| I’ve seen the sunshine on the black side of the moon
| He visto la luz del sol en el lado negro de la luna
|
| and I’ve seen the faces that laugh and turned to cry
| y he visto las caras que ríen y se vuelven a llorar
|
| see his disguise see the laugh in his eyes
| ver su disfraz ver la risa en sus ojos
|
| drink from the tear that he cries
| bebe de la lágrima que llora
|
| I’ve watched the grey man wishing he were young like me
| He visto al hombre gris deseando ser joven como yo
|
| and I’ve seen the child and the young fool
| y he visto al niño y al joven tonto
|
| that he tries hard not to be
| que se esfuerza por no ser
|
| and I’ve seen the strong
| y he visto el fuerte
|
| as they prayed on bended knees
| mientras rezaban de rodillas
|
| and I’ve watched the beggar
| y he visto al mendigo
|
| counted his short-changed
| contó su defraudado
|
| riches for the feast
| riquezas para la fiesta
|
| pray, pray
| orar, orar
|
| storm has come
| ha llegado la tormenta
|
| it’s judgement day
| es el día del juicio
|
| running from the sun
| corriendo del sol
|
| chosen one has come
| ha venido el elegido
|
| to light the way
| para iluminar el camino
|
| cry, cry
| llorar llorar
|
| bow our heads and wonder why
| inclinar la cabeza y preguntarnos por qué
|
| gavel of his honor
| mazo de su honor
|
| hammers down
| martillos abajo
|
| then we’re sent away
| entonces nos envían lejos
|
| see his disguise
| ver su disfraz
|
| see the laugh in his eyes
| ver la risa en sus ojos
|
| drink from the tear
| beber de la lágrima
|
| that he cries
| que el llora
|
| I’ve seen the towers
| he visto las torres
|
| lying crumbled at my feet
| yaciendo desmoronado a mis pies
|
| and I’ve seen the cities
| y he visto las ciudades
|
| and the wastelands that remain
| y los páramos que quedan
|
| and I’ve seen the victory
| y he visto la victoria
|
| and the prize that none shall keep
| y el premio que nadie se quedará
|
| and the short time
| y el poco tiempo
|
| that the glory hides the pain | que la gloria esconde el dolor |
