Maggie's Song
Christopher Alvin Stapleton
Let me tell you a story
About an old friend of mine
Somebody left her in a shopping cart
In a parking lot for us to find
Just a fuzzy black pup
She was hungry and feeling alone
We put her in the back seat
Told her we were taking her home
Run, Maggie run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie run
Be just as free as you are wild
A few kids later
We moved out on the farm
And she followed those kids around
Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
And she loved to chase squirrels
And playing out in the snow
She'd take off like a bullet
Man, you should have seen her go
Run, Maggie run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie run
Be just as free as you are wild
It was raining on a Monday
The day that Maggie died
She woke up and couldn't use her legs
So I laid down by her side
She put her head on my hand
Like she'd done so many times
I told her she was a good dog
Then I told her goodbye
Run, Maggie run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie run
Be just as free as you are wild
I had a revelation
As the tractor dug a hole
I can tell you right now
That a dog has a soul
And I thought to myself
As we buried her on the hill
I never knew me a better dog
And I guess I never will
Run, Maggie run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie run
Be just as free as you are wild
Oh, run, Maggie run
With the heart of a rebel child
Oh, run, Maggie run
Be just as free as you are wild
Let me tell you a story
Déjame contarte una historia
About an old friend of mine
Sobre un viejo amigo mío
Somebody left her in a shopping cart
Alguien la dejó en un carrito de compras
In a parking lot for us to find
En un estacionamiento para que encontráramos
Just a fuzzy black pup
Solo un cachorro negro velloso
She was hungry and feeling alone
Tenía hambre y se sentía sola
We put her in the back seat
La pusimos en el asiento trasero
Told her we were taking her home
Le dijimos que la llevaríamos a casa
Run, Maggie run
Corre, Maggie corre
With the heart of a rebel child
Con el corazón de un niño rebelde
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corre, Maggie corre
Be just as free as you are wild
Sé tan libre como eres salvaje
A few kids later
Unos niños más tarde
We moved out on the farm
Nos mudamos a la finca
And she followed those kids around
Y ella siguió a esos niños
Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
Sí, ella los mantuvo a salvo de cualquier daño
And she loved to chase squirrels
Y le encantaba perseguir ardillas
And playing out in the snow
Y jugando en la nieve
She'd take off like a bullet
Ella salía como una bala
Man, you should have seen her go
Hombre, deberías haberla visto
Run, Maggie run
Corre, Maggie corre
With the heart of a rebel child
Con el corazón de un niño rebelde
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corre, Maggie corre
Be just as free as you are wild
Sé tan libre como eres salvaje
It was raining on a Monday
Estaba lloviendo un lunes
The day that Maggie died
El día que Maggie murió
She woke up and couldn't use her legs
Se despertó y no podía usar sus piernas
So I laid down by her side
Así que me acosté a su lado
She put her head on my hand
Ella puso su cabeza en mi mano
Like she'd done so many times
Como lo había hecho tantas veces
I told her she was a good dog
Le dije que era un buen perro
Then I told her goodbye
Entonces le dije adiós
Run, Maggie run
Corre Maggie corre
With the heart of a rebel child
Con el corazón de un niño rebelde
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corre, Maggie corre
Be just as free as you are wild
Sé tan libre como eres salvaje
I had a revelation
Tuve una revelación
As the tractor dug a hole
Mientras el tractor cavaba un hoyo
I can tell you right now
Puedo decirte ahora mismo
That a dog has a soul
Que un perro tiene alma
And I thought to myself
Y pensé
As we buried her on the hill
Mientras la enterramos en la colina
I never knew me a better dog
Nunca conocí un mejor perro
And I guess I never will
Y supongo que nunca pasará
Run, Maggie run
Corre Maggie corre
With the heart of a rebel child
Con el corazón de un niño rebelde
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corre, Maggie corre
Be just as free as you are wild
Sé tan libre como eres salvaje
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corre, Maggie corre
With the heart of a rebel child
Con el corazón de un niño rebelde
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corre, Maggie corre
Be just as free as you are wild
Sé tan libre como eres salvaje

Sobre uma velha amiga minha
Somebody left her in a shopping cart
Alguém a deixou em um carrinho de compras
In a parking lot for us to find
Em um estacionamento para nós encontrarmos
Just a fuzzy black pup
Apenas uma pequena cadela preta e peluda
She was hungry and feeling alone
Ela estava com fome e se sentindo sozinha
We put her in the back seat
Nós a colocamos no banco de trás
Told her we were taking her home
Dissemos a ela que estávamos levando-a para casa
Run, Maggie run
Corra, Maggie, corra
With the heart of a rebel child

Alguns filhos depois
We moved out on the farm
Nós nos mudamos para a fazenda
And she followed those kids around
E ela seguia essas crianças por todo lado
Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
Sim, ela os mantinha a salvo de perigo
And she loved to chase squirrels
E ela adorava perseguir esquilos
And playing out in the snow
E brincar na neve
She'd take off like a bullet
Ela saía como uma bala
Man, you should have seen her go
Cara, você deveria ter visto ela correr
Run, Maggie run
Corra, Maggie, corra
With the heart of a rebel child
Com o coração de uma criança rebelde
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corra, Maggie, corra
Be just as free as you are wild
Seja tão livre quanto é selvagem
It was raining on a Monday
Estava chovendo numa segunda-feira
The day that Maggie died
O dia em que Maggie morreu
She woke up and couldn't use her legs
Ela acordou e não conseguia usar as pernas
So I laid down by her side
Então eu me deitei ao lado dela
She put her head on my hand
Ela colocou a cabeça na minha mão
Like she'd done so many times
Como ela fez tantas vezes
I told her she was a good dog
Eu disse a ela que ela era uma boa cadela
Then I told her goodbye
Então eu disse adeus a ela
Run, Maggie run
Corra, Maggie, corra
With the heart of a rebel child
Com o coração de uma criança rebelde
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corra, Maggie, corra
Be just as free as you are wild
Seja tão livre quanto é selvagem
I had a revelation
Eu tive uma revelação
As the tractor dug a hole
Enquanto o trator cavava um buraco
I can tell you right now
Eu posso te dizer agora
That a dog has a soul
Que um cachorro tem uma alma
And I thought to myself
E eu pensei comigo mesmo
As we buried her on the hill
Enquanto a enterrávamos na colina
I never knew me a better dog
Eu nunca conheci uma cadela melhor
And I guess I never will
E acho que nunca conhecerei
Run, Maggie run
Corra, Maggie, corra

Let me tell you a story
Lascia che ti racconti una storia
About an old friend of mine
Di un mio vecchio amico
Somebody left her in a shopping cart
Qualcuno l'ha lasciata in un carrello della spesa
In a parking lot for us to find
In un parcheggio così che noi trovassimo
Just a fuzzy black pup
Solo un cucciolo nero sfocato
She was hungry and feeling alone
Lei era affamata e si sentiva sola
We put her in the back seat
L'abbiamo messa sul sedile posteriore
Told her we were taking her home
Le abbiamo detto che l'avremmo portata a casa
Run, Maggie run
Corri, Maggie, corri
With the heart of a rebel child
Con il cuore di un bambino ribelle
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corri, Maggie, corri
Be just as free as you are wild
Sii così libera quanto sei selvaggia
A few kids later
Dopo qualche bambino
We moved out on the farm
Ci siamo trasferiti nella fattoria
And she followed those kids around
E lei seguiva quei bambini in giro
Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
Sì, lei li teneva al sicuro dai pericoli
And she loved to chase squirrels
E amava inseguire gli scoiattoli
And playing out in the snow
E giocare fuori nella neve
She'd take off like a bullet
Scappava come un proiettile
Man, you should have seen her go
Amico, avresti dovuto vederla correre
Run, Maggie run
Corri, Maggie, corri
With the heart of a rebel child
Con il cuore di un bambino ribelle
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corri, Maggie, corri
Be just as free as you are wild
Sii così libera quanto sei selvaggia
It was raining on a Monday
Era un piovoso lunedì
The day that Maggie died
Il giorno in cui Maggie è morta
She woke up and couldn't use her legs
Si è svegliata e non poteva usare le sue gambe
So I laid down by her side
Così mi sono sdraiato al suo fianco
She put her head on my hand
Lei ha messo la sua testa sulla mia mano
Like she'd done so many times
Come ha fatto così tante volte
I told her she was a good dog
Le ho detto che era una brava cagnolina
Then I told her goodbye
Poi le ho detto addio
Run, Maggie run
Corri, Maggie, corri
With the heart of a rebel child
Con il cuore di un bambino ribelle
Oh, run, Maggie run
Oh, corri, Maggie, corri
Be just as free as you are wild
Sii così libera quanto sei selvaggia
I had a revelation
Ho avuto una rivelazione
As the tractor dug a hole
Mentre il trattore scavava un buco
I can tell you right now
Posso dirti ora
That a dog has a soul
Che un cane ha un'anima
And I thought to myself
E ho pensato tra me
As we buried her on the hill
Mentre la seppellivamo sulla collina
I never knew me a better dog
Che non ho mai conosciuto un cane migliore
And I guess I never will
E credo che mai lo farò
Run, Maggie run

In a parking lot for us to find
駐車場で発見されるために
Just a fuzzy black pup
ただの縮れた黒い子犬
She was hungry and feeling alone
彼女は空腹で孤独だった
We put her in the back seat
俺たちは彼女を後部座席に乗せて
Told her we were taking her home
家に連れて帰ると言った
Run, Maggie run
逃げろ、Maggieよ 逃げろ

そう、彼女は彼らを危険から守った
And she loved to chase squirrels
彼女はリスを追うのが好きだった
And playing out in the snow
そして雪の中で遊ぶのも
She'd take off like a bullet
彼女は弾丸のように飛び出す
Man, you should have seen her go
何てこった、彼女が出かけるのを見るべきだったよ
Run, Maggie run
逃げろ、Maggieよ 逃げろ
With the heart of a rebel child

So I laid down by her side
だから横向きに横になった
She put her head on my hand
俺の手に自分の頭を乗せて
Like she'd done so many times
まるで幾度となくそうしてきたように
I told her she was a good dog
良い犬だったと彼女に言った
Then I told her goodbye
そしてサヨナラと言ったんだ
Run, Maggie run
逃げろ、Maggieよ 逃げろ
With the heart of a rebel child
反抗的な子供の心を持って
Oh, run, Maggie run

俺には啓示があった
As the tractor dug a hole
トラクターが穴を掘ると
I can tell you right now
すぐに言える
That a dog has a soul
犬には魂があると
And I thought to myself
そして一人で考えた
As we buried her on the hill
俺たちが彼女を丘に埋めたから
I never knew me a better dog
自分が良い犬だったなんで知らなかった
And I guess I never will
決して知ることはないだろう
Run, Maggie run
逃げろ、Maggieよ 逃げろ
With the heart of a rebel child
反抗的な子供の心を持って
