Keep Your Eyes On The Sparrow

Jimmy Cliff

Transposer:

[Intro] Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh [Verse 1] Here I stand with my head down in my hand Wondering what on earth I have done wrong There’s a cloud that has overshadowed me Blocks the light from my eyes I cannot see [Chorus]    But I know just where I wanna be    Right or wrong I’ve got to face my destiny         Somebody tell me to Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow Watch yourself what you do Mind your back what you choose For tomorrow. Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh [Verse 2] One more thing I see people going places every day    See their faces but they never look my way     Where’s the key that should unlock the door I’m sitting here by myself on the floor [Chorus]    But I know just where I wanna be    How many times must I die before I’m set free         Somebody tell me to Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow Watch yourself what you do Mind your back what you choose For tomorrow. Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh [Instrumental] Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh x3         [Verse 1] Here I stand with my head down in my hand Wondering what on earth I have done wrong There’s a cloud that has overshadowed me Blocks the light from my eyes I cannot see [Chorus]    But I know just where I wanna be    Right or wrong I’ve got to face my destiny         Somebody tell me to Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow [Outro] Keep your eyes on the sparrow (Keep it on keep it on) Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow Keep your eyes on the sparrow x2 (fade)

La chanson aborde des thèmes de lutte intérieure et de quête d’identité. L'interprète se retrouve dans un moment de doute, se demandant ce qui a mal tourné dans sa vie. Malgré l'obscurité qui l'entoure, il exprime un désir sincère de découvrir son chemin et de faire face à son destin. Le conseil de garder les yeux sur le moineau évoque l'idée de rester concentré sur ce qui a vraiment de l’importance et d’être vigilant quant aux choix que nous faisons pour l’avenir. Cette œuvre s'inscrit dans un contexte de recherche de sens et de résilience face aux difficultés, où l’individu doit trouver la force de se relever et de continuer, malgré les épreuves. C'est un message d'espoir et de persévérance qui résonne profondément dans nos vies modernes.
