Daniel And The Sacred Harp

The Band

Transposer:

Chorus: Daniel Daniel and the sacred harp Dancing through the clover. Daniel Daniel would you mind If I look it over. Verse: I heard of this famous harp years ago  back in my home town But I sure never thought old Daniel be the one to come and bring it around Tell me Daniel how the harp came into your posession. Are you one of the chosen few who will march in the procession? and Daniel said: The sacred harp was handed down from father unto son And me not being related  I could never be the one. So I saved up all my silver and took it to a man Who said he could deliver the harp straight into my hand. Three years I waited patiently ’Till he returned with the harp from the sea of Galilee. He said there is one more thing I must ask But not of personal greed. But I wouldn’t listen I just grabbed the harp And said take what you may need. Now Daniel looked quite satisfied and the harp it seemed to glow. But the price that Daniel had really paid he did not even know. Back to his brother he took his troubled mind. And he said dear brother I’m in a bind. But the brother would not hear his tale he said Old Daniel’s gonna land in jail. So to his father Daniel did run    And he said oh father what have I done. His father said son you’ve given in you know you won your harp But you lost in sin. Then Daniel took the harp and went high on the hill And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwhill. He played out his heart just the time to pass But as he looked to the ground he noticed no shadow did he cast. Repeat Chorus

Dans cette chanson, on suit l’histoire de Daniel, un personnage qui désire ardemment une harpe sacrée qu'il a entendue parler dans sa jeunesse. Il finit par obtenir cette harpe après avoir économisé de l’argent et attendu patiemment son arrivée. Mais en recevant cet instrument, il ne se rend pas compte du prix qu'il a vraiment payé pour l'acquérir, un prix qui dépasse le matériel. En tentant de partager sa joie avec son frère et son père, il découvre que ce don peut également être une malédiction, révélant une dilemme entre le désir et les conséquences de nos choix. Cette histoire nous plonge dans un univers où le bonheur semble à portée de main, mais où l'innocence de Daniel le rend vulnérable aux répercussions qu'il ne soupçonne pas de ses actes. L'ironie de sa situation souligne une vérité profonde sur la nature humaine, où chaque gain peut s'accompagner d'une perte.
