mayn rue-plats/where i rest - daniel kahn & the painted bird lyrics

Loading...

nit zukh mikh vu di mirtn grinen
gefinst mikh dortn nit, mayn shats
vu lebns velkn bay mashinen
dortn iz mayn rue-plats

nit zukh mikh vu di feygl zingen
gefinst mikh dortn nit, mayn shats
a shklaf bin ikh vu keytn klingen
dortn iz mayn rue-plats

nit zukh mikh vu fontanen shpritsn
gefinst mikh dortn nit, mayn shats
vu trern rinen, tseyner kritsn
dortn iz mayn rue-plats

look not for me in natures greenery
you will not find me there, i fear
where lives are wasted by machinery
that is where i rest, my dear

look not for me where birds are singing
enchanting songs find not my ear
for in my slavery, chains a-ringing
is the music i do hear

not where the streams of life are flowing
i draw not from these fountains clear
but where we reap what greed is sowing
hungry t–th & falling tears

but if your heart does love me truly
join it with mine & hold me near
then will this world of toil & cruelty
die in birth of eden here

un libstu mikh mit varer libe
to k-m tsu mir, mayn guter shats
un hayter oyf mayn harts dos tribe
un makh mir zis mayn rue-plats
