There's Anger in the Land

There's Anger in the Land - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保羅和瑪麗)/Paul and Mary

There's grieving in the country

There's sorrow in the sand

There's sobbin' in the shanty

And there's anger in the land

A woman broods in silence

Close beside an open door

Flung on her flimsy doorstep

Lies a corpse upon the floor

You'll not ask me why I'm silent

The woman said to me

Her two eyes blazed in anger

And her throat throbbed agony

Once my heart could cry in sorrow

Now it lies there on the floor

In the ashes by the hearthstone

They can't hurt it anymore

Oh let the wind go cryin' yonder

In the tree tops by the spring

Let it's voice be soft and feelin'

Like it was a livin' thing

There's grievin' in the country

There's sorrow in the sand

There's sobbin' in the shanty

And there's anger in the land
