Johnny Cash - A Letter from Home - translation of the lyrics into Russian

Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - A Letter from Home




A cowpoke rode in one hot dusty day
Одним жарким пыльным днем ковбой заехал
To a store down in old San Antone
В магазин в Старом Сан-Антонио.
He stood at the window and I heard him say
Он стоял у окна, и я услышал, как он сказал:
Do I have a letter from home
Есть ли у меня письмо из дома
The postmaster looked through the mail that had come
Почтмейстер просмотрел пришедшую почту.
Then smilingly shook his grey head
Потом с улыбкой покачал седой головой.
The cowboke looked sadly a moment at him
Ковбой с грустью посмотрел на него.
And these are the words that he said
И вот слова, которые он сказал:
No letter from home, no letter from home
Ни письма из дома, ни письма из дома.
There's never a letter from home
Из дома никогда нет писем.
(No message from mother and none of the other)
(Ни от матери, ни от кого другого)
There's never a letter from home
Из дома никогда нет писем.
That night he was shot on the wrong side of town
В ту ночь его застрелили на другом конце города.
No more of those plains will he roam
Он больше не будет бродить по этим равнинам.
I reached for my Bible and gave it to him
Я потянулся за Библией и отдал ее ему.
Said, "Son, here's your letter from home"
Сказал: "Сынок, вот твое письмо из дома".
"If only I had just a little more time
"Если бы только у меня было немного больше времени,
To read it", the young cowpoke said
чтобы прочитать это", - сказал молодой ковбой.
"I can't take it with me and I must go on"
не могу взять его с собой, и я должен идти".
Then he died with his letter unread
А потом он умер с непрочитанным письмом.
The letter from home, the letter from home
Письмо из дома, письмо из дома
No time for the letter from home
Нет времени на письмо из дома.
(The cowboy laid dead with his letter unread)
(Ковбой лежит мертвый с непрочитанным письмом)
Too late for the letter from home
Слишком поздно для письма из дома.
