Текст песни Five Sisters (Martyn Joseph) с переводом

This is not the place for a battle cry

This is no rally, this will be the funeral

Of five sisters' lives

We walk and we breathe but we are not animals

But you treat us though we are

I never fired a rocket sir

But you may have pushed me too far

And every day I watch them growing

And in the night I watch them breathe

But it only takes a second sir

And five sisters gone

Five sisters gone

The propaganda of all the leaders

Who make their speeches, heads held high

I want them standing by this graveside

Where five sisters lie

And every day I watch them growing

And in the night I watch them breathe

But it only takes a second sir

And five sisters gone

Five sisters gone

Take away a man’s water

And you bloat upon his land

You build a mighty wall around him

What’s so hard to understand?

You make his children walk in squalor

With only night stars for a view

And the rage inside that helplessness

Someday comes back at you

But this is not the place for words of vengeance

This is not the place for the battle cry

This is no rally, this will be the funeral

Of five sisters' lives

And every day I watch them growing

And in the night I watch them breathe

But it only takes a second sir

And five sisters

And every day I watch them growing

And in the night I watch them breathe

But it only takes a second sir

And five sisters gone

Five sisters gone

One day I’ll buy myself a rocket

And I will aim it towards the sky

And I will celebrate in the light of a thousand colours

Some peace and justice in our time

Some peace and justice in our time

For five sisters

It’ll be too late for my five daughters
