The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows
Andre De Ridder, Damon Albarn, Simon Tong, John Clare
You were gone, the dark journey there
Leaves no returning
It's fruitless for me to mourn you
But, who can help mourning?
To think of life, that did laugh on your face
In the beautiful past left so desolate now
When you've seemed immortal
So sweet it did we
Heaven's halo around you
Earth's hope to deceive
You were the fairest and dearest
Where many were fair, to my heart you were nearest
The year has it's winter as well as it's May
The sweetest leavers and the fairest decay
The nearer the fountain, more pure the stream flows
To think of life, that did laugh on your face
In the beautiful past left so desolate now
When you've seemed immortal
So sweet it did we
Heaven's halo around you
Around you
Earth's hope to deceive
Around you
Around you
The nearer the fountain, more pure the stream flows
You were gone, the dark journey there
Você se foi, a jornada escura ali
Leaves no returning
Não deixa retorno
It's fruitless for me to mourn you
É inútil para mim lamentar você
But, who can help mourning?
Mas, quem pode ajudar a lamentar?
To think of life, that did laugh on your face
Pensar na vida, que ria em seu rosto
In the beautiful past left so desolate now
No belo passado agora tão desolado
When you've seemed immortal
Quando você parecia imortal
So sweet it did we
Tão doce nos fez
Heaven's halo around you
A auréola do céu ao seu redor
Earth's hope to deceive
A esperança da Terra para enganar
You were the fairest and dearest
Você era o mais belo e querido
Where many were fair, to my heart you were nearest
Onde muitos eram belos, para o meu coração você era o mais próximo
The year has it's winter as well as it's May
O ano tem seu inverno, assim como seu maio
The sweetest leavers and the fairest decay
Os mais doces partem e os mais belos decaem
The nearer the fountain, more pure the stream flows
Quanto mais perto a fonte, mais puro o fluxo do riacho
To think of life, that did laugh on your face
Pensar na vida, que ria em seu rosto
In the beautiful past left so desolate now
No belo passado agora tão desolado
When you've seemed immortal
Quando você parecia imortal
So sweet it did we
