Don McLean "The Grave" letra

The Grave

The grave that they dug him had flowersGathered from the hillsides in bright summer colorsAnd the brown earth bleached whiteAt the edge of his gravestoneHe's gone

When the wars of our nation did beckonThe man, barely twenty, did answer the callingProud of the trustThat he placed in our nationHe's gone

But eternity knows himAnd it knows what we've done

And the rain fell like pearlsOn the leaves of the flowersLeaving brown, muddy clayWhere the earth had been dry

And deep in the trenchHe waited for hoursAs he held to his rifleAnd prayed not to die

But the silence of nightWas shattered by fireAs the guns and grenadesBlasted sharp through the air

One after anotherHis comrades were slaughteredIn the morgue of marinesAlone, standing there

He crouched ever lowerEver lower, with fear"They can't let me dieThey can't let me die here!

I'll cover myselfWith the mud and the earthI'll cover myselfI know I'm not brave!

The earth, the earthThe earth is my grave"

The grave that they dug him had flowersGathered from the hillsides in bright summer colorsAnd the brown earth bleached whiteAt the edge of his gravestoneHe's gone

Grob

Na grobu gde su ga zakopali raslo je cvećeZabačen na brdu u letnjim bojamaA crna zemlja je počela da svetliNa ivici njegovog grobaOtišao je

Kada su ratovi naše nacije pozivaliČovek hrabri, sa dvedeset leta je prihvatio pozivPonosan na istinuU grudima mu je kucao srce patrioteOtišao je

Ali večnost ga je sustreoI ona jedino zna šta smo učinili

I dok kiša pada poput biseraNa lišće i na cvećeOstavlja braon, mutno blatoNa mestu gde je bilo suvo

A duboko u rovuJe čekao satimaDržeći puškuI moleći se da ne umre

Ali tišina noćiSe razbila od vatreOd granata i od paljbeProkleto oštrih kroz vazduh

Jednog po jednogNjegovi drugovi su bili ubijeniU mrtvoj rupiOn je stojao sam

Sagnuo se što je više mogaoTako nisko, pun strahaNe mogu da me ubijuNe mogu da me ubiju ovde!

Prekriću sebeSa blatom i zemljomPrekriću sebeZnam, nisam hrabar

Zemlja, zemljaPostade moj grob

Na grobu gde su ga zakopali raslo je cvećeZabačen na brdu u letnjim bojamaA crna zemlja je počela da svetliNa ivici njegovog grobaOtišao je
