One of Us Cannot Be Wrong
Leonard Cohen
I lit a thin green candle
To make you jealous of me
But the room just filled up with mosquitoes
They heard that my body was free
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
And I put it in your little shoe
And then I confess that I tortured the dress
That you wore for the world to look through
I showed my heart to the doctor
He said I'd just have to quit
Then he wrote himself a prescription
And your name was mentioned in it
Then he locked himself in a library shelf
With the details of our honeymoon
And I hear from the nurse that he's gotten much worse
And his practice is all in a ruin
I heard of a saint who had loved you
So I studied all night in his school
He taught that the duty of lovers
Is to tarnish the golden rule
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure
He drowned himself in the pool
His body is gone but back here on the lawn
His spirit continues to drool
An Eskimo showed me a movie
He'd recently taken of you
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
His lips and his fingers were blue
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
And I guess he just never got warm
But you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
Oh please, let me come into the storm
I lit a thin green candle
Ho acceso una sottile candela verde
To make you jealous of me
Per farti geloso di me
But the room just filled up with mosquitoes
Ma la stanza si è solo riempita di zanzare
They heard that my body was free
Hanno sentito che il mio corpo era libero
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
Poi ho preso la polvere di una lunga notte insonne
And I put it in your little shoe
E l'ho messa nella tua piccola scarpa
And then I confess that I tortured the dress
E poi confesso che ho torturato il vestito
That you wore for the world to look through
Che indossavi per il mondo da guardare
I showed my heart to the doctor
Ho mostrato il mio cuore al dottore
He said I'd just have to quit
Ha detto che avrei dovuto smettere
Then he wrote himself a prescription
Poi ha scritto una prescrizione per se stesso
And your name was mentioned in it
E il tuo nome è stato menzionato in essa
Then he locked himself in a library shelf
Poi si è chiuso in uno scaffale di una biblioteca
With the details of our honeymoon
Con i dettagli della nostra luna di miele
And I hear from the nurse that he's gotten much worse
E sento dall'infermiera che è molto peggiorato
And his practice is all in a ruin
E il suo studio è tutto in rovina
I heard of a saint who had loved you
Ho sentito parlare di un santo che ti aveva amato
So I studied all night in his school
Così ho studiato tutta la notte nella sua scuola
He taught that the duty of lovers
Ha insegnato che il dovere degli amanti
Is to tarnish the golden rule
È quello di macchiare la regola d'oro
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure
E proprio quando ero sicuro che i suoi insegnamenti fossero puri
He drowned himself in the pool
Si è annegato nella piscina
His body is gone but back here on the lawn
Il suo corpo è sparito ma qui sul prato
His spirit continues to drool
Il suo spirito continua a sbavare
An Eskimo showed me a movie
Un eschimese mi ha mostrato un film
He'd recently taken of you
Che aveva recentemente girato di te
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
Il pover'uomo poteva a malapena smettere di tremare
His lips and his fingers were blue
Le sue labbra e le sue dita erano blu
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
Suppongo che si sia congelato quando il vento ha preso i tuoi vestiti
And I guess he just never got warm
E immagino che non sia mai riuscito a scaldarsi
But you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
Ma stai lì così bella nella tua tormenta di ghiaccio
Oh please, let me come into the storm
Oh per favore, lasciami entrare nella tempesta
I lit a thin green candle
Acendi uma fina vela verde
To make you jealous of me
Para te fazer ciúmes de mim
But the room just filled up with mosquitoes
Mas o quarto apenas se encheu de mosquitos
They heard that my body was free
Eles ouviram que meu corpo estava livre
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
Então eu peguei a poeira de uma longa noite sem sono
And I put it in your little shoe
E coloquei no seu pequeno sapato
And then I confess that I tortured the dress
E então eu confesso que torturei o vestido
That you wore for the world to look through
Que você usava para o mundo olhar através
I showed my heart to the doctor
Mostrei meu coração ao médico
He said I'd just have to quit
Ele disse que eu teria que desistir
Then he wrote himself a prescription
Então ele escreveu uma prescrição para si mesmo
And your name was mentioned in it
E o seu nome foi mencionado nela
Then he locked himself in a library shelf
Então ele se trancou em uma prateleira de biblioteca
With the details of our honeymoon
Com os detalhes da nossa lua de mel
And I hear from the nurse that he's gotten much worse
E ouço da enfermeira que ele piorou muito
And his practice is all in a ruin
E sua prática está toda em ruínas
I heard of a saint who had loved you
Ouvi falar de um santo que te amou
So I studied all night in his school
Então estudei a noite toda na escola dele
He taught that the duty of lovers
Ele ensinou que o dever dos amantes
Is to tarnish the golden rule
É manchar a regra de ouro
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure
E justo quando eu estava certo de que seus ensinamentos eram puros
He drowned himself in the pool
Ele se afogou na piscina
His body is gone but back here on the lawn
Seu corpo se foi, mas aqui no gramado
His spirit continues to drool
Seu espírito continua a babar
An Eskimo showed me a movie
Um esquimó me mostrou um filme
He'd recently taken of you
Que ele havia recentemente tirado de você
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
O pobre homem mal conseguia parar de tremer
His lips and his fingers were blue
Seus lábios e dedos estavam azuis
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
Suponho que ele congelou quando o vento levou suas roupas
And I guess he just never got warm
E acho que ele nunca se aqueceu
But you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
Mas você fica aí tão bonita na sua tempestade de gelo
Oh please, let me come into the storm
Por favor, deixe-me entrar na tempestade
I lit a thin green candle
Encendí una delgada vela verde
To make you jealous of me
Para hacerte celoso de mí
But the room just filled up with mosquitoes
Pero la habitación simplemente se llenó de mosquitos
They heard that my body was free
Escucharon que mi cuerpo estaba libre
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
Luego tomé el polvo de una larga noche sin sueño
And I put it in your little shoe
Y lo puse en tu pequeño zapato
And then I confess that I tortured the dress
Y luego confieso que torturé el vestido
That you wore for the world to look through
Que llevabas para que el mundo mirara a través
I showed my heart to the doctor
Le mostré mi corazón al doctor
He said I'd just have to quit
Dijo que simplemente tendría que dejarlo
Then he wrote himself a prescription

Luego se encerró en un estante de biblioteca
With the details of our honeymoon
Con los detalles de nuestra luna de miel
And I hear from the nurse that he's gotten much worse
Y escucho de la enfermera que ha empeorado mucho
And his practice is all in a ruin
Y su práctica está toda en ruinas
I heard of a saint who had loved you
Oí hablar de un santo que te había amado
So I studied all night in his school
Así que estudié toda la noche en su escuela
He taught that the duty of lovers
Enseñó que el deber de los amantes
Is to tarnish the golden rule
Es empañar la regla de oro
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure
Y justo cuando estaba seguro de que sus enseñanzas eran puras
He drowned himself in the pool
Se ahogó en la piscina
His body is gone but back here on the lawn
Su cuerpo se ha ido pero aquí en el césped
His spirit continues to drool
Su espíritu continúa babeando
An Eskimo showed me a movie
Un esquimal me mostró una película
He'd recently taken of you
Que recientemente había tomado de ti
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
El pobre hombre apenas podía dejar de temblar
His lips and his fingers were blue
Sus labios y sus dedos estaban azules
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
Supongo que se congeló cuando el viento se llevó tu ropa
And I guess he just never got warm
Y supongo que simplemente nunca se calentó
But you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
Pero te quedas allí tan bien en tu ventisca de hielo
Oh please, let me come into the storm
Oh por favor, déjame entrar en la tormenta
I lit a thin green candle
J'ai allumé une mince bougie verte
To make you jealous of me
Pour te rendre jaloux de moi
But the room just filled up with mosquitoes
Mais la pièce s'est juste remplie de moustiques
They heard that my body was free
Ils ont entendu que mon corps était libre
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
Puis j'ai pris la poussière d'une longue nuit sans sommeil
And I put it in your little shoe
Et je l'ai mise dans ta petite chaussure
And then I confess that I tortured the dress
Et puis j'avoue que j'ai torturé la robe
That you wore for the world to look through
Que tu portais pour que le monde puisse voir à travers

Et j'entends de l'infirmière qu'il a beaucoup empiré
And his practice is all in a ruin
Et que sa pratique est en ruine
I heard of a saint who had loved you
J'ai entendu parler d'un saint qui t'avait aimée
So I studied all night in his school
Alors j'ai étudié toute la nuit dans son école
He taught that the duty of lovers
Il enseignait que le devoir des amoureux
Is to tarnish the golden rule
Est de ternir la règle d'or
And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure
Et juste quand j'étais sûr que ses enseignements étaient purs
He drowned himself in the pool
Il s'est noyé dans la piscine
His body is gone but back here on the lawn
Son corps est parti mais ici sur la pelouse
His spirit continues to drool
Son esprit continue de baver
An Eskimo showed me a movie
Un Esquimau m'a montré un film
He'd recently taken of you
Qu'il avait récemment pris de toi
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
Le pauvre homme ne pouvait presque pas arrêter de frissonner
His lips and his fingers were blue
Ses lèvres et ses doigts étaient bleus
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
Je suppose qu'il a gelé quand le vent a pris tes vêtements
And I guess he just never got warm
Et je suppose qu'il n'a jamais eu chaud
But you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
Mais tu te tiens là si bien dans ton blizzard de glace
Oh please, let me come into the storm
Oh s'il te plaît, laisse-moi entrer dans la tempête

Aber du stehst da so nett in deinem Blizzard aus Eis
Oh please, let me come into the storm
