Eric Bogle - THE SIGN слова песни




"The Sign"-Eric BogleIn the summer of last year, in a city* far from hereThat stands on the shores of the fair Pacific seaI walked it`s pleasant streets, no view in mind, no one to meetContent to wander where my aimless feet led meA few streets from my hotel, I passed an old stone wallwhere three words had been scrawled by an unknown handWhen I read them I stopped dead, in disbelief I shook my headFor the words on that wall read, "Free Bobby Sands"As the sun began to fall, and the day began to dieThought I heard the wild geese call, from a dark and empty skyFor long minutes I stood there, in that busy thoroughfareWhile the past rose sharp and clear in my mind`s eyeI saw it all again, the passion, hate, and painthe indifference and the shame as a young man diedBut it was all so long ago, and who now cares or knowswhy Bobby Sands chose his lonely death?But to the one who wrote that sign,it seems that Bobby`s light still shinesThe words rang from another time,but the paint was freshAs the sun began to fall, and the day began to dieThought I heard the wild geese call, from a dark and empty skySo I went down to the sea, to let it`s wild song comfort meBut my thoughts would not let me be, and unchecked they ranThrough my future, present, and past,not for the first time nor the lastI heard them ask, "Could you be the kind of manwho would gladly sacrifice everything, even lifeand put no price on a cause, or an ideal?"No answer echoed in my heart, so I turned and I walked backthrough the twilight`s deepening dark, to my hotel.****************Historical Note:Bobby Sands, MP, was imprisoned in 1981 under criminal chargesstemming from his alleged involvement in IRA terrorist activitiesin Ulster Province (Northern Ireland). Mr. Sands, along with20 other alleged IRA members in prison awaiting trial, wenton a hunger strike to protest inhumane conditions in the prison, and tohave the IRA members reclassified as "political prisoners".The hunger strike lasted more than 60 days, resulting in the deathsof many of the prisoners, of which Mr. Sands was the first to succumb.*Auckland, New Zealand
