Neil Young knows Irene

Like A Hurricane” by Neil Young

Once I thought I saw you/in a crowded

hazy bar/Dancing on the light/from star to star//Far across the moonbeam/I know that’s who you are/I saw your brown eyes/turning once to fire.

“This is a little more serious than many of them,” nagkanayon si Clayton Gaskill, usa ka DJ/radio announcer sa WOVV-FM sa Ocracoke, usa sa mga nigpis nga isla sa North Carolina nga posibling maagian ni Irene nga usa ka category 4 hurricane nga gituohang mudagsa karong adlawa sa America.

Ferryboat ra maoy pamaagi sa pagtabuk gikan sa isla. Ugma kuno ang katapusang biyahi sa di pa moabot si Irene.

Ambot kon duna pay kopya si Gaskill sa “Like a Hurricane” ni Neil Young ug iya ba kining gipatukar samtang ga-awhag siya sa mga taga isla pagbakwit.

You are like a hurricane/There’s calm in your eye/And I’m gettin’ blown away/To somewhere safer where the feeling stays/I want to love you but/I’m getting blown away.

Matud pa ni NASA Astronaut Mike Fossum nga tua nagtambo sa usa ka international space station nga si Irene “looks terrifying from above.”

“There’s kind of a dome shape to the whole thing, with the eye fully formed,” nagkanayon si Fossum. “Yesterday you could see the eye wall and down into the eye itself. You know that is a powerful storm, and those are never good news when they’re headed your way. So our prayers and thoughts are with the people in its path.”

I am just a dreamer/but you are just a dream/You could have been/anyone to me/Before that moment/you touched my lips/That perfect feeling/when time just slips/Away between us/on our foggy trip.

Ang unang tugdunan ni Irene mao ang mga east coast cities gikan sa North Carolina paingon sa New England. Daku kunog kadaut nga mahimo si Irene tugod kay daghan na ang nanimuyo ning maong mga lugar ug dayag na lang nga daku ang danyos. Pero nakuyawan usab sila nga agian niani ang Washington, New York ug Boston.

May nang ingon usab nga lagmit magda kinig dakong kadaut sa New York kon lunopan niani ang mga subways didto.

May usa ka eksperto nga mitawag ning maong kusog nga hangin og “nightmare.” Matud pa usab sa laing eksperto nga MIT meteorology professor Kerry Emanuel—It’s not going to be a Katrina, but it’s serious. People have to take it seriously.” Katrina ang unos nga mikusokuso sa New Orleans niadtong 2005.

Unos, bagyo, cyclone, typhone, hurricane—mga bangis nga haging angay daganan ug likayan bisan asa ka pa mang dapita sa kalibutan nahilun. Apan daw malamat ug madani kas ilang lihuk. Nindut silang sud-ongon basta wa kay labot ug layo ra ang imong nahimutangan. Daw mga diyosa sila sa kadaut. O, Diyos, kon gusto ka.

Tungod tingali kay lalake man ang una sa pagbalak ug paghimog awit, kasagarang gamiton nga imahen, allegory o allusion ang kusog nga hangin sa kagubot nga mahitabo sa kinabuhi sa usa ka lalake kon masugatan niya ang usa ka madanihung babaye.
