Waiting In Vain

"Um mão estendida
De um vagabundo à espera
De um beijo ao adormecer
De uma dama da Primavera..."

"É urgente o amor...
É urgente um barco no mar..."

Até quando a ostentação da Política irá prevalecer sobre os direitos da Humanidade?
Até quando o petróleo será a única condição de sobrevivência do Mundo?
Até quando a moeda irá sustentar os maus vícios da plutocracia?
E, assim, o Mundo espera em vão por um simples gesto...

Até quando?

Waiting in Vain

From the very first time
I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow through.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine:
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
'Cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love...

'Cause if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there.
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there...

Like I said:
It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
And I still can knock some more.
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more.
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief,
But your love is my relief.
Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting for my turn,

See!
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love...

Bob Marley
