Lyrics für "Buddhas Smile"
BUDDHA'S SMILE
INTRO:
A whole nation's pride
is held in captivity
They talk about freedom , human rights
and fight for everyone's liberty
but the guns have prevailed over the mantras of the monks
at least for now
it is the silence of the world
that perpetuates it …
REFRAIN:
Last night a Golden Buddha smiled at me
he smiled, smiled, he smiled at me
Last night a Golden Buddhas dream came true
his dream, dream, his dream came true
Let the Golden Buddha smile
Let the golden Buddha smile
for you, for you and me
for me, for me and you
ACTIVE GROOVE PART:
We need
tolerance - not ignorance
We ask to
integrate - not violate
No more time for - confrontation
No more ethnic cleansing and disintegration
No more brutality
The message is :
All parts of the world - shall be free !
REFRAIN:
Last night a Golden Buddha smiled at me
he smiled, smiled, he smiled at me
Last night a Golden Buddhas dream came true
his dream, dream, his dream came true
Let the Golden Buddha smile
Let the golden Buddha smile
for you, for you and me
for me, for me and you
QUESTIONS :
Why attacks against ethnic minorities ?
Why torture of peaceful monks,
who are marching for human rights ?
and Why award Aung San Suu Kyi the Nobel Peace Prize ?
and then accept, that they keep her under house arrest ?
She has to be free…
It is the light - that will break the chains ….
may be we can set a sign : Put candles into our rivers flow,
imagine the Lights of Hope - and let them glow ...
Extended Version ACTIVE PART :
Imagine : To LOVE and INTEGRATE
To RESPECT and TOLERATE
REFRAIN:
Last night a Golden Buddha smiled at me
he smiled, smiled, he smiled at me
Last night a Golden Buddhas dream came true
his dream, dream, his dream came true
Let the Golden Buddha smile
Let the golden Buddha smile
for you, for you and me
for me, for me and you
