Celtic - Sinead O,Connor & The Chieftains - The Foggy Dew -

traduzione italiana...
Era il giorno di Pasqua e scendevo giù --
sulla strada per la mia città --
quando vidi protetti dalla bruma del mattino - mille uomini marciare
E nell'aria non c'eran cornamuse e tamburi solo i passi che battevan la sterpaglia, - mentre al colle di Liffey la campana suonava - come il tuono che attraversa la battaglia. --
Con orgoglio scoprii che a sfidare il destino - sventolavan le bandiere della guerra: -
era meglio crepare sotto il cielo di Dublino - che regalare il cuore all'Inghilterra. --
Dalle verdi pianure di Royal Meath --
ogni uomo lasciava la dimora --
mentre i barbari inglesi con i loro fucili - salpavan fra le nebbie dell'aurora. --

Ma i più forti morirono e la campana suonò --
il canto triste della terra violentata --
mentre il vento tagliava il dolore nuovo e antico - come una folle, tremenda sciabolata. Ed il mondo pensava quanto fossero strani - questi uomini liberi e leali -- che morivan "soltanto" per riaccendere ancora la libertà nella bruma dell'aurora

@GodEmperorDano You're an Idiot

[IMSwimmer19]

You're right-- there is no explicit Egyptian record of Jewish slavery, but there are several archaeological evidence and inscription that could refer to that.

But I would like to restate what I said earlier, that " I am proud of being Jewish and having a tradition that survived all that hate, as much as I am grateful the Irish fought and survived centuries of hate to bring us this beautiful music."

That was the point of my post-- from one surviving culture to another.

la traduzione del testo che riporti è MOLTO bella...ma, senza offesa, ritengo che quella di Wikipedia sia più corretta...

@JohnnyBgood977 Heard it.It's a good version.

Hauntingly beautiful. I envision Sinead,, like Lady Godiva, riding a magnificent steed into Dublin along the banks of the Liffy's in its early morning fog, watching the boyos of the Easter Rising pass by---and they no doubt intensely watching her. No wonder the Brits prevailed at the General Post Office. The poor Irish were bewitched and thoroughly distracted by the vision.

Chieftains and Sinead. Pretty amazing combo.

@madamaphilippa too true. The Germans are forced into a guilt complex over the Nazis, yet what for Britain and its allies? America held isolationist policy to sell arms to both sides in WWII and profited from killing and death in the war, and the Soviets, well they killed more of their own people than Hitler did through his persecution of Jews and other minorities. And the British right wing these days complain about foreigners "invading" the country - karma for the empire invading theirs.
