Bob Marley - Redemption Song
Esta época estoy con Bob Marley.
"Redemption song" es una canción preciosa a la que no había prestado atención.
Es del último disco que compuso antes de su muerte - murió de cáncer a los 36 años - Al parecer, cuando compuso la canción ya le habían diagnosticado el cancer y se encontraba (según su esposa, Rita Marley) en un profundo estado de depresión y tristeza. En cualquier caso, la canción transmite mucha paz y dulzura.
Redemption song
Old pirates, yes, they rob i;
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took i
From the bottomless pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the and of the almighty.
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Wont you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
cause none of them can stop the time.
How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look? ooh!
Some say its just a part of it:
Weve got to fulfil de book.
Wont you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.

None but ourselves can free our mind.
Wo! have no fear for atomic energy,

How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say its just a part of it:
Weve got to fulfil de book.
Wont you help to sing
Dese songs of freedom? -
cause all I ever had:
Redemption songs -
All I ever had:
Redemption songs:
These songs of freedom,
Songs of freedom.
