Текст песни Cry of the Land (Skyclad) с переводом

Vibrant and real I lie

Mantled by the open sky

The wind and waves my lullaby

I am the land

Why do you view me with eyes unable to see

The beauty in all that is pure when it’s left to live free?

So hot the fires within my breast

Rock and steel can’t stand their test

Yet songbirds in my green beard nest

I am the land

That which is so strong and old

Cannot be bought or sold

Mine is the green and gold

Wealth without end

Ruled by the ebb of my oceans

Slaves to the dusk and the dawn

Your petri-dish civilisations

Are buried and born

I watch as you live

With your heads in the sand

Unable to hear the cry of the land

I was once a happy hunting ground

Then one day the eyes of science found

A blue-green planet

Spinning round a shining star

The timeless giver of all life

Offered as a sacrifice

The priceless finds its price

In the greed of man

You bury your fears

And your heads in the sand

So you’ll never hear the cry of the land
