Текст песни Locust Season (Beautiful Nubia and the Roots Renaissance Band) с переводом

You know that many of us, we miss those days of

harmony

And we’ll like to see them again

You know that many of us, we miss those days of

innocence

And we’ll like to see them again

Tell me where are you now Victor Banjo?

We look to the sky and the stars are gone

Only vultures feeding off the backs of the poor, the

weak and the people’s frustration

Tell me, where have you gone Kaduna Nzeogwu?

The sun doesn’t shine in the east anymore

And the west no longer sees any ray of hope

And in the north, in the south, it’s locust season

So tell me, where will it berth this floundering

ship?

The storm is gathering and the moment comes

When denial will no longer be enough

And the horrors of the past will be exposed

So tell me how will you gag millions of voices?

The season of reckoning is drawing near

When the people come together to make a new pact

On how to live together or move apart

E don tey wey we dey talk am

No be today o, no be today

(It's long we’ve been talking about this, not just

today)

We seek justice and liberty

Truth and honour in high places

We seek freedom and prosperity for all

We seek an end to poverty in this land…
