Текст и перевод песни Djavan - Soweto

Soweto

Kinshasa, beirute
Maranhão
O negro que lute
Pra poder sonhar
Em mudar isso aqui

O poder tem tantas mãos
E só sabe mentir
Quanto mais se diz
E mais o povo quer
Eleição

Ninguém esperava ver
A terra estremecer
Com o apartheid

Deus salve soweto
Carência e calor
Dos guetos
De cada canto do mundo
Meu amor
Com tantos assuntos
E eu a te adorar

Absurdo seria
Não pensar que é normal
Se armar todo dia
Para combater o mal
O povo votaria
E assim eu amarei
A serra, a mar é
O litoral

Deus salve soweto
Subtrai de governos
Os que trairão
Esses não
Já tem gente demais
A querer mandar
O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida

Os que trairão
Esses não
Já tem gente demais
A querer mandar
O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida

Kinshasa, beirute
Maranhão
O negro que lute
Pra poder sonhar
Em mudar isso aqui

O poder tem tantas mãos
E só sabe mentir
Quanto mais se diz
E mais o povo quer
Eleição
Ninguém esperava ver
A terra estremecer
Com o apartheid

Deus salve soweto
Subtrai de governos
Que trairão
Esses não
Já tem gente demais
A querer mandar
O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida

Os que trairão
Esses não
Já tem gente demais
A querer mandar
O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida

O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida

Os que trairão
Esses não
Já tem gente demais
A querer mandar
O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida

Os que trairão
Esses não
Já tem gente demais
A querer mandar
O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida

O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida
O povo quer florescer
E ganhar a vida.

Soweto

Kinshasa, Beirut
Maranhao
For the black man to fight
For the hope to dream
Of changing this

Power has so many hands
And it only knows how to lie
The more it says
And the more the people want
Election

No one expected to see
The earth shake
With apartheid

God save Soweto
Poverty and heat
From the ghettos
From every corner of the world
My love
With so many issues
And me adoring you

It would be absurd
Not to think it's normal
To arm oneself every day
In order to fight evil
The people would vote
And so, my love, I will love
The hills, the sea
The coast

God save Soweto
Subtract from governments
Those who will betray
Not those
There are already too many people
Who want to command
The people want to flourish
And earn a living

Those who will betray
Not those
There are already too many people
Who want to command
The people want to flourish
And earn a living

The people want to flourish
And earn a living
The people want to flourish
And earn a living.
