Paroles et traduction Negu Gorriak - Bakartia Hondarribian

Bakartia Hondarribian

Heldu zen, taxiz heldu zen
Bakartia
Higerreko faroan egokitu zen
Bihotz-itsasontziak
Argitzen zituen
Jitoan kai suntsituetatik
Eta gauero euria
Bezalako malkoak
Bere kitarra entzuten
Erortzen ziren
Uhandrearen oihua entzundakoan
Izkina hartu eta
Lokartu egin nintzen

Heriotza eta bakardadea
Lues guztiak abesten zituen
Ametsetan igeri egiten nuen
Jakina ez dela itzuliko
Nor egongo da berarekin
Gau honetan?
Nork besarkatuko du gogez aldegiteko erregutu nion
Joan zen egunean hil nintzen
Baina ez zen ezer nabaritu

Utzidazu esaten neil young
Urrundu zenean
Ikusi nuela orratzak
Beste lagun bat eramaten
Hondarribiko aireportuan
"Indargabeak"
Txori arriskutsuak
Bakarrik hegan egiten du
Itzal bat bezalakoa da zeruan
Erokeria honek tristura
Gehiegi darama
Bitartean lurreratze
Pista bakartian
Ari du izotza, izotza, izotza...

Solitude in Hondarribia

He came, he came by taxi,
Solitude.
He settled in the lighthouse on high.
The heartships
He would light
In the nights from the ruined pier
And every night the rain
Like tears
Hearing his guitar
Would fall.
Turning the corner at the sound of the seagull
And
I fell asleep.

Death and solitude
He sang all the mourning songs.
I swam in dreams
Knowing that he would not return
Who will be with him
On this night?
Who will hug him happily as I begged him to leave?
I died on the day he left
But nobody noticed.

Let me tell you, Neil Young,
That when he went away
I saw the needles
Take another friend away.
At the airport of Hondarribia
"The weak"
Dangerous birds
Fly alone
They are shadows in the sky.
This madness brings sadness
Over and over again.
Meanwhile, on the landing
On a lonely track
It's freezing, freezing, freezing...
