Текст песни I Wanna Go Home (David Rovics) с переводом

I was born a refugee

And I don’t know if I’ll ever see

The old farmhouse I’ve heard about

But it’s where I belong, there is no doubt

'Cause my whole family is from that farm

And we never did nobody harm

And if you’re confused by what you’ve heard

Let me boil it down to a single word

(Chorus)

I wanna go home…

And I have heard my grandpa say

That on the street most every day

The neighbors' kids would kick a ball

With my dad when he was small

We were Christians, they were Jews

But it was no big deal, religious views

So it was strange when at the point of a gun

Across the river we had to run

(Chorus)

We had dabkeh, we had songs

And we all knew where we belonged

We grew crops, life was good

There in the land where Jesus stood

Now we’re scattered everywhere

But there’s no peace anywhere

I’m just searching for some kind of sign

For some way back to Palestine

(Chorus)
