Reggae Fi Radni

by Linton Kwesi Johnson








Reggae Fi Radni lyrics with English Translations





You nuh see how de clou' them jus' came sit upon me dream Came sit upon me dream like a dark silk screen A dark silk screen over de vision I had seen The vision I had seen, the vision I had seen
So me say that Walter Radni was a victim of hate Someone say that him gone thru heaven's gate Someone that Walter Radni shouldn't tek up his true weight An' go carry 'pon him back like him de weary man a rock
But look how de clou' dem jus' came sat upon me dream Came sit upon me dream like a shout or a scream A shout or a scream or a really ugly scene That awake me from the dream an' alert me to the scheme
So me say that Walter Radni was a prisoner of fate Someone say that him gone thru de hero's gate Someone say that Walter Radni couldn't tek his true weight So him tek it off him back an' go pick it 'pon him lap An' go fall in a trap, an' Sam Burnham get it drop
But look how me dream come jus' get blown to smithereen Came blown to smithereen ina de miggle of the dream Miggle of the dream before de people dem come in People dem come in, the people dem come in
So me say that Walter Radni was no shark fi de sea An' all that him did wan' was fi set him people free Wi' de workers an' de peasants him should a corporate But like a fish to de hook, him go bite 'pon Burnham bait
You nuh see how me dream come jus' get blown to smithereen An' blown to smithereen ina de miggle of the dream Miggle of the dream before de really crucial scene The really crucial scene when the people dem come in
