Letras de Hourglass - Clannad

Hourglass (original)

He comes out of silence and opens the door
Waiting for someone to die
Deep in her heart she is hoping for
The long-lost one
How could she know when the promise was made?
So how can it end in this way?
Then four gray walls come tumbling down
And just because her skin was brown
No wonder she has grown so fast
Those four gray walls were meant to last
The friends there that she can count upon
Take orders, but always the spirit holds
Scenes of the never-ending trend
She waits for the hours and hours to pass
She looks to the hourglass
Then four gray walls come tumbling down
And just because her skin was brown
No wonder she has grown so fast
Those four gray walls were meant to last
Those four gray walls were meant to last
As the shadows come down
She sees him leaving
She can recall
Seems that this fire has lost its form
The form of the hourglass
The four gray walls came tumbling down
And just because her skin was brown
No wonder she has grown so fast
Those four gray walls were meant to last
Those four gray walls were meant to last
Those four gray walls
Four gray walls

(traducción)

Sale del silencio y abre la puerta.
Esperando a que alguien muera
En lo profundo de su corazón ella está esperando
El perdido hace mucho tiempo
¿Cómo podía saber cuándo se hizo la promesa?
Entonces, ¿cómo puede terminar de esta manera?
Entonces cuatro paredes grises se derrumban
Y solo porque su piel era morena
No es de extrañar que haya crecido tan rápido
Esas cuatro paredes grises estaban destinadas a durar
Los amigos allí con los que puede contar.
Recibe órdenes, pero siempre el espíritu aguanta
Escenas de la tendencia interminable
Ella espera que pasen horas y horas
ella mira el reloj de arena
Entonces cuatro paredes grises se derrumban
Y solo porque su piel era morena
No es de extrañar que haya crecido tan rápido
Esas cuatro paredes grises estaban destinadas a durar
Esas cuatro paredes grises estaban destinadas a durar
A medida que las sombras descienden
ella lo ve irse
ella puede recordar
Parece que este fuego ha perdido su forma
La forma del reloj de arena
Las cuatro paredes grises se derrumbaron
Y solo porque su piel era morena
No es de extrañar que haya crecido tan rápido
Esas cuatro paredes grises estaban destinadas a durar
Esas cuatro paredes grises estaban destinadas a durar
Esas cuatro paredes grises
cuatro paredes grises
