Shahin Najafi "Neda" Слова песни

Neda

One morning, she sees her image

in the mirror, lifeless, one who hadn't lived but

was only breathing, she turns on the TV, how is it possible

streets are flooded with people, men and women, young and old

demanding their vote, time had arrived for justice, it was

injustice that was bound to go.

Her mother's warning,have all these deaths brought us any change?

What happened to those in prison? Does anyone know

their pain, or bother to ask their name? Nothing will change,

demanding your rights? It's only mentioned in books, all is vain.

But Neda2 hears a calling, the streets are roaring:

This is your day Neda, the day they'll celebrate your

wedding, the day you conceive the Messiah of Death,

virgin Neda, Amir Abad3 is thirsty for your blood

the groom is the bullets, the bridal chamber your casket.

God see how your sanctity's broken?

your virgin Mary's shot

these savages are ruling,

God see how worthless human lives are?

What were you trying to say by your gaze4 Neda?

I will not silence my voice Neda

your blood runs through every alley

every street's marked by your blood

Sleep! close your eyes, you no longer

have to fear tomorrows, sleep for as long as

we are awake we will echo your name

in the streets.

Take your hands off her chest, No! she will not stop

bleeding! This blood has been gushing out for

a thousand years, this is not Neda's blood, this is the

blood of Iran, our lonely land, the land without a coffin

the land that exiled us, with its self-resenting rulers

how can they show Neda mercy?

I don't rely on ifs and maybes anymore,

I will demand my rights

JUSTICE is here to say, it's injustice that's

bound to go, and until our rights are given,

THIS UPROAR WILL CONTINUE DAY AND NIGHT
