Juan Camacho

Oh, the time will come up
When the winds will stop
And the breeze will cease to be breathin'
Like the stillness in the wind
Before the hurricane begins
The hour that the ship comes in

And the seas will split
And the ship will hit
And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking
Then the tide will sound
And the wind will pound
And the morning will be breaking

Oh, the fishes will laugh
As they swim out of the path
And the seagulls they'll be smiling
And the rocks on the sand
Will proudly stand
The hour that the ship comes in

And the words that are used
For to get the ship confused
Will not be understood as they're spoken
For the chains of the sea
Will have busted in the night
And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean

A song will lift
As the mainsail shifts
And the boat drifts on to the shoreline
And the sun will respect
Every face on the deck
The hour that the ship comes in

Then the sands will roll
Out a carpet of gold
For your weary toes to be a-touchin'
And the ship's wise men
Will remind you once again
That the whole wide world is watchin'
🎵🎶🎵🎶
Oh, the foes will rise
With the sleep still in their eyes
And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'
But they'll pinch themselves and squeal
And know that it's for real
The hour when the ship comes in

Then they'll raise their hands
Sayin' we'll meet all your demands
But we'll shout from the bow your days are numbered
And like Pharaoh's tribe
They'll be drownded in the tide
And like Goliath, they'll be conquered



Bruno Lizama Guzman

Oh the time will come up
Oh, el momento llegará
When the winds will stop
en el que los vientos se detendrán
And the breeze will cease to be breathin’
y en el que la brisa dejará de respirar.
Like the stillness in the wind
Como la calma en el viento,
’Fore the hurricane begins
antes de que el huracán comience,
The hour when the ship comes in
será la hora en la que el barco llegue.

Oh the seas will split and the ship will hit
El mar se dividirá, el barco chocará
And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking
las arenas del litoral se estremecerán,
Then the tide will sound
luego la marea retumbará
And the wind will pound
y las olas golpearán,
And the morning will be breaking
y la mañana se quebrará.

Oh the fishes will laugh
Los peces reirán
As they swim out of the path
mientras nadan fuera de la senda,
And the seagulls they’ll be smiling
las gaviotas estarán sonriendo.
And the rocks on the sand
Y las piedras sobre la arena
Will proudly stand
se erguirán orgullosas.
The hour that the ship comes in
Es la hora de que el barco llegue.

And the words that are used
Y las palabras que se usen
For to get the ship confused
para confundir al barco
Will not be understood as they’re spoken
no serán comprendidas cuando se digan,
For the chains of the sea
pues las cadenas del mar
Will have busted in the night
habrán cedido en la noche
And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean
y habrán sido enterradas en el fondo del océano.

A song will lift
Se elevará una canción
As the mainsail shifts
mientras se enmiende la vela,
And the boat drifts on to the shoreline
el barco es arrastrado hasta la orilla.
And the sun will respect
Y el sol respetará
Every face on the deck
cada uno de los rostros en cubierta.
The hour that the ship comes in
Es la hora de que el barco llegue.

Then the sands will roll
Luego las arenas explotarán
Out a carpet of gold
una alfombra dorada
For your weary toes to be a-touchin’
para que nuestros cansados pies puedan pisarla.
And the ship’s wise men
Y los hombres sabios del barco
Will remind you once again
te recordarán una vez más
That the whole wide world is watchin’
que el mundo entero está observando.

Oh the foes will rise
Se levantarán los enemigos
With the sleep still in their eyes
con el sueño aún en sus ojos
And they’ll jerk from their beds and think they’re dreamin’
y saltarán de sus camas pensando que están soñando,
But they’ll pinch themselves and squeal
pero luego se pellizcarán y chillarán,
And know that it’s for real
y sabrán que es real.
The hour when the ship comes in
Es la hora de que el barco llegue.

Then they’ll raise their hands
Entonces elevarán las manos
Sayin’ we’ll meet all your demands
diciendo que aceptan sus exigencias,
But we’ll shout from the bow your days are numbered
pero desde la proa nosotros gritaremos que sus días están contados.
And like Pharoah’s tribe
Y, como el ejército del Faraón,
They’ll be drownded in the tide
se ahogarán en la marea;
And like Goliath, they’ll be conquered
y como Goliat, serán derrotados.



Michael Cannon

When he wrote 'When the ship comes in', he was a folk star with a huge audience, and a golden shore was beneath his feet:

"and the sands will roll out a carpet of gold, for your weary toes to be a touching,
and the ships wise men will remind you once again, that the whole wide world is watching"

At the time I thought this was about a young Jewish man, mocking old enemies at his moment of triumph.

Some years later, I heard he wrote the song one morning in a blaze of anger, after the hotel manager refused to allow him to share a room with Joan Baez.

No wonder the song is so optimistic. He knew that a short journey to another hotel, would bring a better result.

. I love it. I'll be the
Dylan fan looking for meaning in one of his songs!
Now that's funny! Hokey, sure, Sad? Bit its what ive always done. How can you not delve into it. To get the meaning or meanings in his stuff is like self evident.
not sure how to put it.
music = contemplate .."what was that" ..."does he mean" ..".how's that relate to..." and evem of i thought i knew , he'd lilely say it means what ever you understand it as.
you know.
his meaning , my meaning, the meaning it has for my life.
one of the reasons I feel he's so genius.
baahaahaaha the linknbelow, if you havent seen the show check it oit.
its special to me because the gig is at highes stadium in my homeyown of Fory Collins,CO
i guess they practiced aand got their shit togetjer to go on the Rolling Thunder tour.
a big deal since he was laying low for so long.
theres legends of tapes of practices at local elks club like places.
the town was small then l. Colorado State Unibersity is there. the stadium eas oit along the foot hills outside of town. High school buddy got bit by a rattle snake right there.
Anyway. i was maybe 9-10 y.o.
I remember my uncles went , and they being so psyched.
another fact..the Rolling Stones started their 1969 tour in that stadium. i mention it because, well that tour fodnt end so well.
i ramble...
its all the new stuff and versions all the folks.
Dylan looks as if he just crossed the desert and Joan Baez looks like a central american freedom fighter. red head band to gether they sing, "..i pity the poor immigramt...."
so choice.
enjoy
ill get right on
Tombstone Blues.

fans! check out Jay Farrar.
his words and music speak for us now and over the past couple decades.

I grew up listening to Bob's music , lyrics , paid attention to what event he would play at and so admired what he stood for.
I am 68 yrs old and I am revisiting it all. It's again Inspiring , nostalgic and a bit sad. But I believe the day we've waited for will soon dawn. He gave us so much to think about. I feel such gratitude for this man.
He's only Human . A Human that used his humble mystical gift to inspire the World .

Major Tom

A lot of Dylan songs can bring tears to your eyes. But with this one, these are tears of hope and joy

Ken Bellchambers

Almost all of his songs bring tears to my eyes. Corina, Dark Eyes, Girl From the North Country...........and so many more.

Ken Bellchambers

@Oddity I am not saying it is bad, I am saying it moves me deeply. I am waiting expectantly for that ship to come in.

big bictors

I love the word " tears " thank you, love all, big

Ken Bellchambers

@The Metaphysical Midwife You're right. I misread his joke first time. Sure wish that ship would come soon.

RaxOldies

@Ken Bellchambers I think it better come soon !! Funny because when this song was written it was to vanquish a different foe than the ones we are dealing with now....I remember because I was right in the thick of things back then. Hope we find some peace soon....all around.

I've been friends with this song since I first heard it. It hit me like a bolt of lightning. Music can shape lives.

Andrew Parry

I love it's your friend

Ken Bellchambers

I was blessed to hear this song when it first was published, I was beginning my magical mystery tour. It still electrifies me. Listen to 'Dark Eyes' it is sooooo good!
