Lyrics & Translation
English
On the day the wall came down
They threw the locks onto the ground
And with glasses high we raised a cry
For freedom had arrived
On the day the wall came down
The Ship of Fools had finally run aground
Promises lit up the night
Like paper doves in flight
I dreamed you had left my side
No warmth, not even pride remained
And even though you needed me
It was clear that I could not do a thing for you
Now life devalues day by day
As friends and neighbours turn away
And there's a change that even with regret
Cannot be undone
Now frontiers shift like desert sands
While nations wash their bloodied hands
Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey
I woke to the sound of drums
The music played, the morning sun streamed in
I turned and I looked at you
And all but the bitter residues slipped away
Slipped away

A Great Day For Freedom* (original Pink Floyd)
On the day the wall came down
They threw the locks onto the ground
And with glasses high we raised a cry
For freedom had arrived
On the day the wall came down
The Ship of Fools had finally run aground
Promises lit up the night
Like paper doves in flight
I dreamed you had left my side
No warmth, not even pride remained
And even though you needed me
It was clear that I could not do a thing for you
Now life devalues day by day
As friends and neighbours turn away
And there's a change that even with regret
Cannot be undone
Now frontiers shift like desert sands
While nations wash their bloodied hands
Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey
I woke to the sound of drums
The music played, the morning sun streamed in
I turned and I looked at you
And all but the bitter residues slipped away
Slipped away
A Great Day For Freedom (traducción LyricVerse Team)
El día que el muro cayó
Arrojaron las cerraduras al suelo
Y con copas en alto alzamos un grito
Porque la libertad había llegado
El día que el muro cayó
La Nave de los Locos finalmente había encallado
Las promesas iluminaron la noche
Como palomas de papel en vuelo
Soñé que te habías ido de mi lado
No quedaba calor, ni siquiera orgullo
Y aunque me necesitabas
Estaba claro que no podía hacer nada por ti
Ahora la vida se devalúa día a día
Mientras amigos y vecinos se alejan
Y hay un cambio que, incluso con arrepentimiento
No puede deshacerse
Ahora las fronteras cambian como arenas del desierto
Mientras las naciones lavan sus manos ensangrentadas
De lealtad, de historia, en tonos de gris
Desperté con el sonido de los tambores
La música sonaba, el sol de la mañana entraba a raudales
Me giré y te miré
Y todo, excepto los amargos residuos, se desvaneció
Se desvaneció
