Hetalia - Als Je Iets Kan Doen (If You Can Do Something)

I'll be honest with you: I love this song.


English translation:

An ocean of sorrow asks for more than a song... But still.

I can't say I support every charity
And neither that I always support poor people
I don't want to claim I'm such a saint myself
I can't say I read every newspaper on a daily base
And neither that I fear all the fears of life
I won't claim that I stand on every barricade

But that doesn't mean
That I'll close my eyes for injustice and sorrow
That the world can figure it out without me
That I'm not open, I'll glady contribute my mite
No that doesn't mean
That I don't know what kind of misery you see
I know that even I can do something sometimes
And if you can do something
Why wouldn't you do that for another?

I can't say I can't sleep because of famine
I won't pretend I'm always thinking of evil and death
I won't deny that's it's going well, I'm earning my bread well
I won't act like I'm better than someone else
That I'm suddenly sure of everything I'm doing
I'm only a common human still alive just like you, you

But that doesn't mean
That I'll close my eyes for injustice and sorrow
That the world can figure it out without me
That I'm not open, I'll glady contribute my mite
No that doesn't mean
That I don't know what kind of misery you see
I know that even I can do something sometimes
And if you can do something
Why wouldn't you do that for another?

(rap) the tsunami's, the port full quivering, heavily
covered, battered or wounded
The deceased found by relatives or not even where do we start
Everything goes wrong, everything goes to rack and ruin because of the trouble
It's a shame
You can't do anything against the violence, but every human life counts
So become a hero and donate some money on giro five five five (Translator note: Giro 555 Den Haag/The Hague is the national charitybank thing in Netherlands that goes open for collecting money whenever a disaster happens somewhere)
Even if it is a little bit
We're doing this for mankind and you know that

It's about huge amounts of money that is needed
But if you give a little that's okay as well
It's about realization
Realization for the value of each life
You can help your fellow-man with that

But that doesn't mean
That I'll close my eyes for injustice and sorrow
That the world can figure it out without me
That I'm not open, I'll glady contribute my mite
(No that doesn't mean) but that doesn't mean
That I don't know what kind of misery you see
I know that even I can do something sometimes
And if you can do something
Why wouldn't you do that for another?
Why wouldn't you do that for another?

Your contribution is important
Donate money on Giro 555 The Hague
