The Man Comes Around - Johnny Cash

The Man Comes Around

Johnny Cash


Lyrics:
And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder:
One of the four beasts saying: "Come and see." And I saw.
And behold, a white horse.

There's a man goin' 'round takin' names.
An' he decides who to free and who to blame.
Everybody won't be treated all the same.
There'll be a golden ladder reaching down.
When the man comes around.

The hairs on your arm will stand up.
At the terror in each sip and in each sup.
For you partake of that last offered cup,
Or disappear into the potter's ground.
When the man comes around.

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers.
One hundred million angels singin'.
Multitudes are marching to the big kettle drum.
Voices callin', voices cryin'.
Some are born an' some are dyin'.
It's Alpha's and Omega's Kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree.
The virgins are all trimming their wicks.
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree.
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

Till Armageddon, no Shalam, no Shalom.
Then the father hen will call his chickens home.
The wise men will bow down before the throne.
And at his feet they'll cast their golden crown.
When the man comes around.

Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still.
Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still.
Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still.
Listen to the words long written down, When the man comes around.

Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers.
One hundred million angels singin'.
Multitudes are marchin' to the big kettle drum.
Voices callin', voices cryin'.
Some are born an' some are dyin'.
It's Alpha's and Omega's Kingdom come.

And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree.
The virgins are all trimming their wicks.
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree.
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

In measured hundredweight and penny pound.
When the man comes around.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts,
And I looked and behold: a pale horse.
And his name, that sat on him, was Death.
And Hell followed with him.

Letra:
Y escuche, como venia, el sonido del trueno:
una de las cuatro bestias diciendo "Ven a ver". Y yo vi.
Y contemplé, un caballo blanco.

Hay un hombre caminando por ahí tomando nombres.
Y el decide a quien liberar y a quien culpar
No a todos se les tratara igual.
Habrá una escalera dorada hacia abajo.
Cuando el hombre venga por aquí.

Los pelos de tu brazo se erizaran.
Al terror en cada trago y en cada sorbo.
¿Quieres participar de la última copa que ofrece?
O desaparecen en el suelo del alfarero.
Cuando el hombre venga por aquí.

Escuchar las trompetas, escuchar los gaiteros.
Cien millones de ángeles cantando.
Multitudes marchan a la gran timbal.
Voces llamando, voces llorando.
Algunos nacen y otros están muriendo.
Es el Reino de alpha y omega.

Y el remolino está en el árbol de espinas.
Las vírgenes están recortando sus mechas
El remolino está en el árbol de espinas.
Es difícil para ti patear en contra de los aguijones.

Hasta el Armagedón, no hay paz con trigo, no hay paz.
Luego, el gallo llamará a sus pollos a casa.
El hombre sabio se inclinarán ante la lanzada.
Y a sus pies que le echan sus coronas de oro.
Cuando el hombre venga por aquí.

Quien es injusto, sea injusto todavía.
Quien es justo, practique la justicia todavía.
Quien es inmundo, sea inmundo todavía.
Escuche las palabras de largo por escrito
Cuando el hombre venga por aquí.

Escuchar las trompetas, escuchar los gaiteros.
Cien millones de ángeles cantando.
Multitudes marchan a la gran timbal.
Voces llamando, voces llorando.
Algunos nacen y otros están muriendo.
Es el Reino de alpha y omega.

Y el remolino está en el árbol de espinas.
Las vírgenes están recortando sus mechas
El remolino está en el árbol de espinas.
Es difícil para ti patear en contra de los aguijones.

En la medida quintal y la libra centavo.
Cuando el hombre venga por aquí.


 Y oí una voz en medio de las cuatro bestias,
Y miré, y he aquí: un caballo pálido.
Y su nombre, de quien estaba sentado sobre él, era la muerte.
Y el infierno le seguía.

§1 - Opeth

 §1 Opeth Lyrics: Draped in death, the howl of lore Draped in death, the howl of lore   Alas, my time is at an end I have wallowed in self-pity And I confess to you As part of final plight   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   A syndicates mass in the waiting room Like spiders weave And rumors spread fast above regal tombs Enacted grief   I will here unearth the secrets I've been hiding (hiding, hiding) And guide my children through my trials   Put your trust in my command I thin the blood. I lift my hand   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   Letra: Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición   Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición     Ay, mi tiempo ha llegado a su fin   He estado sumido en la autocompasión   Y te

The Chant - Gojira

 The Chant Gojira Lyrics: You were told to swallow, crawl and hide Victims of fear and deception Get ahold of yourself, rise above The better part of you, immortal   May this purple spring flow into your soul Exhausting all these black holes inside Wake up to the sound of doom! Let this chant ring in your bones and lift you up   Get strong Get strong Get strong Get strong   Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up, wake up Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Letra: Se te dijo que tragaras, gatearas y te escondieras Víctimas del miedo y el engaño Contrólate a ti mismo, elévate por enci
