Текст (слова) песни: McKennitt, Loreena - Breaking The Silence

I hear some distant drumbeat
A heartbeat pulsing low
Is it coming from within
A heartbeat I dont know
A troubled soul knows no peace
A dark and poisoned pool
Of liberty now lost
A pawn an oppressors tool.

Oh my heart be strong
And guide when eyes grow dim
When ears grow deaf with empty words
When I know theres life within.

A gunfire shatters silence
Where birds once sweetly sang
A mother cradles a child now dead
Now death where life began

From the troubled heart of South Africa
Nicaraguas festering sore
The turmoil on the streets of China
Death crying out for more

A change is slow in coming
My eyes can scarcely see
The rays of hope come streaming
Through the smoke of apathy

But oh my heart be strong
And guide when eyes grow dim
When ears grow deaf with empty words
When I know theres life within.

May the spirit never die
Though a troubled heart feels pain
When this long winter is over
It will blossom once again.
