The Fountain Of Lamneth by Rush
Lyrics & Translation
English
[I. In the Valley]
I am born
I am me
I am new
I am free
Look at me
I am young
Sight unseen
Life unsung
My eyes have just been opened
And they're open very wide
Images around me
Don't identify inside
Just one blur I recognize
The one that soothes and feeds
My way of life is easy
And as simple are my needs
Yet my eyes are drawn toward
The mountain in the east
Fascinates and captivates
Gives my heart no peace
The mountain holds the sunrise
In the prison of the night
'Til bursting forth from rocky chains
The valley floods with light
Living one long sunrise
For to me all things are new
I've never watched the sky grow pale
Or strolled through fields of dew
I do not know of dust to dust
I live from breath to breath
I live to climb that mountain
To the Fountain of Lamneth
'Yet my eyes are drawn toward
The mountain in the east
Fascinates and captivates
Gives my heart no peace
The mountain holds the sunrise
In the prison of the night
'Til bursting forth from rocky chains
The valley floods with light'
[II. Didacts and Narpets]
Stay! Go!
Work! No!
Think! Live!
Earn! Give!
(Wait!)
Fight!
(Laugh!) Right!
Listen!
[III. No One At the Bridge]
Crying back to consciousness
The coldness grips my skin
The sky is pitching violently
Drawn by shrieking winds
Seaspray blurs my vision
Waves roll by so fast
Save my ship of freedom
I'm lashed helpless to the mast
Remembering when first I held
The wheel in my own hands
I took the helm so eagerly
And sailed for distant lands
But now the sea's too heavy
And I just...I just don't understand
Why must my crew desert me?
When I need...I need a guiding hand...
Call out for direction
And there's no one there to steer
Shout out for salvation
But there's no one there to hear
Cry out supplication
For the maelstrom is near
Scream out desperation
But no one cares to hear
[IV. Panacea]
The whiteness of confusion
Is unfolding from my mind
I stare around in wonder
Have I left my life behind?
I catch the scent of ambergris
And turn my head, surprised
My gaze is caught and held and I
Am helpless...mesmerized
Panacea, liquid grace
Oh let me touch your fragile face
Enchantment falls around me
And I know I cannot leave
Here's a meaning for my life
A shelter from the storm
Pacify my troubles with
Her body, soft and warm
Naked in our unity
A smile for every tear
Gentle hands that promise me
Comfort through the years
Yet I know I must be gone
Before the light of dawn
Panacea, passion pure
I can't resist your gentle lure
My heart will lie beside you
And my wandering body grieves
[V. Bacchus Plateau]
Another endless day
Silhouettes of grey
Another glass of wine
Drink with eyes that shine
Today's without that chill at morning
Long night's time out of mind
Draw another goblet
From the cask of '43
Crimson misty memory
Hazy glimpse of me
Give me back my wonder
I've something more to give
I guess it doesn't matter
There's not much more to
Not much more to live
Another foggy dawn
The mountain almost gone
Another doubtful fear
The road is not so clear
My soul grows ever weary
And the end is ever near
'Draw another goblet
From the cask of '43
Crimson misty memory
Hazy glimpse of me
Give me back my wonder
~ I've something more to give
I guess it doesn't matter
~ There's not much more to
Not much more to live'
[VI. The Fountain]
Look! The mist is rising
And the sun is peaking through
See the steps grow lighter
As I reach their final few
Hear the dancing waters
I must be drawing near
Feel, my heart is pounding
With embattled hope and fear
Now, at last I fall before
The Fountain of Lamneth
I thought I would be singing
But I'm tired...out of breath
Many journeys end here
But, the secret's told the same
Life is just a candle and a dream
Must give it flame
The key, the end, the answer
Stripped of their disguise
Still it's all confusion
And tears spring to my eyes
Though I've reached a signpost
It's really not the end
Like Old Sol behind the mountain
I'll be coming up again
I'm in motion
I am still
I am crying
I am...still
I'm together
I'm apart
I'm forever
At the start
And still...I am

The Fountain Of Lamneth (traducción LyricVerse Team)
[I. En el Valle]
Nací
Soy yo
Soy nuevo
Soy libre
Mírame
Soy joven
Vista no vista
Vida no cantada
Mis ojos acaban de abrirse
Y están muy abiertos
Imágenes a mi alrededor
No se identifican dentro
Solo un borrón reconozco
El que calma y alimenta
Mi forma de vida es fácil
Y mis necesidades son igual de simples
Sin embargo, mis ojos se sienten atraídos hacia
La montaña en el este
Fascina y cautiva
No da paz a mi corazón
La montaña retiene el amanecer
En la prisión de la noche
Hasta que, estallando de cadenas rocosas
El valle se inunda de luz
Viviendo un largo amanecer
Porque para mí todo es nuevo
Nunca he visto el cielo palidecer
Ni paseado por campos de rocío
No sé de polvo a polvo
Vivo de aliento en aliento
Vivo para escalar esa montaña
A la Fuente de Lamneth
'Sin embargo, mis ojos se sienten atraídos hacia
La montaña en el este
Fascina y cautiva
No da paz a mi corazón
La montaña retiene el amanecer
En la prisión de la noche
Hasta que, estallando de cadenas rocosas
El valle se inunda de luz'
[II. Didactas y Narpets]
¡Quédate! ¡Vete!
¡Trabaja! ¡No!
¡Piensa! ¡Vive!
¡Gana! ¡Da!
(¡Espera!)
¡Lucha!
(¡Ríe!) ¡Bien!
¡Escucha!
[III. Nadie en el Puente]
Volviendo a la conciencia llorando
El frío me agarra la piel
El cielo se inclina violentamente
Arrastrado por vientos que chillan
La espuma del mar nubla mi visión
Las olas pasan tan rápido
Salva mi barco de la libertad
Estoy atado indefenso al mástil
Recordando cuando por primera vez sostuve
El timón en mis propias manos
Tomé el timón con tanta avidez
Y navegué hacia tierras lejanas
Pero ahora el mar es demasiado pesado
Y yo simplemente... simplemente no entiendo
¿Por qué mi tripulación debe abandonarme?
Cuando necesito... necesito una mano que me guíe...
Pido dirección
Y no hay nadie para dirigir
Grito por salvación
Pero no hay nadie para escuchar
Clamo súplica
Porque el torbellino está cerca
Grito desesperación
Pero a nadie le importa escuchar
[IV. Panacea]
La blancura de la confusión
Se despliega de mi mente
Miro a mi alrededor con asombro
¿He dejado mi vida atrás?
Capto el aroma del ámbar gris
Y giro la cabeza, sorprendido
Mi mirada es atrapada y retenida y yo
Estoy indefenso... hipnotizado
Panacea, gracia líquida
Oh, déjame tocar tu frágil rostro
El encanto cae a mi alrededor
Y sé que no puedo irme
Aquí hay un significado para mi vida
Un refugio de la tormenta
Pacifica mis problemas con
Su cuerpo, suave y cálido
Desnudos en nuestra unidad
Una sonrisa por cada lágrima
Manos suaves que me prometen
Consuelo a través de los años
Sin embargo, sé que debo irme
Antes de la luz del amanecer
Panacea, pasión pura
No puedo resistir tu suave encanto
Mi corazón yacerá a tu lado
Y mi cuerpo errante se lamenta
[V. Meseta de Baco]
Otro día interminable
Siluetas de gris
Otra copa de vino
Beber con ojos que brillan
Hoy sin ese frío matutino
El tiempo de la larga noche fuera de la mente
Saca otra copa
Del barril del '43
Memoria brumosa carmesí
Vistazo borroso de mí
Devuélveme mi asombro
Tengo algo más que dar
Supongo que no importa
No hay mucho más que
No mucho más que vivir
Otro amanecer brumoso
La montaña casi desaparecida
Otro miedo dudoso
El camino no está tan claro
Mi alma se cansa cada vez más
Y el final está cada vez más cerca
'Saca otra copa
Del barril del '43
Memoria brumosa carmesí
Vistazo borroso de mí
Devuélveme mi asombro
~ Tengo algo más que dar
Supongo que no importa
~ No hay mucho más que
No mucho más que vivir'
[VI. La Fuente]
¡Mira! La niebla está subiendo
Y el sol está asomando
Ve los escalones volverse más claros
Mientras alcanzo los últimos
Escucha las aguas danzantes
Debo estar acercándome
Siento, mi corazón late con fuerza
Con esperanza y miedo en batalla
Ahora, por fin caigo ante
La Fuente de Lamneth
Pensé que estaría cantando
Pero estoy cansado... sin aliento
Muchos viajes terminan aquí
Pero, el secreto se cuenta igual
La vida es solo una vela y un sueño
Hay que darle llama
La llave, el final, la respuesta
Despojados de su disfraz
Todavía es todo confusión
Y las lágrimas brotan de mis ojos
Aunque he llegado a un hito
Realmente no es el final
Como el Viejo Sol detrás de la montaña
Volveré a subir
Estoy en movimiento
Estoy quieto
Estoy llorando
Estoy... quieto
Estoy junto
Estoy separado
Soy para siempre
Al principio
Y aún así... soy
