Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - Between the Wars (Live San Fransisco 3 June 1985)




Between the Wars (Live San Fransisco 3 June 1985)
Между войнами (концерт в Сан-Франциско, 3 июня 1985)
I was a miner
Я был шахтером,
I was a docker
Я был портовым рабочим,
I was a railway man
Я был железнодорожником
Between the wars
Между войнами.
I raised a family
Я растил семью
In times of austerity
Во времена лишений,
With sweat at the foundry
С потом на литейном заводе
Between the wars
Между войнами.
I paid the union and as times got harder
Я платил профсоюзу, и по мере того, как времена становились труднее,
I looked to the government to help the working man
Я смотрел на правительство, чтобы оно помогло рабочему человеку,
But they brought prosperity down at the armoury
Но они принесли процветание только на военный завод.
We're arming for peace my boys!
Мы вооружаемся ради мира, ребята!
Between the wars
Между войнами.
I kept the faith and I kept voting
Я хранил веру и продолжал голосовать
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
Не за железный кулак, а за руку помощи,
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
Ибо их страна это страна с оградой вокруг,
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
А моя вера в человека,
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Их страна это страна надежды и славы,
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Моя это зеленое поле и заводской цех,
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
Их небо темное от бомбардировщиков,
And mine is the peace we knew
А мое это мир, который мы знали
Between the wars
Между войнами.
Call up the craftsmen
Призовите ремесленников,
Bring me the draughtsmen
Приведите ко мне чертежников,
Build me a path from cradle to grave
Постройте мне путь от колыбели до могилы,
And I'll give my consent
И я дам свое согласие
To any government
Любому правительству,
That does not deny a man a living wage
Которое не отказывает человеку в прожиточном минимуме.
Go find the young men never to fight again
Найдите молодых людей, которым больше не придется сражаться,
Bring up the banners from the days gone by
Поднимите знамена ушедших дней,
Sweet moderation
Сладкая умеренность,
Heart of this nation
Сердце этой нации,
Desert us not, we are
Не покидай нас, мы
Between the wars
Между войнами.
