Paroles et traduction Nik & Jay - Dråber Af Lys

Dråber Af Lys

(Okay) Den frostklare luft får vinden til at stå stille
Solen kigger frem, som om at den har noget at fortælle
Som om den lige vil send' os en besked
Har vi mon glemt, at vi' en lille del af en stor helhed?
Nogle siger, at vi rør ved elementerne
Ødelægger vores hjem - ka' vi overhovedet forhindre det?
Naturen er under pres, kloden har det varmt
Ironisk nok er det os selv, der går hen og bliver ramt
Se, data mangler vi ikk'
Men ka' vi se ud over egen næsetip?
Eller bli'r det først,
Når sidste fisk er fanget, sidste mark er høstet
Når sidste skov er fjernet, sidste sø forgiftet?
Bli'r det virkelig først der i allersidste ende
Det går op for os mennesker, at vi ikk' ka' spis' penge
(Nah) Jeg ka' ikk' la' det ske
Så vidt jeg ved, er der stadig ikk' nogen planet B
I stedet for at fælde ku' vi plant' et træ
I stedet for kun at ta' af, ku' man gi' tilbage
Hvordan forklarer vi fremtidige generationer
Der var travlt med at diskutere bagateller og tælle millioner
Og hvordan får man alle med, der' stadig mennesker derude
Der aldrig har haft adgang til rent vand og mad
Hey, jeg ved det ikk', men ting ta'r tid
Og hvis det hele ikk' bare ska' slutte, må vi start' et sted
Aldrig stop festen, temaet ska' bare ændres
Vi ku' gå forrest, bli' ved med at bevæg' os
Noget spirrer, et frø bli'r til flere
Der' noget, der gror her, noget vibrerer
Og jeg tror, det' håb, der ska' inspirere

Jeg ved ikk' helt, hvor jeg starter
Men jeg tror på os og på mañana
Ja, ja, ja-ja
Jeg ka' se dråber af lys
Så tag min hånd, la' mig vis', jeg har dig
Svaret vil vi søg' og find' i vores hjerter
Ja, ja, ja-ja
Jeg ka' se dråber af lys

Ja, jeg var selv en del af nullernes opsving, velstand og bling-bling
Fan af de finer' ting
Men vi kaldes "skab en forandring", selvom vejen er lang
Vi ku' kig' indad, vi ku' find' vejen sammen
Det' ud af tab og fortvivlelse
At den bedste kunst bliver skabt, de største tænker' bliver født
Idéerne de følger trop
Og dråber af lys fylder natten op
Ku' man forestille sig, at dyrene var levende væsener
Der fortjent' bedre skæbner
At vindens vislen i træerne ga' os ro, når der var kaos
Og skovene var som lunger, der trak vejret med os
At havet var et spejl, vi så os selv i
Og bølgebrusets hvide perler, en skat uden lige
Noget blomstrer, der' noget i gærde
Vi åbner vores øjne, flere og flere
Og jeg tror, det' håb, der ska' inspirere

Jeg ved ikk' helt, hvor jeg starter
Men jeg tror på os og på mañana
Ja, ja, ja-ja
Jeg ka' se dråber af lys
Så tag min hånd, la' mig vis', jeg har dig (Tag min hånd)
Svaret vil vi søg' og find' i vores hjerter
Ja, ja, ja-ja
Jeg ka' se dråber af lys

Jeg ka' se dråber af lys
(Ja-ja) Ja, ja, ja-ja
Jeg ka' se dråber af lys
(Åh-ja-ja, fuego) Ja, ja, ja-ja
Jeg ka' se dråber af lys nu

Drops of Light

(Okay) The frosty air makes the wind stand still
The sun peeks out, as if it has something to tell
As if it wants to send us a message
Have we forgotten that we're a small part of a greater whole?
Some say we're messing with the elements
Destroying our home - can we even prevent it?
Nature is under pressure, the planet is getting warm
Ironically, it's us who end up getting harmed
See, we don't lack data
But can we see beyond the tip of our own noses?
Or will it only be
When the last fish is caught, the last field is harvested
When the last forest is cleared, the last lake poisoned?
Will it really only be then, at the very end
That we humans realize we can't eat money
(Nah) I can't let it happen
As far as I know, there's still no planet B
Instead of cutting down, we could plant a tree
Instead of just taking, we could give back
How do we explain to future generations
That we were busy discussing trifles and counting millions
And how do we include everyone, there are still people out there
Who have never had access to clean water and food
Hey, I don't know, but things take time
And if it all shouldn't just end, we have to start somewhere
Never stop the party, the theme just needs to change
We could lead the way, keep moving
Something sprouts, a seed becomes many
There's something growing here, something vibrating
And I think it's hope that will inspire

I don't quite know where to start
But I believe in us and in tomorrow
Yes, yes, yeah-yeah
I can see drops of light
So take my hand, let me show you, I got you
We will seek and find the answer in our hearts
Yes, yes, yeah-yeah
I can see drops of light

Yeah, I was part of the noughties' upswing, prosperity and bling-bling
A fan of the finer things
But we're called to "create a change", even though the road is long
We could look within, we could find the way together
It's out of loss and despair
That the best art is created, the greatest thinkers are born
Ideas follow suit
And drops of light fill up the night
Could you imagine if animals were living beings
Who deserved better fates
That the wind's whisper in the trees gave us peace when there was chaos
And the forests were like lungs that breathed with us
That the ocean was a mirror, we saw ourselves in
And the white pearls of the wave's roar, a treasure like no other
Something blooms, something is afoot
We open our eyes, more and more
And I think it's hope that will inspire

I don't quite know where to start
But I believe in us and in tomorrow
Yes, yes, yeah-yeah
I can see drops of light
So take my hand, let me show you, I got you (Take my hand)
We will seek and find the answer in our hearts
Yes, yes, yeah-yeah
I can see drops of light

I can see drops of light
(Yeah-yeah) Yes, yes, yeah-yeah
I can see drops of light
(Oh-yeah-yeah, fuego) Yes, yes, yeah-yeah
I can see drops of light now
