Rock Salt and Nails Lyrics – Joan Baez
Singer: Joan Baez
Title: Rock Salt and Nails
On the banks of the river, where the willows hang down,
Where the wild birds all warble with a low moaning sound,
Down in the hollow where the water runs cold,
It’s there I have listened to the lies that you told.
Now I lie on my bed and I see your sweet face.
The past I remember, time cannot erase.
The letters you wrote me were written in shame,
And I know that your conscience still echos my pain.
Now the nights are so long, my sorrow runs deep.
Nothing is worse than a night without sleep.
I walk out alone, I look at the sky,
Too empty to sing, too lonesome to cry.
Now if the ladies were blackbirds and the ladies were thrushes,
I’d lie there for hours in the chilly cold marshes.
If the ladies were squirrels with them high bushy tails,
I’d fill up my shotgun with rock salt and nails.

Rock Salt and Nails – Terjemahan / Translation
Di tepi sungai, di mana willow menggantung,
Di mana burung-burung liar semuanya berbulu dengan suara erangan rendah,
Turun di lubang di mana air mengalir dingin,
Itu di sana saya telah mendengarkan kebohongan yang Anda katakan.
Sekarang saya berbaring di tempat tidur dan saya melihat wajah manis Anda.
Masa lalu saya ingat, waktu tidak dapat menghapus.
Huruf yang Anda tulis saya ditulis dengan malu,
Dan saya tahu bahwa hati nurani Anda masih menggemakan rasa sakit saya.
Sekarang malam itu begitu lama, kesedihan saya berlangsung dalam.
Tidak ada yang lebih buruk daripada malam tanpa tidur.
Aku berjalan sendirian, aku melihat langit,
Terlalu kosong untuk bernyanyi, terlalu sepi untuk menangis.
Sekarang jika para wanita adalah Blackbirds dan para wanita berjenjam,
Saya akan berbaring di sana selama berjam-jam di rawa-rawa dingin yang dingin.
Jika para wanita tupai dengan mereka ekor lebat yang tinggi,
Saya akan mengisi senapan saya dengan garam dan kuku batu.
