Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - A Miner's Life
A
miner's
life
is
like
a
sailor
on
board
a
ship
to
cross
the
waves
Жизнь
шахтера-это
как
моряк
на
борту
корабля,
который
плывет
по
волнам.
Every
day
his
life's
in
danger,
many
ventures
being
brave
Каждый
день
его
жизнь
в
опасности,
многие
отваживаются
на
смелые
поступки.
Watch
the
rocks,
they're
falling
daily,
careless
miners
always
fail
Смотри
на
камни,
они
падают
каждый
день,
беспечные
шахтеры
всегда
терпят
неудачу.
Keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
and
your
eye
upon
the
scale
Держи
руку
на
своей
зарплате
и
следи
за
весами.
Union
miners,
stand
together
Профсоюз
шахтеров,
держитесь
вместе!
Do
not
heed
the
Coal
Board's
tales
Не
обращайте
внимания
на
рассказы
угольного
Совета.
Keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
Держи
руку
на
своей
зарплате.
And
your
eye
upon
the
scale
И
твой
взгляд
на
весах.
You've
been
docked
and
docked
again,
boys,
you've
been
loading
three
to
one
Вы
были
в
доке
и
снова
в
доке,
парни,
вы
загружали
три
к
одному.
What's
the
use
in
all
your
working
when
your
mining
days
are
done?
Какой
смысл
в
твоей
работе,
когда
твои
шахтерские
дни
закончились?
Worn
out
shoes
and
worn
out
miners,
blackened
lungs
and
faces
pale
Изношенные
ботинки
и
изношенные
шахтеры,
почерневшие
легкие
и
бледные
лица.
Oh
keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
and
your
eye
upon
the
scale
О
держи
руку
на
своей
зарплате
и
следи
за
весами
Union
miners,
stand
together
Профсоюз
шахтеров,
держитесь
вместе!
Do
not
heed
the
Coal
Board's
tales
Не
обращайте
внимания
на
рассказы
угольного
Совета.
Keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
Держи
руку
на
своей
зарплате.
And
your
eye
upon
the
scale
И
твой
взгляд
на
весах.
In
conclusion,
bear
in
memory,
keep
this
watchword
in
your
mind
В
заключение
запомните,
запомните
этот
лозунг.
Worker's
strength
cannot
be
broken
when
in
unions
we
combine
Сила
рабочих
не
может
быть
сломлена,
когда
мы
объединяемся
в
профсоюзы.
Stand
up
tall
and
stand
together,
victory
for
you
prevails
Встаньте
во
весь
рост
и
держитесь
вместе,
победа
за
вами
восторжествует.
Oh
keep
your
hands
upon
your
wages
and
your
eye
upon
the
scale
О
держи
руки
на
своей
зарплате
и
следи
за
весами
Union
miners,
stand
together
Профсоюз
шахтеров,
держитесь
вместе!

на
своей
зарплате.
And
your
eye
upon
the
scale
И
твой
взгляд
на
весах.
