The Tide Is Turning (After Live Aid)

Roger Waters

Letra Traducción

(Morse Code repeats in the background)

[Verse 1]
I used to think the world was flat
Rarely threw my hat into the crowd
I felt I had used up my quota of yearning
Used to look in on the children at night
In the glow of their Donald Duck light
And frighten myself with the thought of my little ones burning

[Hook]
But ooh, the tide is turning
The tide is turning

[Verse 2]
Satellite buzzing through the endless night
Exclusive to moonshots and world title fights
Jesus Christ, imagine what it must be earning
Who is the strongest? Who is the best?
Who holds the aces, the East or the West?
This is the crap that our children are learning

[Hook]
But ooh, the tide is turning
(Ooh) The tide is turning
The tide is turning
(Ooh, the tide is turning)

[Verse 3]
Now the satellite's confused
Cause on Saturday night
The airwaves were full of compassion and light
And his silicon heart warmed to the sight
Of a billion candles burning

[Hook]
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
The tide is turning, Billy

[Verse 4]
I'm not saying the battle is won
But on Saturday night all those kids in the sun
Wrested technology's sword from the hands of the warlords

[Hook]
Ooh, the tide is turning
Ooh, the tide is turning
The tide is turning, Sylvester

[Outro]
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)
(Ooh, the tide is turning)

[Verse 1]
I used to think the world was flat
قبلا فکر می‌کردم زمین تخت است
Rarely threw my hat into the crowd
به ندرت درون جمعیت [از خوشحالی] کلاهم را به هوا پرت کردم
I felt I had used up my quota of yearning
حس کردم از سهمیه آرزوهایم دلزده شدم
Used to look in on the children at night
شب‌ها نگاهی به کودکان می‌انداختم
In the glow of their Donald Duck light
زیر نور چراغ دانلد داک‌شان
And frighten myself with the thought of my little ones burning
و خودم را با فکر آتش گرفتن فرزند کوچکم می‌ترساندم

[Hook]
But, oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
اما، آه، آه، جذر و مد ادامه دارد
The tide is turning
جذر و مد ادامه دارد

[Verse 2]
Satellite buzzing through the endless night
ماهواره تمام این شب بی‌انتها وز وز می‌کند
Exclusive to moonshots and world title fights
مخصوص ماه‌نورد‌ها و جنگ‌ها بر سر عنوان قهرمانی جهان
Jesus Christ imagine what it must be earning
یا حضرت مسیح! فکر کن چه چیزی قرار است به دست بیاید!
Who is the strongest
اینکه چه کسی قو‌ی‌ترین است
Who is the best
اینکه چه کسی بهترین است
Who holds the aces
اینکه چه کسی تکِ خال را دارد
The East
شرق
Or the West
یا غرب

This is the crap our children are learning
این تفاله‌ای است که فرزندانمان یاد می‌گیرند

[Hook]
But oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
اما، آه، آه، آه، جذر و مد ادامه دارد
The tide is turning
جذر و مد ادامه دارد
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
آه، آه، آه، جذر و مد ادامه دارد

[Verse 3]
Now the satellite's confused
حالا ماهواره گیج شده است
'Cause on Saturday night
به خاطر شنبه شب
The airwaves were full of compassion and light
امواج پر از شفقت و نور بودند
And his silicon heart warmed
و قلب سلیکونی او گرم شده
To the sight of a billion candles burning
از نور میلیاردها شمع فروزنده

[Hook]
Oo, oo, oo, the tide is turning
Oo, oo, oo, the tide is turning
The tide is turning Billy

[Verse 4]
I'm not saying that the battle is won
من نمی‌گویم که آن‌ها در جنگ پیروز شدند
But on Saturday night all those kids in the sun
اما شنبه شب تمام آن کودکان در نور خورشید
Wrested technology's sword from the hand of the war lords
شمشیرهای تکنولوژی را از چنگ اربابان جنگ درآوردند

[Hook]
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
آه، آه، آه باز جذر می‌رود و مد می‌آید
The tide is turning Sylvester
سیلوستر [استالونه] جذر می‌رود و مد می‌آید
The tide is turning
