The Trees by Rush
Lyrics & Translation
English
There is unrest in the forest
There is trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas
The trouble with the maples
(And they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made
And they wonder why the maples
Can't be happy in their shade
There is trouble in the forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the maples scream 'Oppression!'
And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights
'The oaks are just too greedy
We will make them give us light'
Now there's no more oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe and saw

Spanish translation of The Trees by Rush
The Trees* (original Rush)
There is unrest in the forest
There is trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas
The trouble with the maples
(And they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made
And they wonder why the maples
Can't be happy in their shade
There is trouble in the forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the maples scream 'Oppression!'
And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights
'The oaks are just too greedy
We will make them give us light'
Now there's no more oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe and saw
The Trees (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Hay inquietud en el bosque
Hay problemas con los árboles
Porque los arces quieren más luz solar
Y los robles ignoran sus súplicas
El problema con los arces
(Y están bastante convencidos de que tienen razón)
Dicen que los robles son demasiado altos
Y acaparan toda la luz
Pero los robles no pueden evitar sus sentimientos
Si les gusta cómo están hechos
Y se preguntan por qué los arces
No pueden ser felices en su sombra
Hay problemas en el bosque
Y todas las criaturas han huido
Mientras los arces gritan '¡Opresión!'
Y los robles solo niegan con la cabeza
Así que los arces formaron un sindicato
Y exigieron igualdad de derechos
'Los robles son demasiado codiciosos
Les haremos darnos luz'
Ahora no hay más opresión de los robles
Porque aprobaron una ley noble
Y todos los árboles se mantienen iguales
Con hacha, azuela y sierra
