(Smith/Kaye/Daugherty)
Oh glad day to celebrate 'Neath the cloudless sky
Air so sweet Water pure
Fields ripe with rye Come one, come all
Gather round Discard your Sunday shoes
Come on now Oh my land
Be a jubilee Come on girl
Come on boy Be a jubilee
Oh my land Oh my good
People don't be shy Weave the birth of harmony
With children's happy cries Hand in hand
We're dancing around In a freedom ring
Come on now Oh my land
Be a jubilee Come on girl
Come on boy Be a jubilee
We will never fade away Doves shall multiply
Yet I see hawks circling the sky Scattering our glad day
With debt and despair What good hour
Will restore our troubled air? Come on people
Gather round You know what to do
Come on people Oh my land
What be troubling Oh my land
What be troubling What be troubling
What be troubling you
We are love and the future We stand in the midst of fury and weariness
Who dreams of joy and radiance? Who dreams of war and sacrifice?
Our sacred realms are being squeezed Curtailing civil liberties
Recruit the dreams that sing to thee Let freedom ring
Freedom ring Freedom ring
Jubilee Oh my land
Oh glad day Oh my land
Hear our cry Freedom ring
Oh glad day Oh my land
Jubilee Jubilee

Patti Smith (Patricia Lee Smith) è una cantautrice, poetessa e artista statunitense nata a Chicago nel 1946. Considerata un'icona del rock alternativo, ha influenzato generazioni di musicisti con il suo stile unico che fonde punk, poesia e performance teatrale. Nel decennio settanta, Smith si è affermata come figura chiave del movimento proto-punk e della New wave, guadagnandosi il soprannome di "sacerdotessa maudite del rock" per il suo carisma interpretativo e la profondità dei suoi testi. Il suo album di debutto, *Horses* (1975), è considerato un classico del genere e contiene brani iconici come "Gloria", "Because the Night" e "Piss Factory". Smith ha collaborato con artisti come Bruce Springsteen, Iggy Pop e Fred Sonic Smith. La sua carriera si è estesa oltre la musica, includendo anche l'attività di scrittrice e artista visiva. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo *Radio Ethiopia* (1976), *Easter* (1978) e *Wave* (2004).
