelands in the hearts of men shall never fade away.
|
|
|
Goodbye to the village
|
Goodbye to the village
|
Goodbye to the village
|
Goodbye to the village
|
|
I'll never never see my home
|
I'll never never see my home
|
|
You'll never never see your home
|
You'll never never see your home
|
