I Wish I Could Have Been There (Woodstock) TRADUÇÃO

I wish I could have been there on the highway

When the people came from miles around to see

The children of the flowers come together

I wish I could have been there in the sunshine

With the sound of lovely laughter in the air

And the music makers first began to play

To hear them play

And I wish I could have been there in the rain

When the clouds were full of castles in the sky

And I wish I could have heard the people sing

As the rhytmn and the words came floating by

I wish I could have been there in the starlight

When the country side was trying once again

And the music and the makers the poets and the singers

And the children of the flowers have all gone

Eu queria ter estado lá na estrada

Quando as pessoas vinham de longe pra ver

Os filhos das flores se reunindo

Eu queria ter estado lá sob o sol

Com o som de risadas lindas no ar

E os músicos começando a tocar

Pra ouvir eles tocarem

E eu queria ter estado lá na chuva

Quando as nuvens estavam cheias de castelos no céu

E eu queria ter ouvido o povo cantar

Enquanto o ritmo e as palavras flutuavam

Eu queria ter estado lá sob as estrelas

Quando o campo tentava mais uma vez

E a música e os criadores, os poetas e os cantores

E os filhos das flores já tinham ido

Composição: John Denver
