The Partisan |
They poured across the borders |
We were cautioned to surrender |
This I could not do |
Into the hills I vanished |
No one ever asks me |
Who I am or where I’m going |
But those of you who know |
You cover up my footprints |
I have changed my name so often |
I have lost my wife and children |
But I have many friends |
And some of them are with me |
An old woman gave us shelter |
Kept us hidden in a garrett |
And then the soldiers came |
She died without a whisper |
There were three of us this morning |
And I’m the only one this ev’ning |
Still I must go on |
Frontiers are my prison |
Oh the winds, the winds are blowing |
Thru the graves the winds are blowing |
Freedom soon will come! |
Then we’ll come from the shadow |
