My People (Langston Hughes) Lyrics by Loah

When I Rise Up

0

The night is beautiful
So the faces of my people
The stars are beautiful
So the eyes of my people
Beautiful, also, is the sun
Beautiful, also, are the souls of my people
The night is beautiful
So the faces of my people
The stars are beautiful
So the eyes of my people
So the eyes of my people
Beautiful, also, is the sun
Bеautiful, also, are the souls of my peoplе
---
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow
