Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - There Is Power In a Union (Live at I Beam – San Francisco 3 June 1985)




There Is Power In a Union (Live at I Beam – San Francisco 3 June 1985)
В единстве сила (Live at I Beam – San Francisco 3 июня 1985)
There is power in a factory, power in the land
Есть сила на заводе, сила в земле,
Power in the hands of a worker
Сила в руках рабочего,
But it all amounts to nothing if together we don't stand
Но всё это ничто, если вместе мы не встанем,
There is power in a Union
В профсоюзе сила.
Now the lessons of the past were all learned with workers' blood
Уроки прошлого кровью рабочих усвоены,
The mistakes of the bosses we must pay for
За ошибки хозяев мы платим,
From the cities and the farmlands to trenches full of mud
От городов и полей до окопов, полных грязи,
War has always been the bosses' way, sir
Война всегда была уделом боссов.
The Union forever defending our rights
Профсоюз всегда защищает наши права,
Down with the blackleg, all workers unite
Долой штрейкбрехеров, все рабочие объединяйтесь!
With our brothers and our sisters from many far off lands
С нашими братьями и сестрами из далеких краев,
There is power in a Union
В профсоюзе сила.
Now I long for the morning that they realise
Я жду утра, когда они поймут,
Brutality and unjust laws can not defeat us
Что жестокость и несправедливые законы нас не сломят,
But who'll defend the workers who cannot organise
Но кто защитит рабочих, кто не может организоваться,
When the bosses send their lackies out to cheat us?
Когда боссы пришлют своих лакеев, чтобы обмануть нас?
Money speaks for money, the Devil for his own
Деньги говорят за деньги, дьявол за себя,
Who comes to speak for the skin and the bone
Кто заступится за плоть и кровь?
What a comfort to the widow, a light to the child
Какое утешение вдове, какой свет ребенку,
There is power in a Union
В профсоюзе сила.
The Union forever defending our rights
Профсоюз всегда защищает наши права,
Down with the blackleg, all workers unite
Долой штрейкбрехеров, все рабочие объединяйтесь!
With our brothers and our sisters together we will stand
С нашими братьями и сестрами вместе мы выстоим,
There is power in a Union.
В профсоюзе сила.
