Текст песни Journey of a Thousand Miles (The Go Set) с переводом

Two baby boys, born on an island far to the north

A life determined by skin, that was as brown as the earth

Stolen away, from a mothers who’s cries

Can be heard by a nation to this day

All the lies, places and faces were all lost in time

All those lies, and the river of tears those mothers had cried

Remembering the past, dreaming of the future

But living for today, living for

The Journey of a thousand miles begins with

Just one step, the Journey of a thousand miles

Begins with just one step

The first was raised on a farm, the work was hard and the times were tough

But grew there a man, six foot tall and a strong pair of hands

And tailor made shoes, with a four hour trip to the city each june

For a size fourteen is the sound, of a man who’s feet are firmly set on the

ground

So a letter came one day, that the mother they never knew

Had fallen I’ll and passed away

But with that letter came the news,

That many miles to the west he had a twin brother

So much had been found, and so much had been lost

So he set out on a Thursday, just one huge foot in front of the other

It was a journey of a thousand miles — to find a brother

And after a month of walking, of just one foot in front of the other

He stood there, and they looked at each other

And they knew. It was like looking into a mirror

And they embraced, like brothers do

They talked, and they ate

So the next day, they went and bought two pairs

Of those brown boots for the winter

And every year in June they meet on that day

And these days they bring their families

And they get those brown boots together,

For they are a family of their own

They know where they come from,

And they sort of know where they’re going

That journey of a thousand miles that began

With just one huge step…

Remembering the past, dreaming of the future

But living for today, living for

The Journey of a thousand miles begins with

Just one step, the Journey of a thousand miles

Begins with just one step
