--A Boy From NoWhere--

--A Boy From NoWhere--




The nights grow cold,
My search for gold
Is leading nowhere
Whichever lonely road I take
It seems to go where
It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow
How can I display
What I know I'm worthy of
When they turn me away

The doors are closed to such as I
A boy from nowhere
But not to those who merely buy
The right to go where
They'll be met with respect,
Not humiliation.
A man's place on earth
I have come to realize
Is decided by birth

So what's the future
No matter where I go
I will still belong...
In Andalucia
Where we don't know where
The next penny's coming from
Something's wrong

I'm bound to Spain,
I won't remain
A boy from nowhere
There has to be
A place for me
And I must go there
I don't fantasize unlike a million others
Who must bow and scrape
For my one means of escape
Is to flourish a cape.

I'll fight all odds
And fight the Gods if they oppose me
I have to win
I won't give in
No one who knows me
Would expect me to fail
For the want of trying
Not a man alive
Had to beg or steal or fight
more than me to survive

So what's the future
No matter where I go
I will still belong...
In Andalusia
Where good honest men grow weak
and the rich grow strong
Something's wrong

Another dawn, another boy
A boy from nowhere
My destiny will guarantee
I'll only go where
It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow
One more mouth to feed
And the way things are round here,
That's the last thing they need.

清明夏曆二十四節氣之一。《曆書》:「春分後 十五日,斗指丁,為清明,時萬物皆潔齊而清明,蓋時當氣清景明,萬物皆顯,因此得名。」清明節的起源,據傳始於古代帝王將相「墓祭」之禮,後來民間亦相倣 傚,於此日祭祖掃墓,歷代沿襲而成為中華民族一種固定的風俗。由於中國廣大地區有在清明之日進行祭祖、掃墓踏青的習俗,逐漸演變為華人以掃墓、祭拜等形式紀念祖先的一個中國傳統節日,在仲春與暮春之交,一般為冬至之 後106天,寒食節的後一天。掃墓活動在節前後可延續十天左右。清明節與三節也是中國傳統節日祭祖的四大節慶。

清明節的習俗在中國南方和北方地區的規模、方式不盡相同。民間還有插戴柳枝、放風箏、取薪火、畫蛋、鬥雞、盪鞦韆等活動。此習俗也流行於白族苗族蒙古族納西族少數民族。在越南韓國琉球等 地,清明節也是重要的節日。
