River

Joni Mitchell

Lyrics Translation

It's comin' on Christmas, they're cuttin' down trees
They're puttin' up reindeer and singin' songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me, you know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty, made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby that I ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I wish I had river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye

It's comin' on Christmas, they're cuttin' down trees
They're puttin' up reindeer and singin' songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

It's comin' on Christmas, they're cuttin' down trees
Está chegando o Natal, eles estão cortando árvores
They're puttin' up reindeer and singin' songs of joy and peace
Estão colocando renas e cantando canções de alegria e paz
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, eu queria ter um rio
I could skate away on
No qual eu pudesse patinar para longe
But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
Mas aqui não neva, fica bem verde
I'm gonna make a lot of money then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Vou ganhar muito dinheiro e então vou abandonar essa loucura
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, eu queria ter um rio
I could skate away on
No qual eu pudesse patinar para longe
I wish I had a river so long
Eu queria ter um rio tão longo
I would teach my feet to fly
Eu ensinaria meus pés a voar
Oh, I wish I had river
Oh, eu queria ter um rio
I could skate away on
No qual eu pudesse patinar para longe
I made my baby cry
Eu fiz meu amor chorar
He tried hard to help me, you know, he put me at ease
Ele tentou muito me ajudar, você sabe, ele me deixou à vontade
And he loved me so naughty, made me weak in the knees
E ele me amou tão intensamente, me deixou fraca nos joelhos
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, eu queria ter um rio
I could skate away on
No qual eu pudesse patinar para longe
I'm so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad
Eu sou difícil de lidar, sou egoísta e estou triste
Now I've gone and lost the best baby that I ever had
Agora eu perdi o melhor amor que já tive
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, eu queria ter um rio
I could skate away on
No qual eu pudesse patinar para longe
I wish I had river so long
Eu queria ter um rio tão longo
I would teach my feet to fly
Eu ensinaria meus pés a voar
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, eu queria ter um rio
I could skate away on
No qual eu pudesse patinar para longe
I made my baby say goodbye
Eu fiz meu amor dizer adeus
It's comin' on Christmas, they're cuttin' down trees
Está chegando o Natal, eles estão cortando árvores
They're puttin' up reindeer and singin' songs of joy and peace
Estão colocando renas e cantando canções de alegria e paz
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, eu queria ter um rio
I could skate away on
No qual eu pudesse patinar para longe
It's comin' on Christmas, they're cuttin' down trees
Se acerca la Navidad, están cortando árboles
They're puttin' up reindeer and singin' songs of joy and peace
Están poniendo renos y cantando canciones de alegría y paz
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, desearía tener un río
I could skate away on
En el que pudiera patinar para escapar
But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
Pero aquí no nieva, se mantiene bastante verde
I'm gonna make a lot of money then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Voy a ganar mucho dinero y luego voy a dejar esta locura
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, desearía tener un río
I could skate away on
En el que pudiera patinar para escapar
I wish I had a river so long
Desearía tener un río tan largo
I would teach my feet to fly
Enseñaría a mis pies a volar
Oh, I wish I had river
Oh, desearía tener un río
I could skate away on
En el que pudiera patinar para escapar
I made my baby cry
Hice llorar a mi bebé
He tried hard to help me, you know, he put me at ease
Él intentó ayudarme mucho, ya sabes, me tranquilizó
And he loved me so naughty, made me weak in the knees
Y me amó tan travieso, me debilitó las rodillas
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, desearía tener un río
I could skate away on
En el que pudiera patinar para escapar
I'm so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad
Soy tan difícil de manejar, soy egoísta y estoy triste
Now I've gone and lost the best baby that I ever had
Ahora he perdido al mejor bebé que jamás tuve
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, desearía tener un río
I could skate away on
En el que pudiera patinar para escapar

Desearía tener un río tan largo
I would teach my feet to fly
Enseñaría a mis pies a volar
Oh, I wish I had a river
Oh, desearía tener un río
I could skate away on
En el que pudiera patinar para escapar
I made my baby say goodbye
Hice que mi bebé dijera adiós
