Текст песни Kokopo (Broken Spears) - Christafari

I see the yellow moon arise
With the changing of the tide
Our strong vessel has arrived
We thank God we have survived

Then they gather the warriors
To runway the foreigners
They incite our fears
When they greet us with spears

So help us Jah
For we′ve come this far
Is this our final day?
Should we stay or run away

From Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo

There will be no revival
If we do not have survival
The cannibals have scared us away
To a different bay

But to our greatest fears
We are greeted here
By different warriors with different shields
But they have the same spears

Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo

We were praying in one key
Praising in harmonies
One, two, and three
They had never heard such a sound
And in unison they put their weapons down

They drop their shields
And snapped their bows
They broke their spears
And their arrows

Then they came bearing gifts
And with shell offerings
Saying how can we buy
We need to have just what you are selling

Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo

They will not fight
They've broken their swords
And opened their lives
To the Lord of Lords

From the Duke of York
Through east new Britain
Papua New Guinea
Is becoming Christian and

Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo
Kokopo, Kokopo

We will not fret
No we won′t fear
For we love Kokopo
Yes we are welcome here

We will not fret
No we won't fear
For we love Kokopo
We're coming back next year
