Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Gordon Lightfoot
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy
With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more
Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty
That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed
When the gales of November came early
The ship was the pride of the American side
Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin
As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
And later that night when the ship's bell rang
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?
The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound
And a wave broke over the railing
And every man knew, as the captain did too
T'was the witch of November come stealin'
The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait
When the gales of November came slashin'
When afternoon came it was freezin' rain
In the face of a hurricane west wind
When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin'
"Fellas, it's too rough to feed ya"
At 7 PM, a main hatchway caved in, he said
"Fellas, it's been good to know ya"
The captain wired in he had water comin' in
And the good ship and crew was in peril
And later that night when his lights went outta sight
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Does any one know where the love of God goes
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay
If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her
They might have split up or they might have capsized
They may have broke deep and took water
And all that remains is the faces and the names
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters
Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
In the rooms of her ice-water mansion
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams
The islands and bays are for sportsmen
And farther below Lake Ontario
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know
With the gales of November remembered
In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed
In the maritime sailors' cathedral
The church bell chimed 'til it rang twenty-nine times
For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
When the gales of November come early
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
A lenda vive desde os Chippewa até agora
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
Do grande lago que chamam de Gitche Gumee
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
O lago, dizem, nunca entrega seus mortos
When the skies of November turn gloomy
Quando os céus de novembro se tornam sombrios
With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more
Com uma carga de minério de ferro vinte e seis mil toneladas a mais
Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty
Do que o Edmund Fitzgerald pesava vazio
That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed
Esse bom e verdadeiro navio era um osso a ser roído
When the gales of November came early
Quando os ventos de novembro chegaram cedo
The ship was the pride of the American side
O navio era o orgulho do lado americano
Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin
Voltando de algum moinho em Wisconsin
As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most
Como os grandes cargueiros vão, era maior que a maioria
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
Com uma tripulação e um bom capitão bem experientes
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
Concluindo alguns termos com um par de empresas de aço
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
Quando partiram totalmente carregados para Cleveland
And later that night when the ship's bell rang
E mais tarde naquela noite quando o sino do navio tocou
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?
Poderia ser o vento norte que eles estavam sentindo?
The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound
O vento nos fios fez um som de fofoca
And a wave broke over the railing
E uma onda quebrou sobre a amurada
And every man knew, as the captain did too
E todo homem sabia, como o capitão também sabia
T'was the witch of November come stealin'
Era a bruxa de novembro vindo roubar
The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait
O amanhecer veio tarde e o café da manhã teve que esperar
When the gales of November came slashin'
Quando os ventos de novembro vieram cortando
When afternoon came it was freezin' rain
Quando a tarde chegou, era chuva congelante
In the face of a hurricane west wind
Na face de um vento oeste de furacão
When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin'
Quando chegou a hora do jantar, o velho cozinheiro veio ao convés dizendo
"Fellas, it's too rough to feed ya"
"Rapazes, está muito agitado para alimentá-los"
At 7 PM, a main hatchway caved in, he said
Às 7 da noite, uma escotilha principal cedeu, ele disse
"Fellas, it's been good to know ya"
"Rapazes, foi bom conhecê-los"
The captain wired in he had water comin' in
O capitão enviou um telegrama dizendo que tinha água entrando
And the good ship and crew was in peril
E o bom navio e a tripulação estavam em perigo
And later that night when his lights went outta sight
E mais tarde naquela noite quando suas luzes saíram de vista
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Veio o naufrágio do Edmund Fitzgerald
Does any one know where the love of God goes
Alguém sabe para onde vai o amor de Deus
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
Quando as ondas transformam os minutos em horas?
The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay
Os pesquisadores todos dizem que teriam chegado à Baía de Whitefish
If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her
Se tivessem colocado mais quinze milhas atrás dela
They might have split up or they might have capsized
Eles poderiam ter se separado ou poderiam ter virado
They may have broke deep and took water
Eles podem ter quebrado profundamente e tomado água
And all that remains is the faces and the names
E tudo que resta são os rostos e os nomes
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters
Das esposas e dos filhos e das filhas

Pukul 7 malam, sebuah pintu utama runtuh, katanya
"Fellas, it's been good to know ya"
"Temanku, senang mengenalmu"
The captain wired in he had water comin' in
Kapten mengirimkan kawat dia memiliki air masuk
And the good ship and crew was in peril
Dan kapal baik dan awak dalam bahaya
And later that night when his lights went outta sight
Dan malam itu ketika lampunya mati
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Datanglah bangkai Edmund Fitzgerald
Does any one know where the love of God goes
Apakah ada yang tahu di mana cinta Tuhan pergi
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
Ketika gelombang mengubah menit menjadi jam?
The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay
Para pencari semua mengatakan mereka akan mencapai Teluk Whitefish
If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her
Jika mereka menempuh lima belas mil lebih jauh
They might have split up or they might have capsized
Mereka mungkin telah berpisah atau mereka mungkin telah terbalik
They may have broke deep and took water
Mereka mungkin telah pecah dalam dan mengambil air
And all that remains is the faces and the names
Dan yang tersisa hanyalah wajah dan nama
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters
Dari istri dan anak laki-laki dan anak perempuan
Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
Danau Huron bergulir, Superior bernyanyi
In the rooms of her ice-water mansion
Di ruangan istana air esnya
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams
Michigan Tua menguap seperti mimpi seorang pemuda
The islands and bays are for sportsmen
Pulau dan teluk adalah untuk olahragawan
And farther below Lake Ontario
Dan lebih jauh di bawah Danau Ontario
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
Menerima apa yang Danau Erie bisa kirimkan
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know
Dan perahu besi pergi seperti semua pelaut tahu
With the gales of November remembered
Dengan angin kencang November diingat
In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed
Di aula tua yang berbau di Detroit mereka berdoa
In the maritime sailors' cathedral
Di katedral pelaut maritim
The church bell chimed 'til it rang twenty-nine times
Lonceng gereja berdentang sampai berbunyi dua puluh sembilan kali
For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald
Untuk setiap orang di Edmund Fitzgerald
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Legenda itu hidup dari Chippewa ke bawah
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
Dari danau besar yang mereka sebut Gitche Gumee
Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
Superior, mereka katakan, tidak pernah menyerahkan mayatnya

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
伝説はChippewaに息づいている

11月の空が暗くなる頃
With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more
2万6千トン以上の鉄鉱石を積み
Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty
エドモンド・フィッツジェラルド号よりも重たかった

その船の骨はかじられようとしていた
When the gales of November came early
11月の強風が早めに吹いた頃に
The ship was the pride of the American side
その船はアメリカのプライドであった
Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin
ウィスコンシンの工場から戻って来ていた
As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most
その大きな貨物船が進むにつれ、より大きく最大級となった
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
乗組員と経験豊富な船長
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
いくつかの鉄鋼会社と条件を結び
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
クリーブランドへと最大限の積み荷で出航した
And later that night when the ship's bell rang
そしてその夜遅く船のベルが鳴った
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?
彼らの感じている北風のせいなのか?
The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound
ワイヤーに吹く風は音を立て
And a wave broke over the railing
波はレールに押し寄せた
And every man knew, as the captain did too
船員全員が知っていた、船長も同じように
T'was the witch of November come stealin'
11月の魔女が盗みに来たのだと
The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait
夜明けは遅く朝食は待たなければならなかった
When the gales of November came slashin'
11月の強風が猛烈に吹いた時
When afternoon came it was freezin' rain
午後は凍りつく雨が降り出した

西風のハリケーンの中
When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin'

「仲間たちよ、知り合えてよかった」と
The captain wired in he had water comin' in
戦勝は浸水が始まったことを無線で伝えた
And the good ship and crew was in peril
船と船員たちには危機が差し迫っていた
And later that night when his lights went outta sight
そしてその夜遅く、明かりが消え
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
エドモンド・フィッツジェラルド号は沈没した
Does any one know where the love of God goes
神の愛がどこへ行ったのか誰か知る者はいるか?
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
波が分から時間へと続く時に
The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay
捜索者はみな、Whitefish Bayへたどり着いていたらと言った
If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her
もしあと15マイル進めていたら
They might have split up or they might have capsized
船は裂けてしまったのか、転覆してしまったのかもしれない
They may have broke deep and took water
大破して水に流されたのかもしれない
And all that remains is the faces and the names
残されたのは
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters
妻と息子と娘の顔と名前だけだった
Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings

เมื่อท้องฟ้าของเดือนพฤศจิกายนกลับมาอย่างมืดมิด
With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more

มากกว่าน้ำหนักว่างของ Edmund Fitzgerald
That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed

และในคืนนั้นเมื่อระฆังเรือดัง
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?
มันจะเป็นลมทิศเหนือที่พวกเขารู้สึกได้หรือไม่?

ลมในสายไฟทำเสียงแจ้งข่าว
And a wave broke over the railing
และคลื่นหักลงมาทับราว
And every man knew, as the captain did too
