George Harrison Bangla Desh Lyrics

My friend came to me with sadness in his eyes

told me that he wanted help before his country dies.
Although I couldn't feel the pain
I knew I had to try.
Now I'm asking all of you to help us save some lives.

Bangla Desh
Bangla Desh

where so many people are dying fast

and it sure looks like a mess.
I've never seen such distress.
Now
won't you lend your hand

try to understand.
Relieve the people of Bangla Desh.

Bangla Desh
Bangla Desh

such a great desaster
I don't understand

but it sure looks like a mess.
I've never known such distress.
Now
please don't turn away

I wanna hear you say

relieve the people of Bangla Desh.

Relieve the people of Bangla Desh.
Bangla Desh
Bangla Desh

now it may seem so far from where we all are.
It's something we can't reject

that suff'ring I can't neglect.
Now
won't you give some bread

get the starving fed.
We've got to relieve Bangla Desh.
