Walk Unafraid by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
As the sun comes up, as the moon goes down
These heavy notions creep around
It makes me think, long ago
I was brought into this life a little lamb
A little lamb
Courageous, stumbling
Fearless was my middle name.
But somewhere there I lost my way
Everyone walks the same
Expecting me to step
The narrow path they've laid
They claim to
Walk unafraid
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold me love me or leave me high.
Say "keep within the boundaries if you want to play."
Say "contradiction only makes it harder."
How can I be
What I want To be?
When all I want to do is strip away
These stilled constraints
And crush this charade
Shred this sad masquerade
I don't need no persuading
I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and
Walk unafraid
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold me love me or leave me high.
If I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go
I just want to hold my head up high
I don't care what I have to step over
I'm prepared to look you in the eye
Look me in the eye
And if you see familiarity
Then celebrate the contradiction
Help me when I fall to
Walk unafraid
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold my love or leave me high.
Walk unafraid
I'll be clumsy instead
Hold me love me or leave me high.

Walk Unafraid (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Mientras sale el sol, mientras baja la luna
Estas ideas pesadas se arrastran
Me hace pensar, hace mucho tiempo
Fui traído a esta vida un corderito
Un corderito
Valiente, tropezando
Intrépido era mi segundo nombre.
Pero en algún lugar perdí mi camino
Todos caminan igual
Esperando que yo pise
El estrecho camino que han trazado
Afirman
Caminar sin miedo
Seré torpe en cambio
Abrázame, ámame o déjame en alto.
Di "mantente dentro de los límites si quieres jugar."
Di "la contradicción solo lo hace más difícil."
¿Cómo puedo ser
Lo que quiero ser?
Cuando todo lo que quiero hacer es despojarme
De estas restricciones paralizadas
Y aplastar esta farsa
Despedazar este triste disfraz
No necesito persuasión
Tropezaré, caeré, me levantaré y
Caminaré sin miedo
Seré torpe en cambio
Abrázame, ámame o déjame en alto.
Si tengo una bolsa de rocas para llevar mientras voy
Solo quiero mantener la cabeza en alto
No me importa lo que tenga que saltar
Estoy preparado para mirarte a los ojos
Mírame a los ojos
Y si ves familiaridad
Entonces celebra la contradicción
Ayúdame cuando caiga a
Caminar sin miedo
Seré torpe en cambio
Abrázame, ámame o déjame en alto.
Caminar sin miedo
Seré torpe en cambio
Abrázame, ámame o déjame en alto.
