Sami Yusuf, Outlandish - Try Not To Cry lyrics

You, you're not aware that we're aware
Of your despair don't show your tears
To your oppressor don't show your tears

Try not to cry, little one you're not alone
I'll stand by you try not to cry, little one
My heart is your stone i'll throw with you

(Yo, fo' the children, yeah)
‘Ayn Jalut where David slew Goliath
This very same place that we be at
Passing through the sand of times
This land been the victim of countless crimes
From Crusaders, Mongols
To the present aggression then the Franks
Now even a crueller oppression

If these walls could speak
Imagine what would they say
For me in this path that I walk on
There's only one way
Bullets may kill, bones may break
(there's only one way)
Still, I throw stones like David
Before me and I say

Try not to cry, little one you're not alone
I'll stand by you try not to cry, little one
My heart is your stone i'll throw with you

No llores, no pierdas la fe
La sed la calma el que haze agua de la arena
Y tu que te levantas con
Orgullo entre las piedras
Haz hecho mares de este polvo

I throw stones at my eyes
For too long they've been dry
Plus they see what they shouldn't
From oppressed babies to thots
I throw stones at my tongue
'Cause it should really keep it's peace
I throw stones at my feet
'Cause they stray and lead to defeat
A couple of big ones at my heart
'Cause the thing is freezing cold
But my nafs is still alive and kickin'
Unstoppable, on a roll
I throw bricks at the devil so
I'll be sure to hit him
But first, at the man in the mirror
So I can chase out the venom

Hmm, a little boy shot in the head
Just another kid sent out to get some bread
Not the first murder, nor the last
Again and again, a repetition of the past
Since the very first day, same story
Young ones, old ones, some glory
How can it be
Has the whole world turned blind?
Or is it just 'cause it's
Only affecting my kind?

If these walls could speak
Imagine, what would they say?
For me in this path that I walk on
There's only one way
Bullets may kill, bones may break
Still, I throw stones david, I say
Bullets may kill, bones may break
Still, I throw stones david, I say

Try not to cry, little one you're not alone
I'll stand by you try not to cry, little one
My heart is your stone i'll throw with you

Yeah, yeah, I'll throw wit' you
I'll stand by you i'll stand by you
I'll throw with you i'll throw wit' you
I'll stand by you yeah
I'll throw with you throw wit' you
I'll stand by you i'll stand by you
I'll stand by you i'll stand by you
I'll stand by you i'll stand by you
Stand by you i'll stand by you
Stand by you i'll stand by you
Yeah i'll stand by you
Stand by you i'll stand by you
