letra de cranes over hiroshima - small fred
the baby blinks her eyes as the sun falls from the sky
she feels the stings of a thousand fires as the city around her dies
some sleep beneath the rubble, some wake to a different world
from the crying babe will grow a laughing girl.
ten summers fade to autumn, ten winters’ snows have p-ssed
she’s a child of dreams and dances, she’s a racer strong and fast
but the headaches come ever more often and the dizziness always returns
and the word that she hears is leukemia, and it burns.
chorus:
cranes over hiroshima, white and red and gold
flicker in the sunlight like a million vanished souls
i will fold these cranes of paper to a thousand one by one
and i’ll fly away when i am done.
her ancestors knew the legend–if you make a thousand cranes
from squares of colored paper, it will take the pain away
with loving hands she folds them, six hundred forty-four
till the morning her trembling fingers can’t fold anymore.
chorus
her friends did not forget her–crane after crane they made
until they reached a thousand and laid them upon her grave
people from everywhere gathered, together a prayer they said
and they wrote the words in granite so none can forget:
final chorus:
this is our cry, this is our prayer, peace in the world
