Sunshine In Their Eyes by Stevie Wonder
Lyrics & Translation
English
A lonesome tear
A hungry face
A barren pain
A dream unchased
Oh, I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes
A prayer is heard
By one so small
Let love be in the
Hearts of all
Oh, I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes
You and I may never see them cry
Or wonder why the world's so cold
(You feel that they're too young
To take a look around)
But in their faces I can see the trouble all around
Today we must turn into lies
The truth already in their minds
Oh, I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes
(We can't wait to see the day there's sunshine in our eyes)
Oh no, no
(Sunshine in our eyes)
Oh my mother's worried 'cause she feels the world is ending
She believes that everything is coming to an end
Papa's staying real careful, 'cause his brother Sam was robbed
Trying to buy just a loaf of bread for baby John
(See how the world escaped)
All the streets turning bare
(Most of the news is bad)
Crime just feeds in the air
Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening
Wit is the tune
Are we all doomed?
Everything is happening
Cost of livings up, but the pay is low down
Hate to see the babies starve 'cause mamma can't be found
Sister lives alone, bolts and chains the door at night
Never ever walks an alley or a shorter way
(See how the world escaped)
All the streets turning bare
(Most of the news is bad)
Crime just feeds in the air
Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening
Wit is the tune
Are we all doomed?
Everything is happening
Father Bills gone fighting in a place where he's a stranger
But could men die a stranger in every war
We all hide in shame, boldly pointing to another
When the blame we know for sure is right in ourselves
In ourselves, in ourselves, in ourselves, in ourselves
Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening
Wit is the tune
Are we all doomed?
Everything is happening
Everybody sing it now
Get it!
Get it!

Sunshine In Their Eyes (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Una lágrima solitaria
Una cara hambrienta
Un dolor estéril
Un sueño no perseguido
Oh, no puedo esperar hasta el día en que haya sol en sus ojos
Una oración es escuchada
Por uno tan pequeño
Que el amor esté en los
Corazones de todos
Oh, no puedo esperar hasta el día en que haya sol en sus ojos
Tú y yo quizás nunca los veamos llorar
O nos preguntemos por qué el mundo es tan frío
(Sientes que son demasiado jóvenes
Para echar un vistazo alrededor)
Pero en sus caras puedo ver el problema por todas partes
Hoy debemos convertir en mentiras
La verdad que ya está en sus mentes
Oh, no puedo esperar hasta el día en que haya sol en sus ojos
(No podemos esperar a ver el día en que haya sol en nuestros ojos)
Oh no, no
(Sol en nuestros ojos)
Oh, mi madre está preocupada porque siente que el mundo se está acabando
Ella cree que todo está llegando a su fin
Papá se está cuidando mucho, porque a su hermano Sam lo robaron
Intentando comprar solo una barra de pan para el pequeño John
(Mira cómo el mundo escapó)
Todas las calles se vuelven desoladas
(La mayoría de las noticias son malas)
El crimen simplemente se alimenta en el aire
Triste es la canción
Que sigue rodando
Todo está sucediendo
El ingenio es la melodía
¿Estamos todos condenados?
Todo está sucediendo
El costo de vida sube, pero el salario baja
Odio ver a los bebés morir de hambre porque mamá no puede ser encontrada
Hermana vive sola, echa cerrojos y cadenas a la puerta por la noche
Nunca camina por un callejón o un atajo
(Mira cómo el mundo escapó)
Todas las calles se vuelven desoladas
(La mayoría de las noticias son malas)
El crimen simplemente se alimenta en el aire
Triste es la canción
Que sigue rodando
Todo está sucediendo
El ingenio es la melodía
¿Estamos todos condenados?
Todo está sucediendo
El Padre Bill se fue a luchar a un lugar donde es un extraño
Pero ¿podrían los hombres morir como extraños en cada guerra?
Todos nos escondemos avergonzados, señalando audazmente a otro
Cuando la culpa que sabemos con certeza está en nosotros mismos
En nosotros mismos, en nosotros mismos, en nosotros mismos, en nosotros mismos
Triste es la canción
Que sigue rodando
Todo está sucediendo
El ingenio es la melodía
¿Estamos todos condenados?
Todo está sucediendo
¡Todos canten ahora!
¡Vamos!
¡Vamos!
