| The poet dreams so he cannot let you go
| El poeta sueña para no dejarte ir
|
| I feel it breathe deep and slow;
| Siento que respira hondo y lento;
|
| Feed and watch the black dog grow
| Alimenta y mira crecer al perro negro
|
| Feed him smoke and feed him wine
| Alimentalo con humo y alimentalo con vino
|
| Feed him lust and love and lies
| Aliméntalo con lujuria, amor y mentiras
|
| Taste the violence in his throat
| Prueba la violencia en su garganta
|
| Stare right down the cursed hole
| Mira fijamente por el agujero maldito
|
| Of the shadows he is heir;
| De las sombras es heredero;
|
| In your heart he makes his lair
| En tu corazón hace su guarida
|
| Cerberus;
| Cerbero;
|
| I dub you pain
| te llamo dolor
|
| Three-headed fiend
| Demonio de tres cabezas
|
| A heart in chains
| Un corazón en cadenas
|
| Shadow sustained
| Sombra sostenida
|
| The poet feeds with the black dog at his throat
| El poeta se alimenta con el perro negro en la garganta
|
| So swallow hard, force it down
| Así que traga fuerte, fuerza hacia abajo
|
| From the beast reclaim your crown
| De la bestia reclama tu corona
|
| Brick him off and seal him up
| Ladrarlo y sellarlo
|
| Tell yourself the coffin’s shut
| Dite a ti mismo que el ataúd está cerrado
|
| Lightning flash and thunder roll
| Relámpago relámpago y trueno rodar
|
| Grumbling sky it clears its throat
| Cielo gruñendo se aclara la garganta
|
| Pray the storm will keep at bay
| Reza para que la tormenta se mantenga a raya
|
| That not dead but locked away | Que no está muerto pero encerrado |
