Cruel World
Daniel Roland Lanois
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
I've been living too fast
And I've been living too long
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
This big ol' world sure got me running 'round
I heard a voice that said, "Just settle down"
And with the moonlight as my guide
And with this feeling deep inside
I know now that I am homeward bound
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
I've been living too fast
And I've been living too long
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Desert rose, desert plain
I have seen so much pain
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
No more, no more, cruel world
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
I've been living too fast
And I've been living too wrong
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Grausame, grausame Welt, muss ich weitermachen?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Grausame, grausame Welt, ich ziehe weiter
I've been living too fast
Ich habe zu schnell gelebt
And I've been living too long
Und ich habe zu lange gelebt
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Grausame, grausame Welt, ich bin weg
This big ol' world sure got me running 'round
Diese große alte Welt hat mich sicherlich herumlaufen lassen
I heard a voice that said, "Just settle down"
Ich hörte eine Stimme, die sagte: „Beruhige dich einfach“
And with the moonlight as my guide
Und mit dem Mondlicht als meinem Führer
And with this feeling deep inside
Und mit diesem Gefühl tief in mir drin
I know now that I am homeward bound
Ich weiß jetzt, dass ich auf dem Heimweg bin
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Grausame, grausame Welt, muss ich weitermachen?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Grausame, grausame Welt, ich ziehe weiter
I've been living too fast
Ich habe zu schnell gelebt
And I've been living too long
Und ich habe zu lange gelebt
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Grausame, grausame Welt, ich bin weg
Desert rose, desert plain
Wüstenrose, Wüstenebene
I have seen so much pain
Ich habe so viel Schmerz gesehen
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
Jetzt sehe ich in die Augen eines Mädchens
No more, no more, cruel world
Nicht mehr, nicht mehr, grausame Welt
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Grausame, grausame Welt, muss ich weitermachen?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Grausame, grausame Welt, ich ziehe weiter
I've been living too fast
Ich habe zu schnell gelebt
And I've been living too wrong
Und ich habe zu falsch gelebt
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Grausame, grausame Welt, ich bin weg
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Mundo cruel, cruel, devo continuar?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Mundo cruel, cruel, estou seguindo em frente
I've been living too fast
Eu tenho vivido rápido demais
And I've been living too long
E eu tenho vivido por tempo demais
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Mundo cruel, cruel, eu me fui
This big ol' world sure got me running 'round
Este grande mundo com certeza me fez correr
I heard a voice that said, "Just settle down"
Eu ouvi uma voz que disse: "Apenas se acalme"
And with the moonlight as my guide
E com a luz do luar como meu guia
And with this feeling deep inside
E com esse sentimento profundo dentro de mim
I know now that I am homeward bound
Agora sei que estou a caminho de casa
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Mundo cruel, cruel, devo continuar?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Mundo cruel, cruel, estou seguindo em frente
I've been living too fast
Eu tenho vivido rápido demais
And I've been living too long
E eu tenho vivido por tempo demais
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Mundo cruel, cruel, eu me fui
Desert rose, desert plain
Rosa do deserto, planície do deserto
I have seen so much pain
Eu vi tanta dor
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
Agora eu vejo nos olhos de uma garota
No more, no more, cruel world
Não mais, não mais, mundo cruel
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Mundo cruel, cruel, devo continuar?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Mundo cruel, cruel, estou seguindo em frente
I've been living too fast
Eu tenho vivido rápido demais
And I've been living too wrong
E eu tenho vivido de maneira errada
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Mundo cruel, cruel, eu me fui
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Mundo cruel, cruel, ¿debo seguir adelante?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Mundo cruel, cruel, estoy avanzando
I've been living too fast
He estado viviendo demasiado rápido
And I've been living too long
Y he estado viviendo demasiado tiempo
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Mundo cruel, cruel, me he ido
This big ol' world sure got me running 'round
Este gran viejo mundo seguro me tiene corriendo
I heard a voice that said, "Just settle down"
Escuché una voz que decía: "Solo cálmate"
And with the moonlight as my guide
Y con la luz de la luna como mi guía
And with this feeling deep inside
Y con este sentimiento profundo dentro
I know now that I am homeward bound
Ahora sé que estoy en camino a casa
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Mundo cruel, cruel, ¿debo seguir adelante?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Mundo cruel, cruel, estoy avanzando
I've been living too fast
He estado viviendo demasiado rápido
And I've been living too long
Y he estado viviendo demasiado tiempo
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Mundo cruel, cruel, me he ido
Desert rose, desert plain
Rosa del desierto, llanura del desierto
I have seen so much pain
He visto tanto dolor
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
Ahora veo en los ojos de una chica
No more, no more, cruel world
No más, no más, mundo cruel
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Mundo cruel, cruel, ¿debo seguir adelante?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Mundo cruel, cruel, estoy avanzando
I've been living too fast
He estado viviendo demasiado rápido
And I've been living too wrong
Y he estado viviendo de manera incorrecta
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Mundo cruel, cruel, me he ido
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Monde cruel, cruel, dois-je continuer ?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Monde cruel, cruel, je passe à autre chose
I've been living too fast
J'ai vécu trop vite
And I've been living too long
Et j'ai vécu trop longtemps
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Monde cruel, cruel, je suis parti
This big ol' world sure got me running 'round
Ce grand vieux monde m'a certainement fait courir
I heard a voice that said, "Just settle down"
J'ai entendu une voix qui disait : "Calme-toi"
And with the moonlight as my guide
Et avec le clair de lune comme guide
And with this feeling deep inside
Et avec ce sentiment profond à l'intérieur
I know now that I am homeward bound
Je sais maintenant que je suis en route vers la maison
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Monde cruel, cruel, dois-je continuer ?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Monde cruel, cruel, je passe à autre chose
I've been living too fast
J'ai vécu trop vite

Monde cruel, cruel, je suis parti
Desert rose, desert plain
Rose du désert, plaine du désert
I have seen so much pain
J'ai vu tant de douleur
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
Maintenant je vois dans les yeux d'une fille
No more, no more, cruel world
Plus jamais, plus jamais, monde cruel
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Monde cruel, cruel, dois-je continuer ?

Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Crudele, crudele mondo, devo andare avanti?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Crudele, crudele mondo, sto andando avanti
I've been living too fast
Ho vissuto troppo in fretta
And I've been living too long
E ho vissuto troppo a lungo
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Crudele, crudele mondo, me ne sono andato
This big ol' world sure got me running 'round
Questo grande vecchio mondo mi ha sicuramente fatto correre in giro
I heard a voice that said, "Just settle down"
Ho sentito una voce che diceva, "Semplicemente calmati"
And with the moonlight as my guide
E con la luce della luna come mia guida
And with this feeling deep inside
E con questo sentimento profondo dentro di me
I know now that I am homeward bound
So ora che sono diretto verso casa
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Crudele, crudele mondo, devo andare avanti?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Crudele, crudele mondo, sto andando avanti
I've been living too fast
Ho vissuto troppo in fretta
And I've been living too long
E ho vissuto troppo a lungo
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Crudele, crudele mondo, me ne sono andato
Desert rose, desert plain
Rosa del deserto, pianura del deserto
I have seen so much pain
Ho visto così tanto dolore
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
Ora vedo negli occhi di una ragazza
No more, no more, cruel world
Non più, non più, mondo crudele
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
Crudele, crudele mondo, devo andare avanti?
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
Crudele, crudele mondo, sto andando avanti
I've been living too fast
Ho vissuto troppo in fretta
And I've been living too wrong
E ho vissuto nel modo sbagliato
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
Crudele, crudele mondo, me ne sono andato
