The Dancer

POLLY JEAN HARVEY

Lyrics Translation

He came riding fast like a phoenix outta fire flames
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
He came bathed in light and splendor and glory
I can't believe what the Lord has finally sent me

He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil
He said laugh a while I can make your heart feel
He said fly with me touch the face of the true God
And then cry with joy at the depth of my love

'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
I've looked long, I've looked far
To bring peace to my black and empty heart
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

My love will stay 'til the riverbed runs dry
My love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
I love him longer as each damn day goes
The man is gone and heaven only knows

'Cause I've cried days, I've cried nights
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Is he near? Is he far?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart

So long days, so long nights
Oh, Lord, be near me tonight
Is he near? Is he far?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart

He came riding fast like a phoenix outta fire flames
Ele veio cavalgando rápido como uma fênix saindo das chamas do fogo
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
Ele veio vestido de preto com uma cruz carregando meu nome
He came bathed in light and splendor and glory
Ele veio banhado em luz e esplendor e glória
I can't believe what the Lord has finally sent me
Não posso acreditar no que o Senhor finalmente me enviou
He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil
Ele disse dance para mim, fanciulla gentil
He said laugh a while I can make your heart feel
Ele disse ria um pouco, eu posso fazer seu coração sentir
He said fly with me touch the face of the true God
Ele disse voe comigo, toque o rosto do verdadeiro Deus
And then cry with joy at the depth of my love
E então chore de alegria com a profundidade do meu amor
'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights
Porque eu orei dias, eu orei noites
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Para o Senhor apenas me enviar algum sinal
I've looked long, I've looked far
Eu procurei muito, eu procurei longe
To bring peace to my black and empty heart
Para trazer paz ao meu coração negro e vazio
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
My love will stay 'til the riverbed runs dry
Meu amor ficará até o leito do rio secar
My love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
Meu amor dura tanto quanto o céu azul ensolarado
I love him longer as each damn day goes
Eu o amo mais a cada maldito dia que passa
The man is gone and heaven only knows
O homem se foi e só o céu sabe
'Cause I've cried days, I've cried nights
Porque eu chorei dias, eu chorei noites
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Para o Senhor apenas me enviar algum sinal
Is he near? Is he far?
Ele está perto? Ele está longe?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
Traga paz ao meu coração negro e vazio
So long days, so long nights
Tantos dias, tantas noites
Oh, Lord, be near me tonight
Oh, Senhor, esteja perto de mim esta noite
Is he near? Is he far?
Ele está perto? Ele está longe?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
Traga paz ao meu coração negro e vazio
He came riding fast like a phoenix outta fire flames
Vino cabalgando rápido como un fénix saliendo de las llamas
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
Vino vestido de negro con una cruz que llevaba mi nombre
He came bathed in light and splendor and glory
Vino bañado en luz, esplendor y gloria
I can't believe what the Lord has finally sent me
No puedo creer lo que finalmente me ha enviado el Señor
He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil
Dijo, baila para mí, fanciulla gentil
He said laugh a while I can make your heart feel
Dijo, ríe un rato, puedo hacer que tu corazón sienta
He said fly with me touch the face of the true God
Dijo, vuela conmigo, toca el rostro del verdadero Dios
And then cry with joy at the depth of my love
Y luego llora de alegría por la profundidad de mi amor
'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights
Porque he rezado días, he rezado noches
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Para que el Señor me enviara alguna señal
I've looked long, I've looked far
He buscado mucho, he buscado lejos
To bring peace to my black and empty heart
Para traer paz a mi corazón negro y vacío
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
My love will stay 'til the riverbed runs dry
Mi amor permanecerá hasta que el lecho del río se seque
My love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
Mi amor dura tanto como el cielo azul soleado
I love him longer as each damn day goes
Lo amo más con cada maldito día que pasa
The man is gone and heaven only knows
El hombre se ha ido y solo el cielo lo sabe
'Cause I've cried days, I've cried nights
Porque he llorado días, he llorado noches
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Para que el Señor me enviara alguna señal
Is he near? Is he far?
¿Está cerca? ¿Está lejos?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
Trae paz a mi corazón negro y vacío
So long days, so long nights
Tantos días, tantas noches
Oh, Lord, be near me tonight
Oh, Señor, esté cerca de mí esta noche
Is he near? Is he far?
¿Está cerca? ¿Está lejos?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
Trae paz a mi corazón negro y vacío
He came riding fast like a phoenix outta fire flames
Il est venu chevauchant rapidement comme un phénix sortant des flammes de feu
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
Il est venu habillé de noir avec une croix portant mon nom
He came bathed in light and splendor and glory
Il est venu baigné de lumière, de splendeur et de gloire
I can't believe what the Lord has finally sent me
Je ne peux pas croire ce que le Seigneur m'a finalement envoyé
He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil
Il a dit danse pour moi, fanciulla gentil
He said laugh a while I can make your heart feel
Il a dit ris un peu, je peux faire ressentir ton cœur
He said fly with me touch the face of the true God
Il a dit vole avec moi, touche le visage du vrai Dieu
And then cry with joy at the depth of my love
Et puis pleure de joie à la profondeur de mon amour
'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights
Car j'ai prié des jours, j'ai prié des nuits
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Pour que le Seigneur m'envoie simplement un signe
I've looked long, I've looked far
J'ai cherché longtemps, j'ai cherché loin
To bring peace to my black and empty heart
Pour apporter la paix à mon cœur noir et vide
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
My love will stay 'til the riverbed runs dry
Mon amour restera jusqu'à ce que le lit de la rivière soit sec
My love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
Mon amour dure aussi longtemps que le ciel bleu ensoleillé
I love him longer as each damn day goes
Je l'aime plus longtemps à chaque jour qui passe
The man is gone and heaven only knows
L'homme est parti et seul le ciel le sait
'Cause I've cried days, I've cried nights
Car j'ai pleuré des jours, j'ai pleuré des nuits
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Pour que le Seigneur m'envoie simplement un signe
Is he near? Is he far?
Est-il proche ? Est-il loin ?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
Apporte la paix à mon cœur noir et vide
