Mama Said by Metallica
Lyrics & Translation
English
Mama, she has taught me well
Told me when I was young
"Son, your life's an open book
Don't close it 'fore it's done"
"The brightest flame burns quickest"
That's what I heard her say
A son's heart's owed to Mother
But I must find my way
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Be still
"Rebel," my new last name
Wild blood in my veins
Apron strings around my neck
The mark that still remains
I left home at an early age
Of what I heard was wrong
I never asked forgiveness
But what is said is done
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Never I ask of you, but never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
Never I ask of you, but never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
So, let this heart be still
Mama, now I'm coming home
I'm not all you wished of me
A mother's love for her son
Unspoken, help me be
Yeah, I took your love for granted
And all the things you said to me, yeah-yeah
I need your arms to welcome me
But a cold stone's all I see
Let my heart go
Let your son grow
Mama, let my heart go
Or let this heart be still
Let my heart go
Mama, let my heart go
You never let my heart go
So, let this heart be still
Never I ask of you, but never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
Never I ask of you, but never I gave
But you gave me your emptiness
I now take to my grave
So, let this heart be still

Mama Said (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Mamá, ella me ha enseñado bien
Me dijo cuando era joven
"Hijo, tu vida es un libro abierto
No lo cierres antes de que termine"
"La llama más brillante arde más rápido"
Eso es lo que le oí decir
El corazón de un hijo se debe a la Madre
Pero debo encontrar mi camino
Deja ir mi corazón
Deja crecer a tu hijo
Mamá, deja ir mi corazón
O deja que este corazón esté quieto
Estate quieto
"Rebelde", mi nuevo apellido
Sangre salvaje en mis venas
Cuerdas de delantal alrededor de mi cuello
La marca que aún permanece
Me fui de casa a temprana edad
De lo que oí que estaba mal
Nunca pedí perdón
Pero lo que se dice, hecho está
Deja ir mi corazón
Deja crecer a tu hijo
Mamá, deja ir mi corazón
O deja que este corazón esté quieto
Nunca te pedí, pero nunca di
Pero me diste tu vacío
Que ahora llevo a mi tumba
Nunca te pedí, pero nunca di
Pero me diste tu vacío
Que ahora llevo a mi tumba
Así que, deja que este corazón esté quieto
Mamá, ahora vuelvo a casa
No soy todo lo que deseaste de mí
El amor de una madre por su hijo
Tácito, ayúdame a ser
Sí, di por sentado tu amor
Y todas las cosas que me dijiste, sí-sí
Necesito tus brazos para que me acojan
Pero una piedra fría es todo lo que veo
Deja ir mi corazón
Deja crecer a tu hijo
Mamá, deja ir mi corazón
O deja que este corazón esté quieto
Deja ir mi corazón
Mamá, deja ir mi corazón
Nunca dejaste ir mi corazón
Así que, deja que este corazón esté quieto
Nunca te pedí, pero nunca di
Pero me diste tu vacío
Que ahora llevo a mi tumba
Nunca te pedí, pero nunca di
Pero me diste tu vacío
Que ahora llevo a mi tumba
Así que, deja que este corazón esté quieto
