Goodness goodness

Dios mío

One two, one two three four

Uno dos, uno dos tres cuatro

The sister of sunlight

La hermana de la luz del sol

Comes to my lonely life

Viene a mi vida solitaria

Bearing the crosses

llevando las cruces

I hung on my lonely wife

Colgué de mi esposa solitaria

And the anchor told me

Y el presentador me dijo

If I prayed by the river

Si orara junto al río

That the sweet sound of water

que el dulce sonido del agua

Would always go with her

siempre iria con ella

All across the havens

Por todos los paraísos

To the waterfall

a la cascada

They told me I would meet her there

Me dijeron que la encontraría allí.

Inside those icy walls

Dentro de esas paredes heladas

But how on earth in this universe

Pero ¿cómo diablos en este universo?

Can they forgive me of my pains?

¿Podrán perdonarme mis dolores?

For all across the havens

Para todos los paraísos

I must stumble locked in chains

Debo tropezar encerrado en cadenas

Then the mother of mercy

Entonces la madre de la misericordia

Showed me her stable

Me mostró su establo

And told me that you would be safe

Y me dijo que estarías a salvo

Safe in her cradle

A salvo en su cuna

And the waterfall opened

Y la cascada se abrió

And the water withdrew

Y el agua se retiró

Leavin' me standing

Dejándome de pie

On a road leading through

En un camino que conduce a través

All across the havens

Por todos los paraísos

To the waterfall

a la cascada

They told me that I would meet her there

Me dijeron que allí la encontraría.

Inside those icy walls

Dentro de esas paredes heladas

But how on earth in this universe

Pero ¿cómo diablos en este universo?

Can they forgive me of my pains?

¿Podrán perdonarme mis dolores?

For all across the havens

Para todos los paraísos

I must stumble locked in chains

Debo tropezar encerrado en cadenas
