Sculpture de recyclage

Un original Bob Marley sculpté dans une souche sur un golf de la Jamaïque (dont j'ai trouvé la photo ici).
Recyclage supérieur à bien d'autres.
Cette sculpture me donne l'occasion de présenter enfin sur ce blogue un reggae («One Love»), les années quatre-vingt mêmes, les années de mes trente ans (je présenterai les paroles plus tard, et leur traduction, si le cœur m'en dit).




One Love

One Love! One Heart!
Let's get together and feel all right.
Hear the children cryin' (One Love!);
Hear the children cryin' (One Heart!),
Sayin': give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right;
Sayin': let's get together and feel all right. Wo wo-wo wo-wo!

Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One Love!);
There is one question I'd really love to ask (One Heart!):
Is there a place for the hopeless sinner,
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own beliefs?

One Love! What about the one heart? One Heart!
What about Love ? Let's get together and feel all right
As it was in the beginning (One Love!);
So shall it be in the end (One Heart!),
All right!
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right;
Let's get together and feel all right.
One more thing!

Let's get together to fight this Holy Armagiddyon (One Love!),
So when the Man comes there will be no, no doom (One Song!).
Have pity on those whose chances grows t'inner;
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation.

Sayin': One Love! What about the One Heart? (One Heart!)
What about the love? Let's get together and feel all right.
I'm pleadin' to mankind! (One Love!);
Oh, Lord! (One Heart) Wo-ooh!

Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right;
Let's get together and feel all right.
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right;
Let's get together and feel all right.

Pas mal religieux, n'est-ce pas? Tellement que je ne traduirai pas ce texte. Ce serait donner des munitions à l'Infâme.
