Billy Bragg - The Clashing of Ideologies (Alternative Version) - translation of the lyrics into Russian

Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - The Clashing of Ideologies (Alternative Version)




When one voice rules the nation,
Когда один голос правит нацией,
Just because she's top of the pile,
То, что она на вершине кучи,
Doesn't mean her vision is the clearest.
Не значит, что ее зрение самое ясное.
And the voices of the people,
И голоса людей
Are falling on deaf ears,
Падают на глухие уши,
Our politicians all become careerists.
Все наши политики становятся карьеристами.
They must declare their interests,
Они должны декларировать свои интересы,
But not their company cars.
Но не свои служебные машины.
Is there more to a seat in parliament,
Есть ли что-то большее, чем место в парламенте,
Than sitting on your arse?
Чем сидеть на заднице?
And the best of all this bad bunch,
И самое лучшее во всей этой дурной компании-
Is shouting to be heard,
Это кричать, чтобы быть услышанным.
Above the sound of ideology crashing.
Над звуком крушения идеологии.
Whisper up in Whitehall,
Шепот в Уайтхолле.
Must not be spoke aloud,
Нельзя говорить вслух.
The offender faces jail or resignation.
Преступнику грозит тюрьма или отставка.
And another dose of welfare cuts
И еще одна порция льгот.
Is passed without a word,
Передается без единого слова
From those who claim to represent
От тех, кто утверждает, что представляет
The centre of this nation.
Центр этой нации.
All these men and women,
Все эти мужчины и женщины...
Elected for their high ideals.
Избран за свои высокие идеалы.
While we just pay our taxes,
В то время как мы просто платим налоги,
They pay lip service when it feels.
Они платят на словах, когда это кажется.
And the voices of the millions,
И голоса миллионов,
And the hopes of a whole lot more,
И надежды на гораздо большее.
Are lost above the sound
Мы теряемся над звуком.
Of ideology crashing.
Идеология рушится.
Are lost above the sound of ideology,
Теряются над звуками идеологии,
Above the sound of ideology,
Выше звука идеологии,
Above the sound of ideology crashing.
Выше звука крушения идеологии.
