CALLADA

Sade - pearls

Powered by mp3ye.eu

Me quedo callada

cuando me insultan

Y quieren escupirme

a la cara

Porque no es

el momento

No como ni duermo

Por este eterno lamento

Ver la viciosa crueldad

Que nos afecta a los

Que somos negros

Aunque respire mi último

Aliento yo no renunciaré

De embarcar esta eterna

Batalla

Para que la niña de trenzas

Y los ojos de almendras

Jamás tenga que quedarse

Callada

Gritarle al mundo entero

Del mal que se la hace

A una raza

Que solo soñó

un dia regresar

a su casa.

Nadie se imagina

Lo que es estar encadenado

Y violado tanto físicamente

como espiritualmente;

mientras tanto nadie

respeta tus derechos

donde dia o noche eres torturado

Mientras arrastras los

Pies en el lodo.

Lyrics:

There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
This is how she's dying
She's dyin' to survive
Don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave

She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Hurts like brand new shoes

There is a woman in Somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone
Long as afternoon shadows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives in a world she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Hurts like brand new shoes
