作词 : Ray, Smith | |
Suffer not your neighbor's affliction | |
Suffer not your neighbor's paralysis | |
But extend your hand, extend your hand | |
Lest you vanish in the city and be but a trace | |
Just a vanished ghost and your legacy | |
All the things you knew, science, mathematics, thought | |
Severely weakened like irrigation systems | |
In the tired veins forming from the | |
Tigris and | |
EuphratesIn the realm of peace, all the world revolved | |
All the world revolved around a perfect circle | |
City of Baghdad, city of scholars | |
Empirical humble center of the world | |
City in ashes, city of | |
BaghdadCity of | |
Baghdad, abrasive aloof | |
Oh, in Mesopotamia aloofness ran deep | |
Deep in the veins of the great rivers | |
That form the base of | |
EdenAnd the tree the tree of knowledge | |
Held up its arms to the sky | |
All the branches of knowledge | |
All the branches of knowledge, cradling, cradling | |
Civilization in the realm of peace | |
All the world revolved around a perfect circle | |
Oh, Baghdad, center of the world | |
City of ashes with its great mosques | |
Erupting from the mouth of | |
God, rising from the ashes | |
Like a speckled bird, splayed against the mosaic sky | |
Oh, clouds around, we created the zero | |
But we mean nothing to you, you would believe | |
That we are just some mystical tale | |
We are just a swollen belly that gave birth to | |
SindbadScheherazade, we gave birth | |
Oh, oh, to the zero, the perfect number | |
We invented the zero and we mean nothing to you | |
Our children run through the streets | |
And you sent your flames, your shooting stars | |
Shock and awe, shock and awe | |
Like some, some imagined warrior production | |
Twenty-first century, no chivalry involved | |
No Bushido | |
Oh, the code of the | |
West long gone | |
Never been, where does it lie? | |
You came, you came through the | |
WestAnnihilated a people and you come to us | |
But we are older than you, you come, you wanna | |
You wanna come and rob the cradle | |
Of civilization and you read, yet you read | |
You read genesis, you read of the tree | |
You read of the tree beget by | |
GodThat raised its branches into the sky | |
Every branch of knowledge | |
Of the cradle of civilization | |
Of the banks of the | |
Tigris and the | |
EuphratesOh, in | |
Mesopotamia aloofness ran deep | |
The face of | |
Eve turning, what sky did she see | |
What garden beneath her feet, the one you drill | |
You drill pulling the blood of the earth | |
Little droplets of oil for bracelets, little jewels | |
Sapphires, you make bracelets | |
Round your own world, we are weeping tears | |
Rubies, we offer them to you | |
We are just your | |
Arabian nightmare | |
We invented the zero but we mean nothing to you | |
Your Arabian nightmare | |
City of stars, city of scholarship | |
Science city of ideas, city of light, city | |
City of ashes that the great | |
CaliphWalked through his naked feet formed a circle | |
And they built a city, a perfect city of | |
BaghdadIn the realm of peace and all the world revolved | |
And they invented and they mean nothing to you | |
Nothing to you, nothing | |
Go to sleep, go to sleep my child | |
Go to sleep and | |
I'll sing you a lullaby | |
A lullaby for our city, a lullaby of | |
BaghdadGo to sleep, sleep my child | |
Sleep, sleep, run, run | |
You sent your lights, your bombs | |
You sent them down on our city, shock and awe | |
Like some crazy | |
TV showThey're robbing the cradle of civilization | |
They're robbing the cradle of civilization | |
They're robbing the cradle of civilization | |
Suffer not the paralysis of your neighbor | |
Suffer not but extend your hand |
