SEASONS IN THE SUN / TERRY JACKS / NIVEL 2

                   

Goodbye to you my trusted friend

Adios mi amigo de confianza

We’ve known each other since we were nine or ten

Nos conocimos desde que teníamos 9 o 10

Together we climbed hills and trees

Juntos escalamos colinas y árboles

Learned of love and A B C’s

Aprendimos sobre el amor y el abecedario

Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees

Compartimos el sufrimiento y (también) nos

raspamos (incontables ocasiones) las rodillas

Goodbye my friend it’s hard to die

Adiós mi amigo, es difícil (aceptar el) morir

When all the birds are singing in the sky

Cuando aún todas las aves trinan en el cielo

Now that the spring is in the air

Ahora que la primavera está en el aire

= ya está aquí

Pretty girls are everywhere

Lindas chicas por doquier

Think of me and I’ll be there

Piensa en mi y ahí estaré

We had joy we had fun

Supimos de la alegría y nos divertimos

We had seasons in the sun

Pasamos (incontables) estaciones =

temporadas en el sol

But the hills that we climbed were just seasons

Pero las colinas que escalamos,

fueron tan sólo estaciones

Out of time......

Fuera de temporada

Goodbye Papa please pray for me

Adiós Papá por favor ruega por mi

I was the black sheep of the family

(Siempre) fui la oveja negra de la familia

You tried to teach me right from wrong

Tu intentaste enseñarme

(a diferenciar entre) el bien y el mal

Too much wine and too much song

Demasiado vino y demasiadas canciones

Wonder how I got along

Me  pregunto cómo pude soportar tanto

Goodbye Papa its hard to die

Adiós Papá es difícil (aceptar el) morir

When all the birds are singing in the sky

Now that the spring is in the air

Little children everywhere

Pequeñines por doquier

When you see them I’ll be there

Cuando los veas (también) ahí estaré

We had joy we had fun

We had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons

Pero el vino y las canciones al igual que las estaciones

Have all gone

Todas se han marchado

We had joy we had fun

We had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons

Have all gone

Goodbye Michelle my little one

Adios Michelle mi pequeñita

You gave me love and helped me find the sun

Me diste amor y me diste una razón para vivir

And every time that I was down

Y cada que me sentía deprimido

You would always come around

Te mantenias siempre al tanto

And get my feet back on the ground

Y me hacías poner los pies en la tierra

Goodbye Michelle it’s hard to die

When all the birds are singing in the sky

Now that the spring is in the air

With the flowers everywhere

Con (hemosas) flores por doquier

I wish that we could both be there

Deseare (que) podamos ambos estar ahí

We had joy we had fun

We had seasons in the sun

But the stars we could reach

Pero las únicas estrellas que pudimos alcanzar

Were just starfish on the beach

Fueron (tan) sólo las estrellas de mar en la playa

We had joy we had fun

We had seasons in the sun

But the stars we could reach

Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy we had fun

We had seasons in the sun

But the wine and the song like the seasons

Have all gone...
