Weeping

Chorando

Weeping

Eu conheci um homem que vivia com medo,
I knew a man who lived in fear
Era grande, era raivoso,
It was huge, it was angry,
Estava se aproximando.
It was drawing near.
Atrás de sua casa um lugar secreto,
Behind his house a secret place
Era a sombra do demônio
Was the shadow of the demon
Que ele nunca poderia enfrentar.
He could never face.

Ele construiu um muro de aço e chama
He built a wall of steel and flame
E homens armados para domá-lo
And men with guns to keep it tame
Então, se afastando ele deixou claro
Then standing back he made it plain
Que o pesadelo não iria surgir novamente
That the nightmare would never ever rise again
Mas o medo e o fogo e as armas permanecem.
But the fear and the fire and the guns remain.

Não importa agora, está acabado de qualquer jeito
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
Ele diz ao mundo que ele ( o demônio) está dormindo
He tells the world that it's sleeping
Mas à medida que a noite avançava eu ouvi
But as the night came round I heard
Ele soar devagar
It slowly sound
Estava rugindo, estava chorando
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping
Estava rugindo, estava chorando.
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping.

E então um dia os vizinhos vieram
And then one day the neighbours came
Eles estavam curiosos para saber sobre a fumaça e a chama
They were curious to know about the smoke and flame
Eles ficaram de pé em torno do exterior do muro
They stood around outside the wall
Mas claro que não havia nada em absoluto para se ouvir
But of course there was nothing to be heard at all
"Meus amigos", ele disse, "Nós alcançamos o nosso o bjetivo"
"My friends," he said, "We've reached our goal
A ameaça está sob firme controle
The threat is under firm control
Enquanto a paz e a ordem reinarem
As long as peace and order reign
Eu vou me danar se puder ver uma razão para explicar
I'll be damned if I can see a reason to explain
Porque o medo e o fogo e as armas permanecem. "
Why the fear and the fire and the guns remain."

Não importa agora, está acabado de qualquer jeito
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
Ele diz ao mundo que ele ( o demônio) está dormindo
He tells the world that it's sleeping
Mas à medida que a noite avançava eu ouvi
But as the night came round I heard
Ele soar devagar
It slowly sound
Estava rugindo, estava chorando
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping
Estava rugindo, estava chorando.
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping.

Diga ah, diga ah, diga ah
Say ah, say ah, say ah
Diga ah, diga ah, diga ah.
Say ah, say ah, say ah

Não importa agora, está acabado de qualquer jeito
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
Não importa agora, está acabado de qualquer jeito
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow

Não importa agora, está acabado de qualquer jeito
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
Ele diz ao mundo que ele ( o demônio) está dormindo
He tells the world that it's sleeping
Mas à medida que a noite avançava eu ouvi
But as the night came round I heard
Ele soar devagar

Estava rugindo, estava chorando
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping
Estava rugindo, estava chorando.
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping.

Diga ah, diga ah, diga ah
Say ah, say ah, say ah
Diga ah, diga ah, diga ah [para terminar]
Say ah, say ah, say ah [to end]
