Lyrics & Translation
English
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
It's not enough, it's not enough
His blood has frozen and curdled with fright
His knees have trembled and given way in the night
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
His step has faltered
One world, one soul
Time pass, the river roll
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
And silent replies that swirl invitation
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
A grim intimation of what is to be
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder than words
Of promises broken

Spanish translation of Sorrow by Pink Floyd
Sorrow* (original Pink Floyd)
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
It's not enough, it's not enough
His blood has frozen and curdled with fright
His knees have trembled and given way in the night
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
His step has faltered
One world, one soul
Time pass, the river roll
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
And silent replies that swirl invitation
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
A grim intimation of what is to be
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder than words
Of promises broken
Sorrow (traducción LyricVerse Team)
El dulce olor de una gran pena se cierne sobre la tierra
Columnas de humo se elevan y se funden en el cielo plomizo
Un hombre yace y sueña con campos verdes y ríos
Pero despierta a una mañana sin razón para despertar
Está atormentado por el recuerdo de un paraíso perdido
En su juventud o un sueño, no puede ser preciso
Está encadenado para siempre a un mundo que ha partido
No es suficiente, no es suficiente
Su sangre se ha congelado y cuajado de miedo
Sus rodillas han temblado y cedido en la noche
Su mano ha flaqueado en el momento de la verdad
Su paso ha vacilado
Un mundo, un alma
El tiempo pasa, el río rueda
Y él habla al río de amor perdido y dedicación
Y respuestas silenciosas que giran invitación
Fluyen oscuras y turbias hacia un mar aceitoso
Una sombría insinuación de lo que está por venir
Hay un viento incesante que sopla esta noche
Y hay polvo en mis ojos, que ciega mi vista
Y un silencio que habla mucho más fuerte que las palabras
De promesas rotas
