The Rape of Lucretia, Op. 37: "The Prosperity of the Etruscans"
Лукреция, Op. 37: "Процветание этрусков"
The prosperity of the Etruscans was due to the richness of their
Процветание этрусков зиждилось на богатстве их
Native soil, the virility of their men
Родной земли, доблести их мужей
And the fertility of their women
И плодородии их женщин
When the Etruscan princes conquered Rome, they
Когда этрусские князья покорили Рим, они
Founded the imperial city, building it in stone
Заложили имперский город, воздвигнув его из камня
And the Etruscan builders watched the proud
И этрусские зодчие взирали на гордых
Romans swept as they toiled in mountain quarry
Римлян, согбенных в горных каменоломнях
Then the victors embellished their palaces with delicate
Затем победители украсили дворцы изысканным
Silver and tapestries, which they taught the Roman
Серебром и гобеленами, научив римских
Nobility to weave in the shadows of an Etruscan cellar
Патрициев ткать в подземельях этрусков
Through all their art there runs this paradox
Во всем их искусстве живет парадокс:
Passion for creation and lust to kill
Страсть к созиданию и жажда убийства
Behind the swan's neck they paint a fox
За лебединой шеей рисуют лису
And on their tombs a wooden phalanx stood
А на гробницах - деревянный фаланг стоял
Then Tarquinius Superbus ruled in Rome, relentless as a
Тогда Тарквиний Гордый правил Римом, неумолим как
Torrid sun, and the whole city- Now the masters become the
Знойное солнце, и весь город- Теперь господа стали
Etruscans' servants, and all our cities are bizarre to them
Слугами этрусков, и города наши им чужды
Long live the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Long live the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Long live the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Then Rome has sons and Jews are brothers
Тогда у Рима сыны, и иудеи - братья
With our Inquisition and Christian King
С инквизицией нашей и королем-христианином
Long to the Romans!
Да славятся римляне!
Long to the Romans!
Да славятся римляне!
Long to the Romans!
Да славятся римляне!
Before it's never been safe to speak one's mind in
Прежде в Риме не смели мысли открыто
Rome, but now every whore has the emperor's ear
Высказать, но ныне каждая блудница вхожа к цезарю
Long to the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Long to the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Long to the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Ah!
Ах!
One day Rome will have us praying to our officials
Придёт день - Рим заставит нас молиться сановникам
Or worse, without us they'll still be in command
Или хуже - без нас они будут править
Long to the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Ah!
Ах!
While the she-wolf sleeps at night, but each Roman man is mad
Пока волчица спит ночью, но римлянин безумен
And when the she-wolf bays at night, they fear from Jove almighty
А когда волчица воет - страшатся гнева Юпитера
Long to the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Long to the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Long to the Etruscans!
Да славятся этруски!
Ah!
Ах!
Then Tarquinius Superbus ruled in Rome, relentless as a torrid sun
Тогда Тарквиний Гордый правил Римом, неумолим как знойное солнце
And the whole city sulked in discontent, hating the foreign
И весь город роптал, ненавидя чужеземных
Aristocrats with their orgies and auguries and effete philosophies
Аристократов с оргиями, гаданиями и изнеженной мудростью
There was whispering behind shuttering, and every
Шёпот звучал за ставнями, и каждый
Stone that was thrown spoke for the whole of Rome
Брошенный камень кричал от имени Рима
Oh, tyrants fall, though tyranny persists
О, тираны падут, но тирания жива
Though crowds disperse, the mob is never less
Толпы разойдутся - чернь неистребима
For violence is the fear within us all
Ибо насилие - страх, в нас сокрытый
And tragedy the measurement of man, and hope is brief view of God
Трагедия - мера человека, надежда - миг лика Божьего
Oh, Christ, heal our blindness which we mistake for
О, Христос, исцели слепоту, что мы зовём
Sight, and show us your day, for ours is endless night
Зрением, яви Свой день, ибо наш - ночь бесконечна
While we as towards the steppe, between its deserts, oryens
Когда мы идём через степь, меж пустынями, востоком
And the sea, we'll view this human passion and these ills
И морем, мы узрим людские страсти и муки
Through eyes which once have wept with Christ's tears
Очами, что пролили слёзы Христа
