Streets of London

Ralph McTell

Letra Tradução

Have you seen the old man
In a closed-down market?
Kicking up the paper
With his worn out shoes
In his eyes, you see no pride
And held loosely at his side
Yesterday's paper
Telling yesterday's news

So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
Show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old girl
Who walks the streets of London?
Dirt in her hair
And her clothes in rags
She's no time for talking
She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home
In two carrier bags

So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

In the all night café
At a quarter past eleven
Same old man
Sitting there on his own
Looking at the world
Over the rim of his teacup
Each tea lasts an hour
And he wanders home alone

So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
Don't say for you that the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
Show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman's mission?
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears
In our winter city
The rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care

So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
Show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old man
Você viu o velho
In a closed-down market?
Em um mercado fechado?
Kicking up the paper
Chutando o papel
With his worn out shoes
Com seus sapatos desgastados
In his eyes, you see no pride
Em seus olhos, você não vê orgulho
And held loosely at his side
E segurando frouxamente ao seu lado
Yesterday's paper
O jornal de ontem
Telling yesterday's news
Contando as notícias de ontem
So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
Então, como você pode me dizer que está sozinho?
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
E dizer para você que o sol não brilha?
Let me take you by the hand
Deixe-me pegar você pela mão
And lead you through the streets of London
E te levar pelas ruas de Londres
Show you something to make you change your mind
Mostrar algo para fazer você mudar de ideia
Have you seen the old girl
Você viu a velha
Who walks the streets of London?
Que anda pelas ruas de Londres?
Dirt in her hair
Sujeira em seu cabelo
And her clothes in rags
E suas roupas em trapos
She's no time for talking
Ela não tem tempo para conversar
She just keeps right on walking
Ela apenas continua andando
Carrying her home
Carregando sua casa
In two carrier bags
Em duas sacolas de compras
So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
Então, como você pode me dizer que está sozinho?
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
E dizer para você que o sol não brilha?
Let me take you by the hand
Deixe-me pegar você pela mão
And lead you through the streets of London
E te levar pelas ruas de Londres
I'll show you something to make you change your mind
Vou mostrar algo para fazer você mudar de ideia
In the all night café
No café que funciona a noite toda
At a quarter past eleven
Às onze e quinze
Same old man
O mesmo velho
Sitting there on his own
Sentado lá sozinho
Looking at the world
Olhando para o mundo
Over the rim of his teacup
Por cima da borda de sua xícara de chá
Each tea lasts an hour
Cada chá dura uma hora
And he wanders home alone
E ele volta para casa sozinho
So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
Então, como você pode me dizer que está sozinho?
Don't say for you that the sun don't shine
Não diga para você que o sol não brilha
Let me take you by the hand
Deixe-me pegar você pela mão
And lead you through the streets of London
E te levar pelas ruas de Londres
Show you something to make you change your mind
Mostrar algo para fazer você mudar de ideia
Have you seen the old man
Você viu o velho
Outside the seaman's mission?
Fora da missão do marinheiro?
Memory fading with
Memória desvanecendo com
The medal ribbons that he wears
As fitas de medalhas que ele usa
In our winter city
Em nossa cidade de inverno
The rain cries a little pity
A chuva chora um pouco de pena
For one more forgotten hero
Por mais um herói esquecido
And a world that doesn't care
E um mundo que não se importa
So, how can you tell me you're lonely?
Então, como você pode me dizer que está sozinho?
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
E dizer para você que o sol não brilha?
Let me take you by the hand
Deixe-me pegar você pela mão
And lead you through the streets of London
E te levar pelas ruas de Londres
Show you something to make you change your mind
Mostrar algo para fazer você mudar de ideia
Have you seen the old man
¿Has visto al anciano
In a closed-down market?
En un mercado cerrado?
Kicking up the paper
Pateando el papel

Con sus zapatos gastados
In his eyes, you see no pride
En sus ojos, no ves orgullo
And held loosely at his side
Y sujeto con flojedad a su lado
