Kristina från Duvemåla (musical) "We Open Up The Gateways" Слова песни

We Open Up The Gateways

BrusanderNow surely you knowThat the country you go toIs ruled by the law of the heathenIt's a land of deceivers!Hear me out, KristinaTheir nation is godlessTheir prophets are pagansAnd never true believers!

RobertThey say it's a countryWhere no man is master

Karl OskarWhere farmers like me can look forwardTo the harvesting season

KristinaWith a heavy heartI will go with my husbandI go for the childrenAnd that's my only reason

BrusanderFifty years from todayThere will be no America, you know

Church warden and othersYes, America it will have disappearedFifty years from this day

BrusanderJust you mark my wordsYou'll be sorry if you go

EmigrantsThere is nothing to addWe are leaving whatever you say

So come,We open up the gatewayCome,We've started on the questCome,The stories from AmericaEncourage and inspire

Yes come,We open up the gatewayCome,It opens to the West!Come,The promise of a second chanceIs spreading like a fire

Brusander (to Danjel)This country you go toIs full of pretendersThey bow to their idolsAnd all they seek is trifles and treasureThere, Ulrika, men alwaysYield to desireA land full of lewdnessAnd lechery and pleasure

DanjelI trust in my GodHe will lead me to freedomHe'll light up my pathI'm relying on the signs that He shows me

UlrikaI must get awayFrom these backstabbing lechersAnd start, good as new,In a place where no-one knows me

BrusanderFifty years from todayYou will see how America will fail

Church warden and othersYes, America, it will have been erasedFifty years from this day

BrusanderJust you mark my wordsYou'll be sorry if you sail

EmigrantsThere is no more to addWe are leaving whatever you say

So come,We open up the gatewayCome,We've started on the questCome,The stories from AmericaEncourage and inspire

Yes come,We open up the gatewayCome,It opens to the West!Come,The promise of a second chanceIs spreading like a fire

It's a slow and hesitant beginningIn a land of little changeHard to summon up the steelTo brave a world unknown

And the thought of braking up from home isUnfamiliar and strangeYet so many risk their livesAnd everything they own

So come,We open up the gatewayCome,The mighty river flowsCome,The promise of a better lifeHas set a world in motion

Yes come,We open up the gatewayCome,The mighty river growsCome,The tide has turned andTime has come to reach across the Ocean
