Testo China - Joan Baez
Testo della canzone China (Joan Baez), tratta dall'album The Complete Gold Castle Masters
In the month of May
In the glory of the day
Came the descendants of a hundred flowers
And their fight it did begin
With the aging Mandarin
And they fought with an extraordinary power
Everyone was smiling
Their hearts were one
In Tiananmen Square
But it seems that the spring
This year in Beijing
Came just before the fall
There was no summer at all
In Tiananmen Square
China, China
There's peace in the emerald fields
There's mist upon the lakes
But something is afoot in the people's hall
The spirit of Zhu Ping
Is alive in young Chai Ling
And the Emperor has his back against the wall
Black sun rising
Over Tiananmen Square
Over Tiananmen Square
And it seems that the spring
This year in Beijing
Came just before the fall
There was no summer at all
In Tiananmen Square
China, China
In the month of June
In the darkness of the moon
Went the descendants of a hundred flowers
And time may never tell
How many of them fell
Like the petals of a rose in some satanic shower
Everyone was weeping
In all of China
And Tiananmen Square
And it seems that the spring
This year in Beijing
Came just before the fall
There was no summer at all
In Tiananmen Square
And even the moon
On the fourth day of June
Hid her face and did not see
Black sun rising
Over Tiananmen Square
And Wang Wei Lin
You remember him
All alone he stood before the tanks
The shadow of forgotten ancestors
In Tiananmen Square
And my blue-eyed son
You have no one
You would call a hero of your age
You have the rainbow warriors
Of Tiananmen Square
Singing
China shall be free
China shall be free
China shall be free
China shall be free
China shall be free
China shall be free
China shall be free
China shall be free
China shall be free
