TELL ME WHY



("Mãos de militante", foto de J. Silva Rodrigues, Bruxelles, Dezembro 2008)

Vale a pena passar 3 minutos e 48 segundos para assistir a um dos momentos mais emocionantes de música que Youtube nos oferece. Declan Galbraith canta de forma simplesmente fabulosa, com uma voz bonita, cristalina, forte, de arrepiar e uma letra que nos obriga a reflectir, mesmo que não consigamos compreender tudo por estar em inglês, não importa! O importante é a força da mensagem e da reflexão!

Em http://www.youtube.com/, é fácil procurar este clip através do nome de Declan Galbraith. Vale a pena!

Tell me why

In my dreams, children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue, the fields are green
And laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need


Tell me why, why does it have to be like this
Tell me why, why is there something I have missed
Tell me why, why 'cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand


Tell me why


Every day, I ask myself
what will I have to do to be a man
Do I have, to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am
Is that what my life is for?
To waste in a world full of war


Tell me why, why does it have to be like this
Tell me why, why is there something I have missed
Tell me why, why 'cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand



Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
Just tell me why

Tell me why, why does it have to be like this
Tell me why, why is there something I have missed
Tell me why, why 'cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand


Tell me why does the tigers run?
Tell me why do we shoot the gun?
Tell me why do we never learn?
Can someone tell us why we let the forests burn


Why do we say we care?
Tell me why
Why do we stand and stare?

Tell me why
Why do the dolphins cry?

Tell me why
Can someone tell us why we let the ocean die


Why if we're all the same?
Tell me why
Why do we pass the blame?

Tell me why
Why does it never end?
Can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends

Why?

Why?
