Текст песни How Many Tears (Mark Heard) с переводом

Gunmetal grey for golden rules

White hot steel for the comfort of fools

Molten wills in iron hands

Forge new sons for the Motherland

And how many tears will fall down

How many tears must fall

Hidden mounds in jungle dust

Youthful voices forever lie hushed

Poets and peasants know the truth

But what in the world can one man do

And how many tears must fall down

And how many tears must fall

How many tears will stain this ground

And how many tears must fall

A mother’s eyes ache with her hatred

Her lips they are crippled with fear

She waits for the news that she don’t want to hear

How many tears

How many tears

How many tears must fall down

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Ain’t no funerals

Ain’t no prayers

Ain’t no blood in the Government Square

Reign of terror

True and tried

Dries the eyes before they’ve cried

And how many tears will fall down

And how many tears must fall

How many tears will stain this ground

And how many tears must fall

How many tears

How many tears

How many tears will fall down

How many tears will fall down

How many tears will fall down
