휘트니 휴스턴이 비비&씨씨 와이난스와 함께 부른 노래 중 하나입니다.
다소 잊혀진 명곡이지요.
국내에는 잘 알려지지 않았습니다.
1980년도 정도가 휘트니 휴스턴의 보컬 전성기라고 보시면 될 것 같습니다.
[Intro: BeBe & CeCe and Whitney Houston]
Alright now. You ready, Ce?
I'm ready!
How about you, Whitney?
I think so
Why don't we hold up the light?
Okay!
[Chorus: BeBe & CeCe and Whitney Houston]
Hold up the light
Save the world from darkness
Hold up the light
Won't you please, America?
빛을 들어,
세상을 어둠에서 구하자
빛을 들어,
미국이여
[Verse 1: BeBe Winans & CeCe Winans]
It's time for all of us
Who claim in God we trust
To take a stand
신을 믿는다고 칭하는 우리가
행동을 취할 때가 되었어
Let our voice be heard
Across the nation
To every man, every man
이 나라를 거펴 모든 이들에게
우리의 메세지가 전해지도록
If we are the light
It's time for us to fight
For what is right
우리가 빛이라면,
이제는 옳음을 위해 싸울 차례야
We must work while it is day, oh yeah
Before the fall of night
밤이 찾아오기 전, 해가 있을 때 싸워야한 해
[Pre-Chorus: Whitney Houston]
Voices crying
Young people dying
Lost, nowhere to run
절규가 울리고
어린 사람들은 죽어가며
갈 곳 없이 길을 잃었어
So I'm asking
Takes sacrificing
Time for us to come
And hold up the light
이제는 우리가 희생하여
빛을 들 차례야
[Chorus: BeBe & CeCe and Whitney Houston]
Hold up the light (Hey, save the world)
Save the world from darkness (Darkness, say it again, say)
Hold up the light
Won't you please, America?
[Verse 2: Whitney Houston]
Boys and girls
Can't you see
The kind of friend
Crack can be
아이들아, 크랙이 어떤 것인지(얼마나 나쁜 것인지)
보이지 않는 것이니
[Pre-Chorus: BeBe Winans & Whitney Houston]
See, there's voices crying
Young people dying
Lost, nowhere to run, nowhere to run
So I'm asking
Takes sacrificing
Time for us to come
And hold up the light
[Chorus: BeBe & CeCe and Whitney Houston]
Hold up the light (Save the world)
Save the world from darkness (Can you say it again? Say)
(한 번 더)
Hold up the light
Won't you please, America? (Let's do it, let's do it)
Hold up the light
Save the world from darkness (Hey)
Hold up the light
Won't you please, America?
[Bridge: BeBe Winans & Whitney Houston]
Hey
Come on, hey, hey hey hey hey
Oh, just a little bit higher
You better hold it, you better hold it up
Better hold it up
좀 더 높이 빛을 들어줘
Oh, oh yeah
This thing is serious
진지하게.
Say save the world
Save the world
You better hold up the light
[Pre-Chorus: BeBe & CeCe and Whitney Houston]
Voices crying
Young people dying
Lost, nowhere to run (Nowhere to run)
So I'm asking
Takes sacrificing
Time for us to come
And hold up the, hold up the light, yeah
[Chorus: BeBe & CeCe and Whitney Houston]
Hold up the light
Save the world from darkness (Oh yeah)
Hold up the light (Say won't you please...)
Won't you please, America? (Won't you please, America?)
Hold up the light (Oh yeah, boys and girls, girls and boys)
Save the world from darkness (Men and women)
Hold up the light (Everybody)
Won't you please, America? (That's all)
(Say, I pledge allegiance)
(맹세한다고 말 해 줘)
Hold up the light (Better hold up the light, hold it up)
Save the world from darkness (I gotta hold up a little higher)
Hold up the light (A little higher, higher)
Won't you please, America?
Hold up the light
Save the world from darkness
