Den Schlusspunkt der Antikriegslieder setzt Patti Smith: People Have The Power.
People Have The Power
I was dreaming in my dreaming
Of an aspect bright and fair
And my sleeping it was broken
But my dream it lingered near
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
That the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
Upon the meek the graces shower
It's decreed the people rule
Of an aspect bright and fair
And my sleeping it was broken
But my dream it lingered near
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
That the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
Upon the meek the graces shower
It's decreed the people rule
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
Vengeful aspects became suspect
And bending low as if to hear
And the armies ceased advancing
Because the people had their ear
And the shepherds and the soldiers
Lay beneath the stars
Exchanging visions
And laying arms
To waste in the dust
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
And bending low as if to hear
And the armies ceased advancing
Because the people had their ear
And the shepherds and the soldiers
Lay beneath the stars
Exchanging visions
And laying arms
To waste in the dust
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
Where there were deserts
I saw fountains
Like cream the waters rise
And we strolled there together
With none to laugh or criticize
And the leopard
And the lamb
Lay together truly bound
I was hoping in my hoping
To recall what I had found
I was dreaming in my dreaming
God knows a purer view
As I surrender to my sleeping
I commit my dream to you
I saw fountains
Like cream the waters rise
And we strolled there together
With none to laugh or criticize
And the leopard
And the lamb
Lay together truly bound
I was hoping in my hoping
To recall what I had found
I was dreaming in my dreaming
God knows a purer view
As I surrender to my sleeping
I commit my dream to you
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The power to dream, to rule
To wrestle the world from fools
It's decreed the people rule
It's decreed the people rule
To wrestle the world from fools
It's decreed the people rule
It's decreed the people rule
Listen
I believe everything we dream
Can come to pass through our union
We can turn the world around
We can turn the earth's revolution
We have the power
People have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The power to dream, to rule
To wrestle the world from fools
It's decreed the people rule
It's decreed the people rule
We have the power
People have the power
We have the power...
To wrestle the world from fools
It's decreed the people rule
It's decreed the people rule
We have the power
People have the power
We have the power...

Die Menschen haben die Macht
Ich träumte in meinem Träumen
von einer hellen und strahlenden Erscheinung
und mein Schlafen wurde unterbrochen
aber mein Traum hing weiter in der Luft
in der Form leuchtender Täler,
wo die reine Luft erkannte
und meine Sinne neu sich öffneten
Ich erwachte zu dem Ruf,
dass das Volk die Macht hat,
die Arbeit von Idioten abzugelten
Über die Sanftmütigen wird die Gnade regnen,
es ist beschlossen: Das Volk regiert
Das Volk hat die Macht
Das Volk hat die Macht
Das Volk hat die Macht
Das Volk hat die Macht
Racherfüllte Erscheinungen wurden verdächtig
und beugten sich herab, wie um zu lauschen
und die Armeen hörten mit dem Vormarsch auf,
denn die Leute hatten ihr Gehör gefunden
und die Schäfer und die Soldaten
lagen unter den Sternen,
tauschten ihre Vorstellungen aus
und legten die Waffen
zur Ruhe, in den Staub
in Form leuchtender Täler
wo die reine Luft erkannte
und meine Sinne, neu geöffnet
Ich erwachte zu dem Ruf
Wo Wüsten waren,
sah ich Brunnen,
wie Sahne die Wasser steigen,
und wir streiften dort gemeinsam herum
ohne über jemanden zu lachen zu kritisierten
und der Leopard
und das Lamm
lagen ehrlich verbunden beieinander
Ich hoffte in meinem Hoffen
mich daran zu erinnern, was ich gefunden hatte
Ich träumte in meinem Träumen,
Gott weiß es, eine reinere Sicht
wie ich mich meinem Schlaf hingebe,
verpflichte ich dir meinen Traum
Die Macht, zu träumen, zu herrschen,
die Welt den Idioten abzuringen
es ist beschlossen: Das Volk regiert
es ist beschlossen: Das Volk regiert
HÖRT ZU
Ich glaube, dass alles, was wir erträumen,
durch unsere Einheit wahr werden kann
Wir können die Welt herumdrehen
Wir können die Revolution der Erde umsetzen
Wir haben die Macht
Das Volk hat die Macht
