lirik lagu kev carmody - eulogy (for a black person)
[verse 1]
lay me down in the sacred ground
keep me from the cold
keep me in the deep warm earth
where the stars can see my soul
take me where them trees stand tall
by the waters in the river bend
let me face the rising sun
commend my spirit to the wind
[refrain]
make no monuments or mortal crowns
or speak my name again when you lay me down
[verse 2]
lay me where the forest blooms
in the land that’s seen no plough
where the fragrance on thе western wind carried from еvery springtime flower
give me peace and give me rest
lay me down on the mountain crest
bury me softly without a sound
let the scrub grow back across that mound
[refrain]
make no monuments or mortal crowns
or speak my name again when you lay me down
[verse 3]
bury me quick and bury me deep
without no coffin or shrouded sheet
wrap me in the mother earth
so i can nurture the land’s rebirth
give me joy and give me song
carry the struggle wide and long
do not grieve and do not weep
mortal memories are all we keep, yeah
[refrain]
make no monuments or mortal crowns
or speak my name again when you lay me down
[verse 4]
let the winter dew fall on that grave
let me see the night sky blaze
see the moon in the winter wane
knifin’ through that cosmic maze
give me water give me fire
don’t give me monuments of stone
give me rainbows in the sky
give me back my land in which to lie
[refrain]
make no monuments or mortal crowns
or speak my name again when you lay me down
