Love Without End, Amen
Aaron Gayle Barker
I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why
When dad got home I told that story just like I'd rehearsed
Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waitin' for the worst
And he said
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
He said daddies don't just love their children every now and then
It's a love without end, amen
It's a love without end, amen
When I became a father in the spring of '81
There was no doubt that stubborn boy was just like my father's son
And when I thought my patience had been tested to the end
I took my daddy's secret and I passed it on to him
I said
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
I said daddies don't just love their children every now and then
It's a love without end, amen
It's a love without end, amen
Last night, I dreamed I'd died and stood outside those pearly gates
When suddenly I realized there must be some mistake
If they know half the things I've done, they'll never let me in
And then somewhere from the other side, I heard these words again
And they said
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
You see daddies don't just love their children every now and then
It's a love without end, amen
It's a love without end, amen
I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Fui mandado para casa da escola um dia com um olho roxo
Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why
Lutar era contra as regras e não importava o motivo
When dad got home I told that story just like I'd rehearsed
Quando o pai chegou em casa, contei aquela história como se tivesse ensaiado
Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waitin' for the worst
Então fiquei ali, de joelhos tremendo, esperando o pior
And he said
E ele disse
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
Deixe-me contar um segredo sobre o amor de um pai
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
Um segredo que meu pai disse que era só entre nós
He said daddies don't just love their children every now and then
Ele disse que os pais não amam seus filhos de vez em quando
It's a love without end, amen
É um amor sem fim, amém
It's a love without end, amen
É um amor sem fim, amém
When I became a father in the spring of '81
Quando me tornei pai na primavera de '81
There was no doubt that stubborn boy was just like my father's son
Não havia dúvida de que aquele menino teimoso era igual ao filho do meu pai
And when I thought my patience had been tested to the end
E quando pensei que minha paciência tinha sido testada até o fim
I took my daddy's secret and I passed it on to him
Peguei o segredo do meu pai e passei para ele
I said
Eu disse
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
Deixe-me contar um segredo sobre o amor de um pai
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
Um segredo que meu pai disse que era só entre nós
I said daddies don't just love their children every now and then
Eu disse que os pais não amam seus filhos de vez em quando
It's a love without end, amen
É um amor sem fim, amém
It's a love without end, amen
É um amor sem fim, amém
Last night, I dreamed I'd died and stood outside those pearly gates
Na noite passada, sonhei que tinha morrido e estava do lado de fora dos portões perolados
When suddenly I realized there must be some mistake
De repente percebi que deve haver algum erro
If they know half the things I've done, they'll never let me in
Se eles souberem metade das coisas que fiz, nunca me deixarão entrar
And then somewhere from the other side, I heard these words again
E então, de algum lugar do outro lado, ouvi essas palavras novamente
And they said
E eles disseram
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
Deixe-me contar um segredo sobre o amor de um pai
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
Um segredo que meu pai disse que era só entre nós
You see daddies don't just love their children every now and then
Você vê, os pais não amam seus filhos de vez em quando
It's a love without end, amen
É um amor sem fim, amém
It's a love without end, amen
É um amor sem fim, amém
I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Me enviaron a casa de la escuela un día con un ojo morado
Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why
Pelear estaba en contra de las reglas y no importaba por qué
When dad got home I told that story just like I'd rehearsed
Cuando papá llegó a casa conté esa historia tal como la había ensayado
Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waitin' for the worst
Luego me quedé allí con las rodillas temblorosas y esperando lo peor
And he said
Y él dijo
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
Déjame contarte un secreto sobre el amor de un padre
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
Un secreto que mi papá dijo que era solo entre nosotros
He said daddies don't just love their children every now and then

Y cuando pensé que mi paciencia había sido probada hasta el final
I took my daddy's secret and I passed it on to him
Tomé el secreto de mi papá y se lo pasé
I said
Dije

Last night, I dreamed I'd died and stood outside those pearly gates
Anoche, soñé que moría y estaba parado afuera de esas puertas nacaradas
When suddenly I realized there must be some mistake
Cuando de repente me di cuenta que debe haber algún error
If they know half the things I've done, they'll never let me in
Si saben la mitad de las cosas que he hecho, nunca me dejarán entrar
And then somewhere from the other side, I heard these words again
Y luego en algún lugar del otro lado, escuché estas palabras de nuevo
And they said
Y dijeron
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
Déjame contarte un secreto sobre el amor de un padre
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
Un secreto que mi papá dijo que era solo entre nosotros

I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Un jour, on m'a renvoyé de l'école avec un cocard à l'œil
Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why
Se battre était contre les règles et peu importe pourquoi
When dad got home I told that story just like I'd rehearsed
Quand papa est rentré à la maison, j'ai raconté cette histoire comme si je l'avais répétée
Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waitin' for the worst
Puis je suis resté là, sur ces genoux tremblants, attendant le pire
And he said
Et il a dit
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
Laisse-moi te dire un secret sur l'amour d'un père
A secret that my daddy said was just between us

Et quand j'ai pensé que ma patience avait été mise à l'épreuve jusqu'à la fin
I took my daddy's secret and I passed it on to him
J'ai pris le secret de mon papa et je l'ai transmis à lui

Last night, I dreamed I'd died and stood outside those pearly gates
La nuit dernière, j'ai rêvé que j'étais mort et que je me tenais devant ces portes de perles
When suddenly I realized there must be some mistake
Quand soudain, j'ai réalisé qu'il devait y avoir une erreur
If they know half the things I've done, they'll never let me in
S'ils savent la moitié des choses que j'ai faites, ils ne me laisseront jamais entrer
And then somewhere from the other side, I heard these words again
Et puis quelque part de l'autre côté, j'ai entendu ces mots à nouveau
And they said
Et ils ont dit

Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why
Kämpfen war gegen die Regeln und es spielte keine Rolle warum
When dad got home I told that story just like I'd rehearsed
Als Papa nach Hause kam, erzählte ich diese Geschichte, genau wie ich sie geübt hatte
Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waitin' for the worst
Dann stand ich da auf diesen zitternden Knien und wartete auf das Schlimmste

Last night, I dreamed I'd died and stood outside those pearly gates
Letzte Nacht träumte ich, ich wäre gestorben und stand vor diesen perligen Toren

Plötzlich wurde mir klar, dass es einen Fehler geben muss
If they know half the things I've done, they'll never let me in
Wenn sie die Hälfte der Dinge wissen, die ich getan habe, werden sie mich nie reinlassen
And then somewhere from the other side, I heard these words again
Und dann hörte ich irgendwo von der anderen Seite diese Worte wieder

La scorsa notte, ho sognato di essere morto e di stare fuori da quelle porte di perla

If they know half the things I've done, they'll never let me in
Se sanno metà delle cose che ho fatto, non mi lasceranno mai entrare
And then somewhere from the other side, I heard these words again
E poi da qualche parte dall'altra parte, ho sentito di nuovo queste parole
And they said
E hanno detto
