Song Of Bangladesh

Diamonds专辑

  • 作曲 : Joan Baez
    (Words and Music by Joan Baez)
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    When the sun sinks in the west
    Die a million people of the Bangladesh
    The story of Bangladesh
    Is an ancient one again made fresh
    By blind men who carry out commands
    Which flow out of the laws upon which nation stands
    Which is to sacrifice a people for a land
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    When the sun sinks in the west
    Die a million people of the Bangladesh
    Once again we stand aside
    And watch the families crucified
    See a teenage mother's vacant eyes
    As she watches her feeble baby try
    To fight the monsoon rains and the cholera flies
    And the students at the university
    Asleep at night quite peacefully
    The soldiers came and shot them in their beds
    And terror took the dorm awakening shrieks of dread
    And silent frozen forms and pillows drenched in red
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    When the sun sinks in the west
    Die a million people of the Bangladesh
    Did you read about the army officer's plea
    For donor's blood? It was given willingly
    By boys who took the needles in their veins
    And from their bodies every drop of blood was drained
    No time to comprehend and there was little pain
    And so the story of Bangladesh
    Is an ancient one again made fresh
    By all who carry out commands
    Which flow out of the laws upon which nations stand
    Which say to sacrifice a people for a land
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    Bangladesh, Bangladesh
    When the sun sinks in the west
    Die a million people of the Bangladesh
