Don Gibson - On the Banks of the Old Ponchartrain - translation of the lyrics into Russian




On the Banks of the Old Ponchartrain
На берегах старого Поншартрейна
I traveled from Texas to old Louisanne
Я путешествовал из Техаса в старую Луизиану,
Through valleys, o'er mountains and plains
Через долины, горы и равнины.
Both footsore and weary I rested awhile
Уставший и изможденный, я немного отдохнул
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
На берегах старого Поншартрейна.
The fairest young maiden that I ever saw
Самая прекрасная девушка, которую я когда-либо видел,
Passed by as it started to rain
Прошла мимо, как раз начался дождь.
We both found a shelter beneath the same tree
Мы оба нашли укрытие под одним деревом
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
На берегах старого Поншартрейна.
We hid from the shower an hour or so
Мы прятались от ливня около часа,
She asked me how long I'd remain
Она спросила, как долго я останусь.
I told her that I'd spend the rest of my days
Я сказал ей, что проведу остаток своих дней
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
На берегах старого Поншартрейна.
I just couldn't tell her that I ran away
Я просто не мог сказать ей, что сбежал
From jail on a West Texas plain
Из тюрьмы на западных равнинах Техаса.
I prayed in my heart I would never be found
Я молился в своем сердце, чтобы меня никогда не нашли
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
На берегах старого Поншартрейна.
Then one day a man put his hand on my arm
Потом однажды мужчина положил руку мне на плечо
And said I must go west again
И сказал, что я должен вернуться на запад.
I left her alone without saying goodbye
Я оставил ее одну, не попрощавшись,
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
На берегах старого Поншартрейна.
Tonight as I sit here alone in my cell
Сегодня вечером, когда я сижу один в своей камере,
I know that she's waiting in vain
Я знаю, что она ждет напрасно.
I'm hoping and praying someday to return
Я надеюсь и молюсь, что когда-нибудь вернусь
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
На берега старого Поншартрейна.
