| If your love were taken from me
| Si me quitaran tu amor
|
| Every color would be black and white
| Todos los colores serían blanco y negro
|
| It would be as flat as the world before Columbus
| Sería tan plano como el mundo antes de Colón
|
| That’s the day that I lose half my sight
| Ese es el día que pierdo la mitad de mi vista
|
| If your life were taken from me
| Si tu vida me fuera arrebatada
|
| All the trees would freeze in this cold ground
| Todos los árboles se congelarían en este suelo frío
|
| It would be as cruel as the world before Columbus
| Sería tan cruel como el mundo antes de Colón
|
| Sail to the edge and I’d be there looking down
| Navega hasta el borde y estaría allí mirando hacia abajo
|
| Those men who lust for land
| Esos hombres que codician la tierra
|
| And for riches strange and new
| Y por riquezas extrañas y nuevas
|
| Who love those trinkets of desire
| Que aman esas baratijas del deseo
|
| Oh they never will have you
| Oh, nunca te tendrán
|
| And they’ll never know the gold
| Y nunca conocerán el oro
|
| Or the copper in your hair
| O el cobre en tu cabello
|
| How could they weigh the worth
| ¿Cómo podrían sopesar el valor?
|
| Of you so rare
| De ti tan rara
|
| If your love were taken from me
| Si me quitaran tu amor
|
| Every light that’s bright would soon go dim
| Cada luz que es brillante pronto se apagaría
|
| It would be as dark as the world before Columbus
| Sería tan oscuro como el mundo antes de Colón
|
| Down the waterfall and I’d swim over the brim
| Por la cascada y nadaría sobre el borde
|
| Those men who lust for land
| Esos hombres que codician la tierra
|
| And for riches strange and new
| Y por riquezas extrañas y nuevas
|
| Who love those trinkets of desire
| Que aman esas baratijas del deseo
|
| Oh they will never have you
| Oh, nunca te tendrán
|
| And they’ll never know the gold
| Y nunca conocerán el oro
|
| Or the copper in your hair
| O el cobre en tu cabello
|
| How could they weigh the worth
| ¿Cómo podrían sopesar el valor?
|
| Of you so rare | De ti tan rara |
