A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall - Bob Dylan

A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall

Bob Dylan



Lyrics:
Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
And where have you been my darling young one?
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what did you see, my blue eyed son?
And what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin'
I saw a white ladder all covered with water
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder that roared out a warnin'
I heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
I heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin'
I heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'
I heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin'
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what did you meet my blue-eyed son ?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young woman whose body was burning
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
I met one man who was wounded in love
I met another man who was wounded in hatred
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

And what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
And what'll you do now my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest
Where the people are a many and their hands are all empty
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
And the executioner's face is always well hidden
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
Where black is the color, where none is the number
And I'll tell and speak it and think it and breathe it
And reflect from the mountain so all souls can see it
And I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin'
But I'll know my song well before I start singing
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Letra:
Oh, ¿dónde has estado, mi querido hijo de ojos azules?
¿dónde has estado, mi joven querido?
He tropezado con la ladera de doce brumosas montañas,
he andado y me he arrastrado en seis autopistas curvadas,
he andado en medio de siete bosques sombríos,
he estado delante de una docena de océanos muertos,
me he adentrado diez mil millas en la boca de un cementerio,
y es dura, es dura, es dura, es muy dura,
es muy dura la lluvia que va a caer.

Oh, ¿y qué viste, mi hijo de ojos azules?
Oh, ¿qué viste, mi joven querido?
Vi lobos salvajes alrededor de un recién nacido,
vi una autopista de diamantes que nadie usaba,
vi una rama negra goteando sangre todavía fresca,
vi una habitación llena de hombres cuyos martillos sangraban,
vi una blanca escalera cubierta de agua,
vi diez mil oradores de lenguas estaban rotas,
vi pistolas y espadas en manos de niños,
y es dura, es dura, es dura, y es muy dura,
es muy dura la lluvia que va a caer.

¿Y qué oíste, mi hijo de ojos azules?
¿Y qué oíste, mi joven querido?
Oí el sonido de un trueno, que rugió sin aviso,
oí el bramar de una ola que pudiera anegar el mundo entero,
oí cien tamborileros cuyas manos ardían,
oí diez mil susurros y nadie escuchando,
oí a una persona morir de hambre, oí a mucha gente reír,
oí la canción de un poeta que moría en la cuneta,
oí el sonido de un payaso que lloraba en el callejón,
y es dura, es dura, es dura, es muy dura,
es dura la lluvia que va a caer.

Oh, ¿a quién encontraste, mi hijo de ojos azules?
¿Y a quién encontraste, mi joven querido?
Encontré un niño pequeño junto a un poni muerto,
encontré un hombre blanco que paseaba un perro negro,
encontré una mujer joven cuyo cuerpo estaba ardiendo,
encontré a una chica que me dio un arco iris,
encontré a un hombre que estaba herido de amor,
encontré a otro, que estaba herido de odio;
y es dura, es dura, es dura, es muy dura,
es muy dura la lluvia que va a caer.

¿Y ahora qué harás, mi hijo preferido?
¿Y ahora qué harás, mi joven querido?

Voy a regresar afuera antes que la lluvia comience a caer,
caminaré hacia el abismo del más profundo bosque negro,
donde la gente es mucha y sus manos están vacías,
donde el veneno contamina sus aguas,
donde el hogar en el valle encuentra el desaliento de la sucia prisión,
y la cara del verdugo está siempre bien escondida,
donde el hambre amenaza, donde las almas están olvidadas,
donde el negro es el color, y ninguno el número,
y lo contaré, lo diré, lo pensaré y lo respiraré,
y lo reflejaré desde la montaña para  que todas las almas puedan verlo,
luego me mantendré sobre el océano hasta que comience a hundirme,
pero sabré bien mi canción antes de empezar a cantarla,
y es dura, es dura, es dura, es muy dura,
es muy dura la lluvia que va a caer.

§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...

Lazy Sod - Deep Purple

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...

The Alien - Dream Theater

 The Alien Dream Theater Lyrics: Look beyond the Earth, heading set for the stars Interplanetary, some are near, some are far Terraform a new world, survival for mankind Options but a few, we are running out of time   Should you climb aboard A voyage, the first of its kind Ready to explore All that you've known left behind   Our Holy Grail Now redefined Our purpose, a thread Weaving through time Now with the means to expand Life beyond here, digital man   Alien, changed forever New found world in the stars   Understand the meaning Certain we'll extend the scale of consciousness Woman, child and man Multi planet species out amongst the stars Not stuck in and around who and what we are   Time to climb aboard Countdown to takeoff on time Systems are online (5, 4, 3, 2) Farewell to all humankind (1)   Our Holy Grail Clearly defined Our purpose, a thread Weaving through time Now wi...
