Lyrics Translation

The roses are heavy
With rain and for ages
veil after veil
And the pictures are whispering
The ones we belong to
Caught in forever
Startled and proud, all laughing together

And babe, if you'd met him
I picture you'd sit
Blasting my wisdom
With two barrelled wit
Then he'd steal you for dancing
And you'd lend him your arms
And I'd stooge for your laughing
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm

The roses are heavy
With rain and for ages
veil after veil
And the pictures are whispering
He'd steal you for dancing
And you'd lend him your arms
And I'd stooge for your laughing
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm

The roses are heavy
As rosas estão pesadas
With rain and for ages
Com chuva e por eras
veil after veil
véu após véu
And the pictures are whispering
E as imagens estão sussurrando
The ones we belong to
Aqueles a quem pertencemos
Caught in forever
Presos para sempre
Startled and proud, all laughing together
Assustados e orgulhosos, todos rindo juntos
And babe, if you'd met him
E querida, se você o tivesse conhecido
I picture you'd sit
Imagino que você se sentaria
Blasting my wisdom
Explodindo minha sabedoria
With two barrelled wit
Com um humor de dois canos
Then he'd steal you for dancing
Então ele te roubaria para dançar
And you'd lend him your arms
E você lhe emprestaria seus braços
And I'd stooge for your laughing
E eu seria o bobo para o seu riso
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
E você giraria no caos do charme
The roses are heavy
As rosas estão pesadas
With rain and for ages
Com chuva e por eras
veil after veil
véu após véu
And the pictures are whispering
E as imagens estão sussurrando
He'd steal you for dancing
Ele te roubaria para dançar
And you'd lend him your arms
E você lhe emprestaria seus braços
And I'd stooge for your laughing
E eu seria o bobo para o seu riso
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
E você giraria no caos do charme
The roses are heavy
Las rosas están pesadas
With rain and for ages
Con lluvia y por edades
veil after veil
velo tras velo
And the pictures are whispering
Y las imágenes están susurrando
The ones we belong to
A las que pertenecemos
Caught in forever
Atrapados en la eternidad
Startled and proud, all laughing together
Sorprendidos y orgullosos, todos riendo juntos
And babe, if you'd met him
Y cariño, si lo hubieras conocido
I picture you'd sit
Imagino que te sentarías
Blasting my wisdom
Destrozando mi sabiduría
With two barrelled wit
Con ingenio de doble cañón
Then he'd steal you for dancing
Luego te robaría para bailar
And you'd lend him your arms
Y le prestarías tus brazos
And I'd stooge for your laughing
Y yo haría el tonto por tu risa
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
Y te envolverías en el caos del encanto
The roses are heavy
Las rosas están pesadas
With rain and for ages
Con lluvia y por edades
veil after veil
velo tras velo
And the pictures are whispering
Y las imágenes están susurrando
He'd steal you for dancing
Te robaría para bailar
And you'd lend him your arms
Y le prestarías tus brazos
And I'd stooge for your laughing
Y yo haría el tonto por tu risa
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
Y te envolverías en el caos del encanto
The roses are heavy
Les roses sont lourdes
With rain and for ages
De pluie et depuis des siècles
veil after veil
Voile après voile
And the pictures are whispering
Et les images chuchotent
The ones we belong to
Celles auxquelles nous appartenons
Caught in forever
Pris dans l'éternité
Startled and proud, all laughing together
Effrayés et fiers, tous riant ensemble
And babe, if you'd met him
Et chérie, si tu l'avais rencontré
I picture you'd sit
Je t'imagine assise
Blasting my wisdom
Blastant ma sagesse
With two barrelled wit
Avec un esprit à deux canons
Then he'd steal you for dancing
Puis il te volerait pour danser
And you'd lend him your arms
Et tu lui prêterais tes bras
And I'd stooge for your laughing
Et je jouerais le rôle du bouffon pour ton rire
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
Et tu tourbillonnerais dans le chaos du charme
The roses are heavy
Les roses sont lourdes
With rain and for ages
De pluie et depuis des siècles
veil after veil
Voile après voile
And the pictures are whispering
Et les images chuchotent
He'd steal you for dancing
Il te volerait pour danser
And you'd lend him your arms
Et tu lui prêterais tes bras
And I'd stooge for your laughing
Et je jouerais le rôle du bouffon pour ton rire
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
Et tu tourbillonnerais dans le chaos du charme
The roses are heavy
Die Rosen sind schwer
With rain and for ages
Mit Regen und seit Äonen
veil after veil
Schleier nach Schleier
And the pictures are whispering
Und die Bilder flüstern
The ones we belong to
Die, zu denen wir gehören
Caught in forever
Gefangen in der Ewigkeit
Startled and proud, all laughing together
Erschrocken und stolz, alle zusammen lachend
And babe, if you'd met him
Und Schatz, wenn du ihn getroffen hättest
I picture you'd sit
Ich stelle mir vor, du würdest sitzen
Blasting my wisdom
Meine Weisheit zerschmetternd
With two barrelled wit
Mit doppelläufigem Witz
Then he'd steal you for dancing
Dann würde er dich zum Tanzen stehlen
And you'd lend him your arms
Und du würdest ihm deine Arme leihen
And I'd stooge for your laughing
Und ich würde für dein Lachen den Trottel spielen
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
Und du würdest im Chaos des Charmes wirbeln
The roses are heavy
Die Rosen sind schwer
With rain and for ages
Mit Regen und seit Äonen
veil after veil
Schleier nach Schleier
And the pictures are whispering
Und die Bilder flüstern
He'd steal you for dancing
Er würde dich zum Tanzen stehlen
And you'd lend him your arms
Und du würdest ihm deine Arme leihen
And I'd stooge for your laughing
Und ich würde für dein Lachen den Trottel spielen
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
Und du würdest im Chaos des Charmes wirbeln
The roses are heavy
Le rose sono pesanti
With rain and for ages
Con la pioggia e per secoli
veil after veil
velo dopo velo
And the pictures are whispering
E le immagini stanno sussurrando
The ones we belong to
Quelle a cui apparteniamo
Caught in forever
Intrappolati per sempre
Startled and proud, all laughing together
Sorpresi e orgogliosi, tutti ridono insieme
And babe, if you'd met him
E tesoro, se l'avessi incontrato
I picture you'd sit
Immagino che ti siederesti
Blasting my wisdom
Sparando la mia saggezza
With two barrelled wit
Con un ingegno a due canne
Then he'd steal you for dancing
Poi ti ruberebbe per ballare
And you'd lend him your arms
E tu gli presteresti le tue braccia
And I'd stooge for your laughing
E io farei il buffone per le tue risate
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
E tu ti agiteresti nel caos del fascino
The roses are heavy
Le rose sono pesanti
With rain and for ages
Con la pioggia e per secoli
veil after veil
velo dopo velo
And the pictures are whispering
E le immagini stanno sussurrando
He'd steal you for dancing
Ti ruberebbe per ballare
And you'd lend him your arms
E tu gli presteresti le tue braccia
And I'd stooge for your laughing
E io farei il buffone per le tue risate
And you'd swirl in the chaos of charm
E tu ti agiteresti nel caos del fascino
