The Snake With Eyes Of Garnet(original) |
Last night as I lay dreaming |
My way across the sea |
James Mangan brought me comfort |
With laudnum and poitin |
He flew me back to Dublin |
In 1819 |
To a public execution |
Being held on Stephen’s Green |
The young man on the platform |
Held his head up and he did sing |
Then he whispered hard into my ear |
As he handed me this ring |
If you miss me on the harbour |
For the boat, it leaves at three |
Take this snake with eyes of garnet |
My mother gave to me! |
This snake cannot be captured |
This snake cannot be tied |
This snake cannot be tortured, or Hung or crucified |
It came down through the ages |
It belongs to you and me So pass it on and pass it on |
'Till all mankind is free |
If you miss me on the harbour |
For the boat, it leaves at three |
Take this snake with eyes of garnet |
My mother gave to me He swung, his face went purple |
A roar came from the crowd |
But Mangan laughed and pushed me And we got back on the cloud |
He dropped me off in London |
Back in this dying land |
But my eyes were filled with wonder |
At the ring still in my hand |
If you miss me on the harbour |
For the boat, it leaves at three |
Take this snake with eyes of garnet |
My mother gave to me! |
And if you miss me on the harbour |
For the boat, it leaves at three |
Take this snake with eyes of garnet |
My mother gave to me! |
(traducción) |
Anoche mientras yacía soñando |
Mi camino a través del mar |
James Mangan me trajo consuelo |
Con láudno y poitín |
Me llevó de vuelta a Dublín |
En 1819 |
A una ejecución pública |
Se llevará a cabo en Stephen's Green |
El joven en la plataforma |
Levantó la cabeza y cantó |
Luego susurró fuerte en mi oído |
Mientras me entregaba este anillo |
Si me extrañas en el puerto |
Para el barco sale a las tres |
Toma esta serpiente con ojos de granate |
¡Mi madre me dio! |
Esta serpiente no puede ser capturada |
Esta serpiente no se puede atar |
Esta serpiente no puede ser torturada, ni colgada ni crucificada. |
Se redujo a través de las edades |
Pertenece a ti y a mí Así que pásalo y pásalo |
Hasta que toda la humanidad sea libre |
Si me extrañas en el puerto |
Para el barco sale a las tres |
Toma esta serpiente con ojos de granate |
Mi madre me dio. Se balanceó, su rostro se puso morado. |
Un rugido vino de la multitud. |
Pero Mangan se rió y me empujó Y volvimos a la nube |
Me dejó en Londres |
De vuelta en esta tierra moribunda |
Pero mis ojos estaban llenos de asombro |
En el anillo todavía en mi mano |
Si me extrañas en el puerto |
Para el barco sale a las tres |
Toma esta serpiente con ojos de granate |
¡Mi madre me dio! |
Y si me extrañas en el puerto |
Para el barco sale a las tres |
Toma esta serpiente con ojos de granate |
¡Mi madre me dio! |
