Cuenta una vieja leyenda
dentro 'e los montes pampeanos,
de un payador que ha existido,
Sombra de olvido murmura en su canto
Translation:
As an old legend tells
within the plains of the pampas,
a minstrel that ever lived,
shadow of oblivion murmurs in his singing.

The Minstrel's Song
05:54
|
|||
|
Somewhere on the plains
among the fields in southern lands
when the lights begin to fall
and the veil of darkness arise
'shadow of a man
crawling in silence through the mist
as he turns before the well
striking down on the strings
for a sound that is calling his name.
Rings the sound of those old strings singing,
hear the voice of the minstrel´s song!
When the thunder breaks
the steady silence of the night,
the lightening hits the ground,
sets on fire the tree as it falls.
(Falls from the sky!)
Riding through the dark
the minstrel runs across the plains,
carries on 'til the dawn
for the liberty of his countrymen!
Rings the sound of those old strings singing,
hear the voice of the minstrel´s song!
Fighting for freedom he stands another day!
(Justice remains!)
Hear the voice of the minstrel singing
and his words will prevail until the end!
Por la inmensidad
de los montes viaja el payador,
en su canto una lagrima
y un quebranto de pena y dolor
Translation:
Through the vastness of the fields
the Minstrel travels,
a tear in his song
and a grief of sorrow and pain
Rings the sound of those old strings singing,
hear the voice of the minstrel song!
Fighting for freedom he stands another day!
(Justice remains!)
Hear the voice of the minstrel singing,
growing shadow before the well
Riding forward across this green fields
spreading freedom throughout the land
Hear the voice of the minstrel singing,
growing shadow before the well
There's no other who can defeat him on his game!
Rings the sound of those old strings singing,
hear the voice of the minstrel song!
He's the shield of the helpless people
against tyranny he will stand his ground and fight!
Stand and fight!

Llegando el alba a la cima
vierte la luz de su manto
y cuando el sol ilumina
cae en olvido el cantor y su canto...
Translation:
as dawn is reaching the summit
it sheds the light of his mantle
and when the sun shines on
falls into oblivion the chanter and his song...

The Voice Of Progress...
05:04
|
|||
|
Here it comes the rider's on the run
towards the minstrel on his mighty horse
'Steps in front the man and his guitar
to defy him in a duel til the end
The minstrel raise,
looks the devil in the eyes
stretching his arm towards his guitar
he face the evil man
and start to play
and with a babattlecry the war begins
with rage a rumble strikes the land
their songs collide on and on
the strings draw sparkles in the sky
as their words clash with power upon the air
The devil raise,
looks the minstrel in the eyes
and start to fade our heroe's light
he drags him to the dark
on his own game
the voice of progress will prevail
In the end the progress won the game
and broke the minstrel apart
Fighting back the hero of the light
went down and fell on the devil's hand!
Solo bajo el arbol quedará
hijo de la pampa pena en soledad
trae su recuerdo el viento al cantar
ocultando la huella al pasar
Fallling through the shadows of the night
into the oblivion slipping to the dark
whispers of the wind bring his memory back
on the minstrel a legend will raise
Raising from the shadows of the night
singing with the wind from the mountains to the shore
free among the green fields his spirit will grow
on the minstrel a legend will raise

A Legend Will Raise
02:14
|
|||
|
Solo bajo el arbol quedará,
hijo de la pampa pena en soledad,
trae su recuerdo el viento al cantar
ocultando la huella al pasar.
Transaltion:
Alone under the tree he'll remains,
son of the pampas grives in solitude,
the chant of the wind bring his memory back
blurring the trace as int passes through.
Fallling through the shadows of the night
into the oblivion slipping to the dark
whispers of the wind bring his memory back
on the minstrel a legend will raise
Raising from the shadows of the night
singing with the wind from the mountains to the shore
free among the green fields his spirit will grow
on the minstrel a legend will raise

One more year passing by,
sandclock's rushing tonight,
time runs merciless to the dawn
Odd sensation appears:
is the end coming near?
Closure walls heading on to me
In to the fire we ride
climbing up til we reach to the top
chasing the dreams to the sky
facing our fears taking a chance
Into the fire we ride
we won't stop till our dream comes alive
Mindset is falling apart
on reality's hands,
piece by piece we're trying to mend it back
The train already left town
and hope abandoned the ground,
only a spark has remained intact
Into the board we were thrown long ago,
as pieces we're moving ahead.
Down through the path we must fall and rise
so we have to believe in ourselves
Into the fire we ride...
Into the fire we ride...
Into the fire we ride we won't stop til our dream
comes around through the fire and rise
climbing up 'till we reach to the top
chasing the dreams to the sky
facing our fears taking a chance
Into the fire we ride
we won't stop till our dream comes alive...
we won't stop till our dream comes to life

Lejos de la capital
entre valles y quebradas
tras un cause de agua van
viejas vías solitarias
leading to a distant land
through the river and the mountains
This one's a story forgotten in time,
hidden beyond through the mountains,
crossing the valleys into the ravine,
railroad has come.
People were leaving the city behind,
reaching the promise land
the train was the bringer of progress to town,
sorrow and tears left behind.
People were coming from further away,
millionaire contracts were sign on those
days,
out from the wine grew the pleasure and
vice,
blest by the touch of the demon's hand.
The train carries on
reaching to the end
through the valleys and mountains ahead
Now the train carries on
passing through the space and time,
the rumbling from the rails
breaks the silence of the night
Now the train carries on
cross the valleys to the dawn,
whispers fills the air
from a ghost town that's been left behind
Promise of progress was driven apart,
the war on the world had begun
broken illusion, betrayed without cause,
the locals begun to leave town.
Now the train will fall apart
and the shadows will arise
as the railroad's getting lost into the dark
Now the train carries on
passing through the space and time,
the rumbling from the rails
breaks the silence of the night
Now the train carries on
cross the valleys to the dawn,
whispers fills the air
from a ghost town that's been left behind
Now the train carries on
passing through the space and time,
(space and time)
the rumbling from the rails
breaks the silence in the dead of night
Now the train carries on
cross the valleys to the dawn,
whispers fills the air
from a ghost town that has
been left back in time.
Left behind
Lejos de la capital
entre valles y quebradas
tras un cause de agua van
viejas vías solitarias

Flies In Amber Stones
by Hillward
supported by 4 fans who also own “Santos Vega”
My choice of a favourite song is not set in stone; there are a lot of subtleties to absorb in these songs, both lyrically and instrumentally. I can say, with conviction, that this is top tier neo~prog in the vein of Porcupine Tree, and it often hits 🎯on my ‘musical quest dartboard’. Lyrics are thoughtful and personal, and the accompanying music is always a complementary partner that walks hand in hand with the vocals. Hillward’s sound is satisfyingly diverse and pleasurable. 8+\10.
