Original Lyrics
Translation in Persian
How does a bastard, orphan son of a whore
چطور يك حرامزاده،يتيم
And a Scotsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in the Caribbean
فرزند يك بدكاره و مرد اسكاتلندي،كه در يك نقطه فراموش شده در كاراييب رها شده
By providence, impoverished, in squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar?
بين يك مشيت فقير آن هم در كثيفي،توانست بزرگ شود و به مقام برسد؟
The 10 dollar
بنيان گذار ١٠ دلاري
Founding father without a father
Founding father without a father
Got a lot farther by working a lot harder, by being a lot smarter
ب
By being a self-starter, by 14 they placed him in charge of a trading charter
By being a self-starter, by 14 they placed him in charge of a trading charter
And everyday while slaves were being slaughtered and carted away
And everyday while slaves were being slaughtered and carted away
Across the waves, he struggled and kept his guard up
Across the waves, he struggled and kept his guard up
Inside he was longing for something to be a part of
Inside he was longing for something to be a part of
The brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow or barter
The brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow or barter
Then a hurricane came, and devastation reigned
Then a hurricane came, and devastation reigned
Our man saw his future drip, dripping down the drain
Our man saw his future drip, dripping down the drain
Put a pencil to his temple, connected it to his brain
Put a pencil to his temple, connected it to his brain
And he wrote his first refrain, a testament to his pain
And he wrote his first refrain, a testament to his pain
Well the word got around, they said
Well the word got around, they said
"This kid is insane, man!"
"This kid is insane, man!"
Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland
Took up a collection just to send him to the mainland
"Get your education, don′t forget from whence you came
"Get your education, don′t forget from whence you came
And the world's gonna know your name. What′s your name man?"
And the world's gonna know your name. What′s your name man?"

And there's a million thing I haven't done
And there's a million thing I haven't done
But just you wait, just you wait
But just you wait, just you wait
When he was 10, his father split, full of it, debt ridden
When he was 10, his father split, full of it, debt ridden
2 years later, see Alex and his mother bed-ridden
2 years later, see Alex and his mother bed-ridden
Half-dead, sitting in their own sick, the scent thick
Half-dead, sitting in their own sick, the scent thick
And Alex got better but his mother went quick
And Alex got better but his mother went quick
Moved in with a cousin, the cousin committed suicide
Moved in with a cousin, the cousin committed suicide
Left him with nothing but ruined pride, something new inside
Left him with nothing but ruined pride, something new inside
A voice saying, "Alex you gotta fend for yourself"
A voice saying, "Alex you gotta fend for yourself"
He started retreating and reading every treatise on the shelf

There woulda been nothing left to do for someone less astute

He woulda been dead and destitute without a cent of restutition
He woulda been dead and destitute without a cent of restutition
Started working, clerking for his late mother′s landlord
Started working, clerking for his late mother′s landlord
Trading sugar cane and rum and all the things he can′t afford
Trading sugar cane and rum and all the things he can′t afford
Scanning for every book he can get his hands on
Scanning for every book he can get his hands on
Planning for the future, see him now as he stands on
Planning for the future, see him now as he stands on
The bow of a ship headed for a new land
The bow of a ship headed for a new land
In New York you can be a new man

Will they know what you overcame?

The world will never be same, oh

The ship is in the harbor now, see if you can spot him
The ship is in the harbor now, see if you can spot him
Another immigrant coming up from the bottom

His enemies destroyed his rep, America forgot him
