Текст песни Roots And Wings (Stephen Kellogg And The Sixers) с переводом

Give us children roots and wings

Never fear the change it brings

There is no reason to be sad

Be thankful for the time you’ve had

When I was a younger guy

One autumn night I told a lie

My dad just shook his head and sighed

Said ‘one day you’ll know what it’s like'

To give your children roots and wings, oh, oh

And not to fear the change it brings, oh, oh

To tell the truth and be a man

To always do the best you can

Mother, she done set me free

From all the locks that once held me

She whispered in my infant ears

That I was wise beyond my years

So even on my darkest nights

I’ve felt the ground and I’ve seen the heights

And one day may you do the same

Oh, child of mine that bears my name

I give to you my roots and wings, oh, oh

With these you can do anything, oh, oh

And you will never be alone

Carry or be carried home

Oh, oh

You’ll be carried home (x2)

You will always be here with me

The way you feel your roots and wings, oh

And never fear the change it brings, oh

So give those children roots and wings, oh, oh

And never fear the change it brings, oh, oh

There is no reason to be sad

Be thankful for the time you had

And give those children roots and wings, oh

Oh, and I give you mine

Roots and wings (x8)
