“بیدار شو، بپا خیز!”

باب مارلی :

Bob Marley – “Get up, stand up!”

باب مارلی، جامائیکائی الاصل، بزرگترین و محبوبترین خواننده ی رگه تمام دوران، در ۳۶ سالگی در سال ۱۹۸۱، به بیماری سرطان پوست در گذشت. وی جاودانه شاهکاری دارد بنام “بیدار شو، بپاخیز!” که کاملاً بیانگر اوضاع و شرح حال امروزما ست! لذا، لینک به اصل اجرا، ترجمه ی پارسی شعر، و اصل انگلیسی شعر آنرا در زیر تقدیم می کنم:   

Bob Marley, of Jamaican origin, the greatest and most popular Reggae singer of all time, died at age 36 in 1981, of skin cancer. He has a timeless masterpiece song named “Get up, Stand up!” which can very well be the story of & applied to our time, today! Thus, I’m presenting below the link to its original performance, the Parsi translation of its lyrics, and its original English lyrics:

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up: don’t give up the fight!

 

Preacher man, don’t tell me,

Heaven is under the earth!

I know you don’t know

what life is really worth.

It’s not all that glitters is gold;

half the story has never been told.

So now you see the light:

Stand up for your rights; come on!

 

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up: don’t give up the fight!

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up: don’t give up the fight!

 

Most people think,

great god will come from the skies,

takes away everything,

and makes everybody feel high.

But if you know what life is worth,

you will look for yours on earth!

And now you see the light:

You stand up for your rights; yeah!

 

Get up, stand up!

Stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up!

Don’t give up the fight!

Get up, stand up!

Life is your right!

Get up, stand up!

So we can’t give up the fight!

Stand up for your rights; lord, lord!

Get up, stand up!

Keep on struggling on!

Don’t give up the fight; yeah!

 

We’re sick an’ tired of your ism-skism game.

Dyin’ ‘n’ goin’ to heaven in Jesus’ name.

We know when we understand:

Almighty God is a living man!!

You can fool some people sometimes,

but you can’t fool all the people all the time!

So now we see the light.

What we gonna do?

We gonna stand up for our rights!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

 

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up: don’t give up the fight!

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!

Get up, stand up: don’t give up the fight!

 

Don’t give up the fight! …

Why?

Cause I never give up the fight! …

 

Don’t give up the fight! …

Don’t give up! …

Don’t give up the fight! …

 

Children! don’t give up the fight!

Don’t give up the fight! …

Never give up the fight …

 

We’re sick an’ tired of your ism-skism game –

Dyin’ ‘n’ goin’ to heaven in Jesus’ name.

We know when we understand:

Almighty god is a living man!!

You can fool some people sometimes,

but you can’t fool all the people all the time.

So now we see the light.

What we gonna do?

We gonna stand up for our rights!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!
