Lyrics
My father told me not to go and my mother cried
My father advised me against going, and my mother expressed her concern through tears.
and i told her the reason though she oughta know
I explained the reason to my mother, believing she should be aware of it.
then my brother chose a different song
My brother chose a different path or perspective.
i could not talk him into any sense
I couldn't convince my brother to act sensibly; he was stubborn and resistant.
he was too proud to see the light
His pride prevented him from understanding the right course of action.
so we shouldered our guns and jumped the fence
Despite our differences, we armed ourselves and crossed barriers.
and set out across the field to fight
We marched across the field, ready for battle.
hey ahh hey ahh hey ahh
Chorus: Expressive sounds without specific lexical meaning.
next time you see me
Next time you encounter me,
i will awaken thee
I will revive or inspire you.
with a fresh bouquet of freedom
Presenting a new offering of freedom.
i set my axe in this tree
I marked my territory or achievement with determination.
and in my returning ill retrive it
Upon my return, I'll recover it.
along with my bride
I'll also retrieve my future wife.
we are to be married in the green of spring
We plan to marry during the vibrant season of spring.
and to be there ill do anything
I am willing to do whatever it takes to be there.
i did not want to go and leave my lovely one all alone
I didn't want to leave my beloved alone.
ill be back before too long
Assurance of a swift return.
hey ahh hey ahh hey ahh
Chorus: Expressive sounds without specific lexical meaning.
next time u see me
Next time you encounter me,
i will awaken thee
I will revive or inspire you.
with a fresh bouquet of freedom
Presenting a new offering of freedom.
i set my axe in this tree
I marked my territory or achievement with determination.
when i come back ill retrive it
Upon my return, I'll recover it.
along with my bride
I'll also retrieve my future wife.
aint nobody gonna keep me away
I am determined, and no one will prevent me from coming back.
aint nobody gonna keep me away
Reiteration of determination to overcome obstacles.
next time u see me i will awaken thee
Chorus: Expressive sounds without specific lexical meaning.
with a fresh boquet of freedom
Next time you encounter me,
i set my axe in this tree
I will revive or inspire you.
when i come back ill retrice it
Presenting a new offering of freedom.
along with my bride
I marked my territory or achievement with determination.
My bride
Affirmation of commitment to the future spouse.
