If I Die Young
Kimberly Perry
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh uh oh
Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when
She stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well, I've had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin.
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough (time)
Ooh yeah
Ooh whoa
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'
If I die young
Bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh (uh oh)
The ballad of a dove (uh oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears
Keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh

Acuéstate en una cama de rosas
Sink me in the river at dawn
Húndeme en el río al amanecer
Send me away with the words of a love song
Despídeme con las palabras de una canción de amor
Uh oh uh oh
Uh oh uh oh
Lord make me a rainbow
Señor, hazme un arco iris
I'll shine down on my mother
Iluminaré a mi madre
She'll know I'm safe with you when
Ella sabrá que estoy a salvo contigo cuando
She stands under my colors, oh and
Se pare bajo mis colores, oh y
Life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no
La vida no siempre es lo que crees que debería ser, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
Ni siquiera es gris, pero ella entierra a su bebé

Y llevaré blanco cuando entre en tu reino
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
Soy tan verde como el anillo en mi dedo pequeño y frío
I've never known the lovin' of a man
Nunca he conocido el amor de un hombre
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
Pero se sintió bien cuando él sostenía mi mano
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Hay un chico aquí en la ciudad que dice que me amará para siempre

They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
Valen mucho más después de que me haya ido

Y tal vez entonces escuches las palabras que he estado cantando
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

If I die young
ถ้าฉันตายเร็ว ๆ นี้
Bury me in satin
ฝังฉันด้วยผ้าซาติน
Lay me down on a bed of roses
นอนฉันลงบนเตียงกุหลาบ
Sink me in the river at dawn
จมฉันในแม่น้ำตอนรุ่งสาง
Send me away with the words of a love song
ส่งฉันไปพร้อมกับคำพูดของเพลงรัก
Uh oh (uh oh)
อื้อ โอ้ (อื้อ โอ้)
The ballad of a dove (uh oh)
บทเพลงของนกพิราบ (อื้อ โอ้)
Go with peace and love
ไปด้วยสันติภาพและความรัก
Gather up your tears
รวบรวมน้ำตาของคุณ
Keep 'em in your pocket
เก็บไว้ในกระเป๋าของคุณ
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh
เก็บไว้สำหรับเวลาที่คุณจริงๆ ต้องการมัน, โอ้
The sharp knife of a short life
มีดคมของชีวิตสั้น ๆ
Well I've had just enough (time)
เอาล่ะ ฉันมีเวลาพอ (เวลา)
So put on your best boys
เพราะฉะนั้นใส่ชุดที่ดีที่สุดของคุณ
And I'll wear my pearls
และฉันจะสวมมุกของฉัน
