(Potlesk)
04:14
This is a song that came about
42
236000
4000
Toto je pieseň, ktorá vznikla,
04:18
because I think it's difficult to be in the world
43
240000
4000
pretože si myslím, že je ťažké byť v tomto svete
04:22
and not be aware of what's going on,
44
244000
2000
a nevedieť o tom, čo sa deje,
04:24
and the wars and so forth.
45
246000
5000
o vojnách a tak ďalej.
04:29
This song kind of came out of all of that.
46
251000
4000
Táto pieseň vznikla z tohto všetkého.
04:33
And I wrote a lot of happy songs on my first record,
47
255000
7000
Ja som napísal veľa veselých piesní na mojom prvom CD,
04:40
which I still stand by,
48
262000
2000
za ktorými si stále stojím,
04:42
but this has got something else in it.
49
264000
2000
ale táto má v sebe niečo viac.
04:44
It's called "Peace on Earth."
50
266000
3000
Volá sa "Mier na zemi".
05:03
♫ There is no hope. ♫
51
285000
3000
♫ Nie je žiadna nádej. ♫
05:06
♫ There is no future. ♫
52
288000
3000
♫ Nie je žiadna budúcnosť. ♫
05:09
♫ No faith in God to save the day. ♫
53
291000
4000
♫ Ani viera v Boha, aby zachránil deň. ♫
05:13
♫ There is no reason, no understanding ♫
54
295000
4000
♫ Žiadny dôvod, žiadne porozumenie, ♫
05:17
♫ no sacred place to hide away. ♫
55
299000
4000
♫ žiadne sväté miesto na ukrytie sa. ♫
05:21
♫ There is no earnest conversation. ♫
56
303000
5000
♫ Ani len tá najjednoduchejšia konverzácia. ♫
05:26
♫ No words of wisdom from the wise. ♫
57
308000
4000
♫ Žiadne slová múdrosti od múdrych. ♫
05:30
♫ There is no reconciliation ♫
58
312000
4000
♫ Žiadny zmier, ♫
05:34
♫ and no collective compromise. ♫
59
316000
5000
♫ žiadny spoločný kompromis. ♫
05:39
♫ Peace on Earth, ♫
60
321000
2000
♫ Mier na Zemi, ♫
05:41
♫ that's what we want. ♫
61

05:48

05:50

65

♫ Avšak v predsieni ♫
05:54
♫ lurks the ghost of war. ♫
66
336000
8000
♫ číha duch vojny. ♫
06:02
♫ He wants more, and more, and more, and more, ♫
67
344000
5000
♫ A chce stále viac, viac, viac a viac, ♫
06:07
♫ and more, and more, and more, and more. ♫
68
349000
5000
♫ a viac, a viac, a viac, a viac. ♫
06:12
♫ There is no darkness, no sunshine. ♫
69
354000
3000
♫ Nie je žiadna temnota, žiadne svetlo. ♫
06:15
♫ There is no great society. ♫
70
357000
4000
♫ Nie je žiadna veľká spoločnosť. ♫
06:19
♫ There is no freedom without conviction. ♫
71
361000
5000
♫ Nie je žiadna sloboda bez presvedčenia. ♫
06:24
♫ There is no freedom to be free. ♫
72
366000
4000
♫ Nie je žiadna sloboda, v ktorej by si bol voľný. ♫
06:28
♫ There is no heaven, no fire and brimstone. ♫
73
370000
4000
♫ Nie je žiadne nebo, žiaden oheň, žiadna zápalka. ♫
06:32

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Raul Midon - GuitaristGuitarist and singer Raul Midon blends flamenco, jazz and R&B to create a category-defying sound. His life story is as inspiring as his musical vision.
Why you should listen
Raul Midon is into beating the odds, shattering stereotypes, and making category-defying music. "I was told as a child, 'You're blind; you can't do this,'" Midon told an interviewer in 2005. "I was told when I moved to New York, 'You can't do that, you're not going to make it.'" At 40, however, Midon has clearly made it.
After singing backup vocals for stars like Shakira, Julio Iglesias, Jennifer Lopez and Christina Aguilera, Midon released his major-label solo debut, State of Mind, with help from guest artist Jason Mraz. Midon's innovative songwriting incorporates his lyrics, guitar handiwork (jazz, classical, flamenco, R&B) and "vocal trumpet" improvisation. Though he draws comparisons to Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway and Richie Havens, Midon is the rare original in an industry of few.
His latest album is A World Within a World.
