- Bosnia Lyrics / with translationsI would like to state my vision,
Life was so unfair.
We live in our secure surroundings,
And people die out there.
Bosnia was so unkind.
Sarajevo changed my mind.
And we all call out in despair.
All the love we need isn't there.
And we all sing songs in our room.
Sarajevo erects another doom.
Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo.
Bosnia was so unkind.
Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Saraje-
Bosnia was so unkind.
Sure things would change if we really wanted them to.
No fear for children anymore.
There are babies in their beds,
Terror in their heads,
Love for the love of life.
When do the saints go marching in? [X4]
Walk on tip toe...
Life was so unfair.
We live in our secure surroundings,
And people die out there.
Bosnia was so unkind.
Sarajevo changed my mind.
And we all call out in despair.
All the love we need isn't there.
And we all sing songs in our room.
Sarajevo erects another doom.
Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo.
Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Saraje-
Bosnia was so unkind.
Sure things would change if we really wanted them to.
No fear for children anymore.
There are babies in their beds,
Terror in their heads,
Love for the love of life.
When do the saints go marching in? [X4]
Walk on tip toe...

When we try to interpret the meaning, the song 'Bosnia' by The Cranberries is an extremely sensitive portrayal of war and an appeal for peace, and, at the same time, it draws upon the city of Sarajevo as a metaphor for the pain and the death that are taking place in the war zones. The lyrics of Bosnia reflect mainly the social commentary, the despair, the reflection, the angst, and the heartbreak. However, the song simultaneously highlights the themes of injustice and suffering, hope for change, despair and loss, and a call for action. The lyrics deal with the topics of war, despair, and the harsh realities of life, which might be disturbing to very young kids. The language is soft, but the mature themes and the allusions to violence and suffering imply that it is a good idea for parents to supervise their children.
