The Decemberists - Don't carry it all

The Decemberists es un ya veterano grupo de Oregón liderado por Colin Meloy. En su haber tienen seis discos de estudio y otros tantos EP's, el primero 5 songs, en 2001. Y a principios de este año, lanzaban su último disco The king is dead, y que llegó a ser número 1 en EEUU. Y hoy, y toca poner la canción con la que se abre el disco Don't carry it all.

Es una pena que el grupo no tenga conciertos programados más allá de los Estados Unidos, si andais por ahí os diré que el 25 estarán en Chicago, el 26 en Cleveland y el 27 en Interlochen (Michigan), seguramente os de un poco igual pero yo lo digo...

Here we come to a turning of the season
Witness to the arc towards the sun
And neighbors' blessed burden within reason
Becomes a burden born of all and one
And nobody, nobody knows

Let the yoke fall from our shoulders
Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
We are all our hands and holders
Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
And this I swear to all

Monument to build beneath the arbors
Upon a cliff that towers towards the trees
But every vessel pitching hard to starboard
Lay its head on summer's freckled knees
And nobody, nobody knows

Let the yoke fall from our shoulders
Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
We are all our hands and holders
Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
And this I swear to all
And this I swear to all

And there a wreath of trillium and ivy
Laid upon the body of a boy
Lazy will the long come from its high beam
Return this quiet certitude to the soil

So raise a glass to turnings of the season
And watch it as it arcs towards the sun
And you must bear your neighbor's burden within reason
And your labors will be born when all is done
And nobody, nobody knows

Let the yoke fall from our shoulders
Don't carry it all, don't carry it all
We are all our hands and holders
Beneath this bold and brilliant sun
And this I swear to all
And this I swear to all
And this I swear to all
