Tethered For The Storm

The Gentle Good Tethered For The Storm歌詞
1.Aubade

One last time in the darkness
Let's lie still as the night
And hold a shroud to cloud the growing light
Morning holds out a finger
Pale as bone to the sky
A rake that takes the slumber from our eyes

Down by the stream there's a Maple
See how she sheds her leaves
Idle they fall to capture and enthral
And then float away downstream
In the morning

Call the sunrise a streetlamp
Let the moonlight prevail
Call the brazen lark a nightingale
Through the veil of deception
There is one stubborn truth
The one to which we all must travel to

Down by the stream there's a Maple
See how she sheds her leaves
Idle they fall to capture and enthral
And then float away to sea
In the morning light

The moon climbs so high
And fades, fades into a sky of boldest blue
The lark carries on with a morning song

So I stand by the water
Breathing cold morning air
The leaves descend until the tree stands bare


2.Colled

Pan own ger y dyfroedd oer
Yn difa'r lloer a cherrig
Disgynnodd floedd o'r nefoedd
Mewn rhu o wyntoedd ffyrnig

Dros y d?r daeth alarch du
Yn plethu plu pruddglwyfus
Yn llithro'n llwm a phendrwm
Ymysg y bwrlwm stormus

Anodd dala d?r y llyn
Yng nghwpan tynn fy nwylo
Anodd cadw'r alarch draw
O'r baw lle mynnai lanio

Trwm yw'r adain ddu ar rai
Ond pwysa lai ar eraill
Sy'n cydio'n dynn mewn plufyn
A'i dderbyn fel hen gyfaill

Wedi'r deryn tywyll ffoi
A'r gwyntoedd troi'n ddiniwed
Mor anwaraidd yn fy nghraidd
Oedd atsain oeraidd colled

Anodd dala d?r y llyn
Yng nghwpan tynn fy nwylo
Anodd cadw'r alarch draw
O'r baw lle mynnai lanio

Loss

As I was beside the icy depths
Destroying the stars with stones
A roar descended from above
In a gale of fierce winds

Over the water came a black swan
Folding her melancholy wings
Sliding glum and heavy
Amongst the stormy water

Hard to hold the water of the lake
In the tight cup of my hands
Hard to keep the swan away
From the soil where it must land

Heavy is the black wing on some
But it weighs less on those
That grasp her feathers close
And greet her as an old friend

After the dark bird had away
The winds became harmless
So savage in my heart
Was the cold echo of loss

Hard to hold the water of the lake
In the tight cup of my hands
Hard to keep the swan away
From the soil where it must land
