Song language: English
Hallelujah Time |
Hear the children crying |
But I know they cry not in vain |
Now the times are changing |
Love has come to bloom again |
Smelling the air when spring comes by raindrops |
Reminds us of youthful days |
But now it’s not rain that water the cane crops |
But the sweat from man’s brow |
The substance from our spine |
We got to keep on living, living on borrowed time |
Hallelujah time |
Yes, you can hear the children singing |
Hallelujah time |
As they go singing by and by |
Hallelujah time |
Oh, «hallelujah» singing in the morning |
Hallelujah time |
Let them sing, don’t let them cry |
Over rocks and mountains |
The sheep are scattered all around |
Over hills and valleys |
They are everywhere to be found |
But though we bear our burdens now |
All afflictions got to end somehow |
From swinging the hammer, pulling the plough |
Why won’t you let us be, to live in harmony |
We like to be free like birds in a tree |
