Yellow Triangle
Christy Moore| Original | La versione neerlandese (olandese/fiamminga) della poesia |
| YELLOW TRIANGLE Black triangle, pink triangle, green triangle, red triangle, blue triangle, lilac triangle, And they wore the yellow triangle. When first they came for the criminals, I did not speak. Then they began to take the Jews, When they fetched the people who were members of trade unions, I did not speak. When they took the Bible students, Rounded up the homosexuals, Then they gathered up the immigrants and the gypsies, I did not speak. Eventually they came for me And there was no one left to speak. | TOEN ZE DE COMMUNISTEN KWAMEN HALEN Toen ze de communisten kwamen halen heb ik niets gezegd, ik was geen communist. Toen ze de vakbondsleden kwamen halen heb ik niets gezegd, ik was geen vakbondslid. Toen ze de joden kwamen halen heb ik niets gezegd, ik was geen jood. Toen ze de katholieken kwamen halen heb ik niets gezegd, ik was geen katholiek. Toen kwamen ze mij halen, en er was niemand meer om iets te zeggen. |
