Joan Baez - O What a Beautiful City [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[intro]

Oh, what a beautiful city
Oh, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

And it's oh, what a beautiful
Oh

Oh Lord, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

[verse]

There's three gates in the East
There's three gates in the West
There's three gates in the North
There's three gates in the South
That makes twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

And it's oh, what a beautiful
Oh

[Chorus]

Oh Lord, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

Oh Lord, what a beautiful city
Oh

Oh Lord, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

[verse]

If you see my dear old mother
Won't you do this favor for me
Won't you please tell my mother
To meet me in Galilee
Well, it's twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

[Chorus]

Oh Lord, what a beautiful
Yeah

Oh Lord, what a beautiful
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

[verse]

God Almighty!
What you talking' 'bout?
Oh, Lordy
Whoo!

[Chorus]

Oh Lord, what a beautiful
Whoa!
Oh Lord, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah

[outro]

Oh Lord, what a beauty
Whoa!

Oh Lord, what a beauty
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah
