The Harder They Come [Single Version]

Jimmy Cliff

Lyrics Translation

Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
But between the day you're born and when you die
They never seem to hear even your cry

So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all

Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Trying to drive me underground
And they think that they have got the battle won
I say forgive them Lord
They know not what they've done

So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all

Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah, ooh

And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave

So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all

Yeah, the harder they come
The harder they'll fall one and all

Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Bem, eles me falam de uma torta lá no céu
Waiting for me when I die
Esperando por mim quando eu morrer
But between the day you're born and when you die
Mas entre o dia em que você nasce e quando você morre
They never seem to hear even your cry
Eles nunca parecem ouvir sequer o seu choro
So as sure as the sun will shine
Então, tão certo quanto o sol vai brilhar
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Eu vou pegar minha parte agora do que é meu
And then the harder they come
E então, quanto mais eles vêm
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Mais eles vão cair, um por um
Ooh the harder they come
Ooh quanto mais eles vêm
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Mais eles vão cair, um por um
Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Bem, os opressores estão tentando me manter para baixo
Trying to drive me underground
Tentando me levar para o subterrâneo
And they think that they have got the battle won
E eles pensam que já ganharam a batalha
I say forgive them Lord
Eu digo perdoe-os Senhor
They know not what they've done
Eles não sabem o que fizeram
So as sure as the sun will shine
Então, tão certo quanto o sol vai brilhar
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Eu vou pegar minha parte agora do que é meu
And then the harder they come
E então, quanto mais eles vêm
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Mais eles vão cair, um por um
Ooh the harder they come
Ooh quanto mais eles vêm
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Mais eles vão cair, um por um
Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah, ooh
Ooh sim oh sim woah sim, ooh
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
E eu continuo lutando pelas coisas que quero
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
Embora eu saiba que quando você está morto, você não pode
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Mas eu prefiro ser um homem livre no meu túmulo
Than living as a puppet or a slave
Do que viver como um fantoche ou um escravo
So as sure as the sun will shine
Então, tão certo quanto o sol vai brilhar
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Eu vou pegar minha parte agora do que é meu
And then the harder they come
E então, quanto mais eles vêm
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Mais eles vão cair, um por um
Ooh the harder they come
Ooh quanto mais eles vêm
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Mais eles vão cair, um por um
Yeah, the harder they come
Sim, quanto mais eles vêm
The harder they'll fall one and all
Mais eles vão cair, um por um
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Bueno, me hablan de un pastel en el cielo
Waiting for me when I die
Esperándome cuando muera
But between the day you're born and when you die
Pero entre el día que naces y cuando mueres
They never seem to hear even your cry
Nunca parecen escuchar incluso tu llanto
So as sure as the sun will shine
Así que tan seguro como el sol brillará
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Voy a obtener mi parte ahora de lo que es mío
And then the harder they come
Y entonces cuanto más duro vengan
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Más duro caerán, uno por uno
Ooh the harder they come
Oh, cuanto más duro vengan
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Más duro caerán, uno por uno
Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Bueno, los opresores están tratando de mantenerme abajo
Trying to drive me underground
Tratando de llevarme al subsuelo
And they think that they have got the battle won
Y piensan que han ganado la batalla
I say forgive them Lord
Yo digo perdónalos Señor
They know not what they've done
No saben lo que han hecho
So as sure as the sun will shine
Así que tan seguro como el sol brillará
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Voy a obtener mi parte ahora de lo que es mío
And then the harder they come
Y entonces cuanto más duro vengan
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Más duro caerán, uno por uno
Ooh the harder they come
Oh, cuanto más duro vengan
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Más duro caerán, uno por uno
Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah, ooh
Oh sí, oh sí, vaya sí, oh
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Y sigo luchando por las cosas que quiero
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
Aunque sé que cuando estás muerto no puedes
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Pero prefiero ser un hombre libre en mi tumba
Than living as a puppet or a slave
Que vivir como un títere o un esclavo
So as sure as the sun will shine
Así que tan seguro como el sol brillará
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Voy a obtener mi parte ahora de lo que es mío
And then the harder they come
Y entonces cuanto más duro vengan
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Más duro caerán, uno por uno
Ooh the harder they come
Oh, cuanto más duro vengan
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Más duro caerán, uno por uno
Yeah, the harder they come
Sí, cuanto más duro vengan
The harder they'll fall one and all
Más duro caerán uno por uno
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Eh bien, on me parle d'une tarte dans le ciel
Waiting for me when I die
Qui m'attend quand je mourrai
But between the day you're born and when you die
Mais entre le jour où tu nais et celui où tu meurs
They never seem to hear even your cry
Ils ne semblent jamais entendre même ton cri
So as sure as the sun will shine
Alors aussi sûr que le soleil brillera
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Je vais obtenir ma part maintenant de ce qui est à moi
And then the harder they come
Et plus ils viendront fort
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Plus ils tomberont, tous autant qu'ils sont
Ooh the harder they come
Oh plus ils viennent fort
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Plus ils tomberont, tous autant qu'ils sont
Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Eh bien, les oppresseurs essaient de me maintenir en bas
Trying to drive me underground
Essayant de me conduire sous terre
And they think that they have got the battle won
Et ils pensent qu'ils ont gagné la bataille
I say forgive them Lord
Je dis pardonne-leur Seigneur
They know not what they've done
Ils ne savent pas ce qu'ils ont fait
So as sure as the sun will shine
Alors aussi sûr que le soleil brillera
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Je vais obtenir ma part maintenant de ce qui est à moi
And then the harder they come
Et plus ils viendront fort
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Plus ils tomberont, tous autant qu'ils sont
Ooh the harder they come
Oh plus ils viennent fort
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Plus ils tomberont, tous autant qu'ils sont
Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah, ooh
Oh ouais oh ouais woah ouais, oh
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Et je continue à me battre pour les choses que je veux
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
Bien que je sache que quand tu es mort tu ne peux pas
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Mais je préférerais être un homme libre dans ma tombe
Than living as a puppet or a slave
Que de vivre comme une marionnette ou un esclave
So as sure as the sun will shine
Alors aussi sûr que le soleil brillera
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Je vais obtenir ma part maintenant de ce qui est à moi
And then the harder they come
Et plus ils viendront fort
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Plus ils tomberont, tous autant qu'ils sont
Ooh the harder they come
Oh plus ils viennent fort
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Plus ils tomberont, tous autant qu'ils sont
Yeah, the harder they come
Ouais, plus ils viennent fort
The harder they'll fall one and all
Plus ils tomberont tous autant qu'ils sont
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Nun, sie erzählen mir von einem Kuchen hoch am Himmel
Waiting for me when I die
Der auf mich wartet, wenn ich sterbe
But between the day you're born and when you die
Aber zwischen dem Tag, an dem du geboren wirst und dem Tag, an dem du stirbst
They never seem to hear even your cry
Scheinen sie selbst dein Weinen nicht zu hören
So as sure as the sun will shine
So sicher wie die Sonne scheinen wird
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Ich werde jetzt meinen Anteil bekommen, der mir gehört
And then the harder they come
Und dann, je härter sie kommen
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Desto härter werden sie fallen, einer nach dem anderen
Ooh the harder they come
Oh, je härter sie kommen
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Desto härter werden sie fallen, einer nach dem anderen
Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Nun, die Unterdrücker versuchen, mich niederzuhalten
Trying to drive me underground
Versuchen, mich in den Untergrund zu treiben
And they think that they have got the battle won
Und sie denken, dass sie die Schlacht gewonnen haben
I say forgive them Lord
Ich sage, vergib ihnen, Herr
They know not what they've done
Sie wissen nicht, was sie getan haben
So as sure as the sun will shine
So sicher wie die Sonne scheinen wird
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Ich werde jetzt meinen Anteil bekommen, der mir gehört
And then the harder they come
Und dann, je härter sie kommen
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Desto härter werden sie fallen, einer nach dem anderen
Ooh the harder they come
Oh, je härter sie kommen
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Desto härter werden sie fallen, einer nach dem anderen
Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah, ooh
Oh ja, oh ja, wow ja, oh
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Und ich kämpfe weiter für die Dinge, die ich will
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
Obwohl ich weiß, dass du, wenn du tot bist, nicht kannst
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Aber ich wäre lieber ein freier Mann in meinem Grab
Than living as a puppet or a slave
Als ein Marionette oder ein Sklave zu leben
So as sure as the sun will shine
So sicher wie die Sonne scheinen wird
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Ich werde jetzt meinen Anteil bekommen, der mir gehört
And then the harder they come
Und dann, je härter sie kommen
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Desto härter werden sie fallen, einer nach dem anderen
Ooh the harder they come
Oh, je härter sie kommen
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Desto härter werden sie fallen, einer nach dem anderen
Yeah, the harder they come
Ja, je härter sie kommen
The harder they'll fall one and all
Desto härter werden sie fallen, einer nach dem anderen
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Ebbene mi parlano di una torta lassù nel cielo
Waiting for me when I die
Che mi aspetta quando morirò
But between the day you're born and when you die
Ma tra il giorno in cui nasci e quando muori
They never seem to hear even your cry
Non sembrano mai sentire nemmeno il tuo pianto
So as sure as the sun will shine
Quindi sicuro come il sole splenderà
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Prenderò la mia parte ora di ciò che è mio
And then the harder they come
E poi più vengono con forza
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Più cadranno duramente, uno per uno
Ooh the harder they come
Oh più vengono con forza
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Più cadranno duramente, uno per uno
Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Ebbene gli oppressori stanno cercando di tenermi giù
Trying to drive me underground
Cercando di mandarmi sottoterra
And they think that they have got the battle won
E pensano di aver vinto la battaglia
I say forgive them Lord
Dico perdonali Signore
They know not what they've done
Non sanno quello che hanno fatto
So as sure as the sun will shine
Quindi sicuro come il sole splenderà
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Prenderò la mia parte ora di ciò che è mio
And then the harder they come
E poi più vengono con forza
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Più cadranno duramente, uno per uno
Ooh the harder they come
Oh più vengono con forza
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Più cadranno duramente, uno per uno
Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah, ooh
Oh sì oh sì wow sì, oh
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
E continuo a lottare per le cose che voglio
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
Anche se so che quando sei morto non puoi
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Ma preferirei essere un uomo libero nella mia tomba
Than living as a puppet or a slave
Che vivere come un burattino o uno schiavo
So as sure as the sun will shine
Quindi sicuro come il sole splenderà
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Prenderò la mia parte ora di ciò che è mio
And then the harder they come
E poi più vengono con forza
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Più cadranno duramente, uno per uno
Ooh the harder they come
Oh più vengono con forza
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Più cadranno duramente, uno per uno
Yeah, the harder they come
Sì, più vengono con forza
The harder they'll fall one and all
Più cadranno duramente, uno per uno
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Mereka bilang ada pai di langit
Waiting for me when I die
Menungguku saat aku mati
But between the day you're born and when you die
Tapi antara hari kau lahir dan saat kau mati
They never seem to hear even your cry
Mereka tampaknya tak pernah mendengar bahkan tangisanmu
So as sure as the sun will shine
Jadi seyakin matahari akan bersinar
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Aku akan mendapatkan bagianku sekarang dari apa yang menjadi hakku
And then the harder they come
Dan kemudian semakin keras mereka datang
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Semakin keras mereka akan jatuh, satu per satu
Ooh the harder they come
Ooh semakin keras mereka datang
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Semakin keras mereka akan jatuh, satu per satu
Well the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Para penindas mencoba menekanku
Trying to drive me underground
Mencoba mengusirku ke bawah tanah
And they think that they have got the battle won
Dan mereka pikir mereka telah memenangkan pertempuran
I say forgive them Lord
Aku bilang maafkan mereka Tuhan
They know not what they've done
Mereka tidak tahu apa yang telah mereka lakukan
So as sure as the sun will shine
Jadi seyakin matahari akan bersinar
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Aku akan mendapatkan bagianku sekarang dari apa yang menjadi hakku
And then the harder they come
Dan kemudian semakin keras mereka datang
The harder they'll fall, one and all

The harder they'll fall, one and all
Semakin keras mereka akan jatuh, satu per satu
Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah, ooh
Ooh ya oh ya woah ya, ooh
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Dan aku terus berjuang untuk hal-hal yang aku inginkan
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
Meskipun aku tahu bahwa saat kau mati kau tidak bisa
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Tapi aku lebih suka menjadi orang bebas di kuburanku
Than living as a puppet or a slave
Daripada hidup sebagai boneka atau budak
So as sure as the sun will shine
Jadi seyakin matahari akan bersinar
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
Aku akan mendapatkan bagianku sekarang dari apa yang menjadi hakku
And then the harder they come
Dan kemudian semakin keras mereka datang

Yeah, the harder they come
Ya, semakin keras mereka datang
The harder they'll fall one and all
Semakin keras mereka akan jatuh, satu per satu
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky

Waiting for me when I die
รอฉันเมื่อฉันตาย
But between the day you're born and when you die

Trying to drive me underground
พยายามขับไล่ฉันให้ไปอยู่ใต้ดิน
And they think that they have got the battle won
และพวกเขาคิดว่าพวกเขาชนะการต่อสู้แล้ว
I say forgive them Lord
ฉันบอกให้อภัยพวกเขาพระเจ้า
They know not what they've done

แม้ว่าฉันจะรู้ว่าเมื่อคุณตายคุณไม่สามารถ
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
