Letra de Slave Song

[Verso 1]
I see them gathered, see them on the shore
I turned to look once more
And he who knows me not
Takes me to the belly of darkness

[Puente]
The tears run swift and hard
And when they fall
Even, even the comfort of a stone
Would be a gain
There was a time when I thought
I would have to give up
But I´m thankful that I´m
Strong as I am and I´ll
Try to do the best I can

[Pre Coro]
Tears will run swift
And tears will come that fall like rain
I pray that it´s swift though
Tears will fall as cold as pain

[Coro]
I pray to the almighty
Let me not to him do
As he has unto me
Teach my beloved children
Who have been enslaved
To reach for the light continually

[Verso 2]
So many times I prayed
So many times I´ve prayed for you
Prayed for you

[Puente]
The tears run swift and
Hard and cold as pain
Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
Had I not had the strength and wisdom of a warrior
I would have to give up
But I´m thankful that I´m
Strong as I am and I´ll
Try to do the best I can

[Pre Chorus]
Tears will run swift
And tears will come that fall like rain
I pray that it´s swift though
Tears will fall as cold as pain

[Coro]
I pray to the almighty
Let us not do as he has unto us
Teach my beloved children I´ve been a slave
But reach for the light continually

[Conclusi�n]
Wisdom is the flame
Wisdom is the brave warrior
Who will carry us into the sun
I pray that it´s swift though
Tears will come that fall like rain
So many times, so many times
