In the year of thirty-nine In the year of thirty-nine No ano de trinta e nove Assembled here the volunteers Assembled here the volunteers Se reuniram aqui os voluntários In the days when lands were few In the days when lands were few Nos dias em que as terras eram poucas Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn Daqui o navio partiu em direção à manhã azul e ensolarada The sweetest sight ever seen The sweetest sight ever seen A mais bela imagem já vista And the night followed day And the night followed day E a noite seguiu o dia And the story tellers say And the story tellers say E os contadores de histórias dizem That the score brave souls inside That the score brave souls inside Que aquelas bravas almas lá dentro For many a lonely day For many a lonely day Por muitos dias solitários Sailed across the milky seas Sailed across the milky seas Navegaram pelos mares Never looked back never feared never cried Never looked back never feared never cried Nunca olharam para trás, nunca temeram, nunca choraram Don't you hear my call? Don't you hear my call? Você não ouviu meu chamado? Though you're many years away Though you're many years away Embora você esteja muitos anos longe Don't you hear me calling you? Don't you hear me calling you? Você não me ouviu te chamando? Write your letters in the sand Write your letters in the sand Escreva suas letras na areia For the day I'll take your hand For the day I'll take your hand Para o dia que eu pegar sua mão In the land that our grand-children knew In the land that our grand-children knew Na terra que nossos netos conheceram In the year of thirty-nine In the year of thirty-nine No ano de trinta e nove Came a ship from the blue Came a ship from the blue Veio um navio do céu The volunteers came home that day The volunteers came home that day Os voluntários chegaram em casa naquele dia And they bring good news And they bring good news E trouxeram boas notícias Of a world so newly born Of a world so newly born De um mundo recém nascido Though their hearts so heavily weigh Though their hearts so heavily weigh Embora seus corações estivessem tão pesados For the earth is old and grey For the earth is old and grey Pois a terra está velha e cinza Little darlin' we'll away Little darlin' we'll away Minha querida, nós vamos embora But my love this cannot be But my love this cannot be Mas meu amor, isso não pode ser! Oh, so many years have gone Oh, so many years have gone Oh, tantos anos se passaram Though I'm older than a year Though I'm older than a year Embora eu esteja mais velho que um ano Your mothers eyes from your eyes cry to me Your mothers eyes from your eyes cry to me Os olhos de sua mãe, através dos seus, choram para mim! Don't you hear my call? Don't you hear my call? Você não ouviu meu chamado? Though you're many years away Though you're many years away Embora você esteja muitos anos longe Don't you hear me calling you Don't you hear me calling you Você não me ouviu te chamando? Write your letters in the sand Write your letters in the sand Escreva suas letras na areia For the day I'll take your hand For the day I'll take your hand Para o dia que eu pegar sua mão In the land that our grand-children knew In the land that our grand-children knew Na terra que nossos netos conheceram Don't you hear my call? Don't you hear my call? Você não ouviu meu chamado? Though you're many years away Though you're many years away Embora você esteja muitos anos longe Don't you hear me calling you? Don't you hear me calling you? Você não me ouviu te chamando? All your letters in the sand All your letters in the sand Todas as suas cartas na areia Cannot heal me like your hand Cannot heal me like your hand Não podem me curar como sua mão For my life still ahead pity me For my life still ahead pity me Pois minha vida a frente me dá pena
