{oi va voi}'nin 2004 yılında yayınlanan ''laughter through tears'' albümünün ilk ve en güzel parçası...
refugee blues var bir de w. h. auden amcanın:
say this city has ten million souls,
some are living in mansions, some are living in holes:
yet there's no place for us, my dear, yet there's no place
for us.
once we had a country and we thought it fair,
look in the atlas and you'll find it there:
we cannot go there now, my dear, we cannot go there
now.
ın the village churchyard there grows an old yew,
every spring it blossoms anew;
old passports can't do that, my dear, old passports can't
do that.
the consul banged the table and said:
"ıf you've got no passport you're officially dead";
but we are still alive, my dear, but we are still alive.
went to a committee; they offered me a chair;
asked me politely to return next year:
but where shall we go today, my dear, but where shall we
go today?
came to a public meeting; the speaker got up and said:
"ıf we let them in, they will steal our daily bread";
he was talking of you and me, my dear, he was talking of
you and me.
thought ı heard the thunder rumbling in the sky;
ıt was hitler over europe, saying: "they must die";
we were in his mind, my dear, we were in his mind.
saw a poodle in a jacket fastened with a pin,
saw a door opened and a cat let in:
but they weren't german jews, my dear, but they weren't
german jews.
went down to the harbour and stood upon the quay,
saw the fish swimming as if they were free:
only ten feet away, my dear, only ten feet away.
walked through a wood, saw the birds in the trees;
they had no politicians and sang at their ease:
they weren't the human race, my dear, they weren't the
human race.
dreamed ı saw a building with a thousand floors,
a thousand windows and a thousand doors;
not one of them was ours, my dear, not one of them was
ours.
stood on a great plain in the falling snow;
ten thousand soldiers marched to and fro:
looking for you and me, my dear, looking for you and
me.
insana gerçekten mülteci hissi veren,{viento}'nun bana daha bir sevdirdiği {oi va voi}'nin süper şarkısı.
you ask me
why it is ı come to you
when someone else is just as good
ı asked them but they said the same
didn't even ask my name
explain to me
just what it is you have to lose
take a minute in my shoes
don't you feel like you've paid your dues
already
ı'll show you
that all our fates are so entwined
don't lose your faith in humankind
just don't forget my state of mind
ıs fragile
together
we can enjoy the taste of dignity
as long as you believe in me
ı'll show you my reality
ı've seen a few
you ask me
why it is ı come to you
when someone else is just as good
ı asked them but they said the same
didn't even ask my name
there's another refugee
there's another refugee
oh oh there's another refugee
oh oh there's another refugee
not : şarkı sözleri {dreamer}'dan araktır.
