Pink Floyd - Disco: 'Wish You Were Here'

Shine On You Crazy Diamond
(I-V)

Gilmour/Waters/Wright

Remember when
you were young, you shone like the sun.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Now there's a look in your eyes,

like black holes in the sky.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom, blown on the
steel breeze.

Come on you target for faraway laughter,

come on you stranger, you legend,

you martyr, and shine!

You reached for
the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,

rode on the steel breeze.

Come on you raver, you seer of visions,

come on you painter, you piper,

you prisoner, and shine!

Sigue brillando joya loca

Traducción:
Pablo M. Beleña

Recuerda cuando
eras joven, brillabas como el sol.

Sigue brillando joya loca.

Ahora hay una mirada en tus ojos,

como los agujeros negros del cielo.

quisiste

Fuiste alcanzado por el tiroteo de la infancia y la fama,

llevado por la brisa acerada.

Apresúrate en tu objetivo de volver a reír,

vuelve más extravagante, leyenda viva,

pobre mártir, y ¡brilla!

Quisiste conocer
demasiado pronto el misterio, lo imposible.

Sigue brillando joya loca.

Amenazado por las sombras nocturnas, y expuesto a la luz.

Sigue brillando joya loca.

Sí, te despreocupaste de ti dejándolo al azar,

te dejaste llevar por la brisa acerada.

Vuelve con más rabia, vaticinando el futuro,

regresa pronto artista, flautista,

prisionero de ti, y ¡brilla!

Welcome to the Machine
Waters

Welcome my son,
welcome to the machine.
Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've been.
You've been in the pipeline, filling in time, provided with toys and
'Scouting for Boys'.
You bought a guitar to punish your ma,
And you didn't like school, and you know you're nobody's fool,
So welcome to the machine.

Welcome my son,
welcome to the machine.
What did you dream? It's alright we told you what to dream.
You dreamed of a big star, he played a mean guitar,
He always ate in the Steak Bar. He loved to drive in his Jaguar.
So welcome to the machine.

Bienvenido a la maquinaria

Have a Cigar
Waters

Come in here,
dear boy, have a cigar.
You're gonna go far, fly high,
You're never gonna die, you're gonna make it if you try;
they're gonna love you.
Well I've always had a deep respect,
and I mean that most sincerely.
The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think.
Oh by the way, which one's Pink?
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy,
we call it Riding the Gravy Train.

We're just knocked
out. We heard about the sell out.
You gotta get an
album out, You owe it to the people.
We're so happy we can hardly count.
Everybody else is just green, have you seen the chart?
It's a helluva start, it could be made into a monster
if we all pull together as a team.
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy,
we call it Riding the Gravy Train.

Fúmate un cigarro

Wish You were Here
Gilmour/Waters

So, so you think
you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get
you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part
in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how
I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

Ojalá estuvieras aquí
Traducción:
Pablo M. Beleña

Así que
piensas que puedes hacer distinción entre el Cielo y el Infierno,
entre el cielo azul y el dolor.
¿Puedes distinguir un campo verde de un frío rail de acero?
¿una sonrisa de un velo?
¿Crees que puedes distinguirlo?

¿Y convirtieron
a tus héroes en fantasmas?
¿brasas calientes en un árbol?
¿el aire cálido en una fría brisa?
¿el desconsuelo en esperanza?
¿Y sustituyiste tu papel en la guerra
por un papel de protagonista en una jaula?

Cuánto,
cuánto me gustaría que estuvieras aquí.
Tan sólo somos dos almas perdidas nadando en una pecera,
año tras año,
pisando siempre el mismo terreno.
¿Y qué has encontrado?
Los mismos viejos temores.
Ojalá estuvieras aquí.

Shine On You Crazy Diamond
(VI-IX)
Gilmour/Waters/Wright

Nobody knows where
you are, how near or how far.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,
and sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!

Sigue brillando joya loca
Traducción:
Pablo M. Beleña

Nadie sabe dónde
estás, si cerca o lejos.
Sigue brillando joya loca.
Vete creando una fuerte base que yo estaré junto a ti allí.
Sigue brillando joya loca.
Y disfrutaremos del calor a la sombra del éxito pasado,
y navegaremos en la brisa acerada.
Regresa pronto chico, ganador y perdedor,
buscador de la verdad y la desilusión, y ¡brilla!
