River Man

Nick Drake

Letra Traducción

Betty came by on her way
Said she had a word to say
About things today
And fallen leaves.

Said she hadn't heard the news
Hadn't had the time to choose
A way to lose
But she believes.

Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
About the plan
For lilac time.

If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
And all night shows
In summertime.

Betty said she prayed today
For the sky to blow away
Or maybe stay
She wasn't sure.

For when she thought of summer rain
Calling for her mind again
She lost the pain
And stayed for more.

Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
About the ban
On feeling free.

If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
I don't suppose
It's meant for me.

Oh, how they come and go
Oh, how they come and go.

Betty came by on her way
Betty pasó de camino
Said she had a word to say
Dijo que tenía una palabra que decir
About things today
Sobre las cosas de hoy
And fallen leaves.
Y las hojas caídas.
Said she hadn't heard the news
Dijo que no había escuchado las noticias
Hadn't had the time to choose
No había tenido tiempo para elegir
A way to lose
Una forma de perder
But she believes.
Pero ella cree.
Going to see the river man
Voy a ver al hombre del río
Going to tell him all I can
Voy a contarle todo lo que puedo
About the plan
Sobre el plan
For lilac time.
Para el tiempo de los lilas.
If he tells me all he knows
Si me cuenta todo lo que sabe
About the way his river flows
Sobre cómo fluye su río
And all night shows
Y todos los espectáculos nocturnos
In summertime.
En el verano.
Betty said she prayed today
Betty dijo que rezó hoy
For the sky to blow away
Para que el cielo se desvanezca
Or maybe stay
O tal vez se quede
She wasn't sure.
No estaba segura.
For when she thought of summer rain
Porque cuando pensaba en la lluvia de verano
Calling for her mind again
Llamando a su mente de nuevo
She lost the pain
Perdió el dolor
And stayed for more.
Y se quedó para más.
Going to see the river man
Voy a ver al hombre del río
Going to tell him all I can
Voy a contarle todo lo que puedo
About the ban
Sobre la prohibición
On feeling free.
De sentirse libre.
If he tells me all he knows
Si me cuenta todo lo que sabe
About the way his river flows
Sobre cómo fluye su río
I don't suppose
No supongo
It's meant for me.
Que esté destinado para mí.
Oh, how they come and go
Oh, cómo vienen y van
Oh, how they come and go.
Oh, cómo vienen y van.
Betty came by on her way
Betty passou por aqui a caminho
Said she had a word to say
Disse que tinha uma palavra para dizer
About things today
Sobre as coisas hoje
And fallen leaves.
E folhas caídas.
Said she hadn't heard the news
Disse que não tinha ouvido as notícias
Hadn't had the time to choose
Não tinha tido tempo para escolher
A way to lose
Uma maneira de perder
But she believes.
Mas ela acredita.
Going to see the river man
Vou ver o homem do rio
Going to tell him all I can
Vou contar-lhe tudo o que posso
About the plan
Sobre o plano
For lilac time.
Para a época das lilases.
If he tells me all he knows
Se ele me contar tudo o que sabe
About the way his river flows
Sobre o caminho que o seu rio flui
And all night shows
E todos os shows noturnos
In summertime.
No verão.
Betty said she prayed today
Betty disse que orou hoje
For the sky to blow away
Para o céu se dissipar
Or maybe stay
Ou talvez ficar
She wasn't sure.
Ela não tinha certeza.
For when she thought of summer rain
Pois quando ela pensou na chuva de verão
Calling for her mind again
Chamando por sua mente novamente
She lost the pain
Ela perdeu a dor
And stayed for more.
E ficou por mais.
Going to see the river man
Vou ver o homem do rio
Going to tell him all I can
Vou contar-lhe tudo o que posso
About the ban
Sobre a proibição
On feeling free.
De se sentir livre.
If he tells me all he knows
Se ele me contar tudo o que sabe
About the way his river flows
Sobre o caminho que o seu rio flui
I don't suppose
Não suponho
It's meant for me.
Que seja para mim.
Oh, how they come and go
Oh, como eles vêm e vão
Oh, how they come and go.
Oh, como eles vêm e vão.
