Lyrics and translation Yasmin Levy - Hallelujah




Hallelujah
Hallelujah
hablar de una canción
I heard there was a song
Del rey David para el Señor
Of the King David for the Lord
Pero a ti los salmos no te gustan
But the psalms don't make you strong
Hay tanta luz en su voz
There's too much light in your chord
Como el dolor mas atroz
Like the pain of the sword
En este roto y santo Aleluya
In this broken, holy Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
(Aleluya-ai!)
(Hallelujah-ah!)
La luna llena le mostró
The full moon on show
En todo su esplendor
In all its splendor
A Batseba, bañandose desnuda
Revealed Bathsheba bathing naked
Y a través de esa mujer
And through this woman
El rey David no supo ver
King David's gone and blown it
Todo en el era Aleluya
Everything about him Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Bien que existe un Dios
There exists a God I know
Pero lo que me enseñó el amor
But what love taught me was
Es a disparar a quien me apunta
To shoot back the bullets when I'm fired at
No es ésto una canción triunfal
This is not a victory cry
Ni el grito de un triste final
Nor the shout of a bitter goodbye
Sino un frío y solitario Aleluya
But a cold, lonely Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Hallelujah
