[00:00:00] Sacco's Letter To His Son - Woody Guthrie

[00:00:02] Written by：Nicola Sacco/Pete Seeger

[00:00:04] If nothing happens they will electrocute us right after midnight

[00:00:12] Therefore here I am right with you with love

[00:00:16] And with open heart as I was yesterday

[00:00:23] Don't cry Dante for many many tears have been wasted

[00:00:30] As your mother's tears have been already wasted for seven years

[00:00:36] And never did any good

[00:00:40] So son instead of crying be strong be brave

[00:00:48] So as to be able to comfort your mother

[00:00:58] And when you want to distract her from the discouraging soulness

[00:01:06] You take her for a long walk in the quiet countryside

[00:01:12] Gathering flowers here and there

[00:01:16] And resting under the shade of trees beside the music of the waters

[00:01:25] The peacefulness of nature she will enjoy it very much

[00:01:31] And you will surely too

[00:01:35] But son you must remember don't use all yourself

[00:01:43] But down yourself just one step

[00:01:47] To help the weak ones at your side

[00:02:10] The weaker ones that cry for help the persecuted and the victim

[00:02:19] They are your friends friends of yours and mine

[00:02:23] They are the comrades that fight yes and sometimes fall

[00:02:31] Just as your father your father and Bartolo have fallen

[00:02:40] Have fought and fell yesterday for the conquest of joy

[00:02:47] Of freedom for all

[00:02:51] In the struggle of life you'll find you'll find more love

[00:03:00] And in the struggle you will be loved also
