Simon And Garfunkel - He Was My Brother

He was my brother
Five years older than I
He was my brother
Twenty-three years old the day he died

Freedom writer
They cursed my brother to his face
Go home outsider
This town's1 gonna be your buryin' place

He was singin' on his knees
An angry mob trailed along
They shot my brother dead
Because he hated what was wrong

He was my brother
Tears can't bring him back to me
He was my brother
And he died so his brothers could be free
He died so his brothers could be free

O, Benim Ağabeyimdi

O, benim ağabeyimdi:
Benden beş yaş büyüktü...
O, benim ağabeyimdi:
Yirmi üç yaşındaydı:
Öldüğü gün...

Özgürlük yazarıydı benim ağabeyim:
Yüzüne lanet ettiler ağabeyimin:
Evine yabancı olarak girdiler.
Bu kasaba senin mezarın olacakmış.(meğer)

Diz çökmüş şarkı söylüyormuş ağabeyim,
Öfkeli bir çete peşine düşmüş ağabeyimin,
Vurmuşlar ağabeyimi:
Sırf yanlış olan şeyden nefret ettiği için...

O, benim ağabeyimdi.
Gözyaşları onu geri getiremez bana...
O, benim ağabeyimdi.
Ve kardeşleri özgür olsun diye öldü o,
Kardeşleri özgür olsun diye öldü o...
