The Fisherman Of Ephesus - Jethro Tull

 The Fisherman Of Ephesus

Jethro Tull


Lyrics:

[Acts 5:40-42]

 

Ten set out along the rocky road

To suffer for their saintly sins

The great betrayer gone missing

Having topped himself or split his skin

Now, the young beloved one

Last son of father Zebedee

Comes to the town of Ephesus

To spin the lure and reel them in

 

Casts a line, sits waiting quietly

For the telltale nibble to reveal

The passing curiosity

The inner need, the faint appeal

Sings sweetly for his supper

Sings of miracles and fairy tales

Of barley loaves and two small fish

Of barley loaves and two small fish

To make, for multitudes, a meal

 

Fisherman of Ephesus

Surveys the spirits' battleground

Flag was flown, a story told

Of crucifix and thorny crown

Hard to go on living

With the guilt of chance survival

All alone to fall from sky

Crash landing on arrival

To walk again the rocky road

No martyrdom to comfort

Wait out the years to join the ten

In fairytale revival

 

The test of Poison cup

A little boiling oil along the way

On isle of Artemis to toil

Write memoirs at the end of day

Then back to lie in Ephesus

Along amongst the dozen

As harbour slowly suffocates

And the catch has swum far away

 

Fisherman of Ephesus:

Did he know the fate of others?

Their sticky end, the harsh rebuttal

He alone without his brothers

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Letra:

[Hechos 5:40-42]

 

Diez partieron por el camino pedregoso

Para sufrir por sus santos pecados

El gran traidor desaparecido

Habiéndose rematado o partido la piel

Ahora, el joven amado

Último hijo del padre Zebedeo

Llega a la ciudad de Éfeso

Para lanzar el señuelo y enrollarlos

 

Lanza un señuelo, se sienta esperando en silencio

Para que el mordisco revelador aparezca

La curiosidad pasajera

La necesidad interior, el débil atractivo

Canta dulcemente para preparar su cena

Canta sobre milagros y cuentos de hadas

De panes de cebada y dos pececillos

De panes de cebada y dos pececillos

Para hacer, para multitudes, una comida.

 

Pescador de Éfeso

Inspecciona el campo de batalla de los espíritus

Se ondeó la bandera, se contó una historia

De un crucifijo y una corona de espinas

Difícil es seguir viviendo

Con la culpa de la supervivencia casual

Solo para caer del cielo

Un aterrizaje forzoso a la llegada

Para recorrer de nuevo el camino rocoso

No hay martirio para consolar

Espera unos años para unirte a los diez

En el renacimiento de los cuentos de hadas

 

La prueba de la copa de veneno

Un poco de aceite hirviendo en el camino

En la isla de Artemisa para trabajar

Escribir memorias al final del día.

Luego de vuelta a mentir en Éfeso

A lo largo de la docena

Mientras el puerto se sofoca lentamente

Y la captura ha nadado lejos

 

Pescador de Éfeso:

¿Sabía el destino de los demás?

Su final pegajoso, la dura refutación

Él solo sin sus hermanos

§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...
