Luyện nghe bài hát Kiri's Piano

Of all of Kiri Ito's joys, the she loved the best
Was to play her prized piano the sun had gone to rest
I used to hear the notes drift down along the water
As Kiri played the notes and for her dear sons and daughters
Now me I piano though not as good as Kiri
She went in for that long haired but my she played it pretty

The order to confiscate their fishing boats and caches
And Kiri's husband to go and work in labour camps
And Kiri left to fend and hold the fort as best she can
But the music did not drift as from up the cove at Kiri's house
And when it did it haunted played with worry played with doubt
For Kiri knew that soon she too would be compelled to
And the old upright would stay behind and she would grieve
I loaded Kiri on the bus with stoic
The crime that were guilty of was that they were not like me
And if I was I didn't know it at the time
They were flotsam on the of war they were no friends of mine
I went up to house to tag all their belongings
And set them out for auctioneers who'd claim them in the
One piece that I thought I'd keep and hold for myself

But Kiri had not it there for me to take as plunder
She'd rolled it onto the dock and on into the harbor
That old upright in strangers' hands was a thought she couldn't
So she consigned it to the sea to the affair
So many years come and gone since Kiri's relocation
I look back now upon that with shame and resignation
For Kiri knew what I did not if we must be free
sometimes we must sacrifice to gain our dignity
Yes Kiri what I did not that if we must be free
Then sometimes we must sacrifice to gain our
