Harry Chapin - Flowers Are Red - Edited Version - translation of the lyrics into Russian




Flowers Are Red - Edited Version
Цветы красные - отредактированная версия
The little boy went first day of school
Маленький мальчик пошел в первый класс,
He got some crayons and started to draw
Взял мелки и начал рисовать.
He put colors all over the paper
Он раскрасил всю бумагу,
For colors was what he saw
Ведь он видел так много цветов.
And the teacher said.
И учительница сказала:
What you doin' young man
"Что ты делаешь, юный друг?"
I'm paintin' flowers he said
рисую цветы", - ответил он.
She said...
Она сказала:
It's not the time for art young man
"Сейчас не время для рисования, юный друг,"
And anyway flowers are green and red
вообще-то цветы зеленые и красные."
There's a time for everything young man
"Для всего есть свое время, юный друг,"
And a way it should be done
свой способ, как это делать."
You've got to show concern for everyone else
"Ты должен думать и о других,"
For you're not the only one
"Ведь ты здесь не один."
And she said...
И она сказала:
Flowers are red young man
"Цветы красные, юный друг,"
Green leaves are green
"Листья зеленые."
There's no need to see flowers any other way
"Нет нужды видеть цветы иначе,"
Than the way they always have been seen
"Чем так, как их всегда видели."
But the little boy said...
Но маленький мальчик сказал:
There are so many colors in the rainbow
радуге так много цветов,
So many colors in the morning sun
утреннем солнце так много цветов,
So many colors in the flower and i see every one
цветке так много цветов, и я вижу каждый из них."
Well the teacher said.
Учительница сказала:
You're sassy
"Ты дерзишь."
There's ways that things should be
"Есть правила, как все должно быть,"
And you'll paint flowers the way they are
ты будешь рисовать цветы так, как они есть."
So repeat after me...
"Повторяй за мной..."
And she said...
И она сказала:
Flowers are red young man
"Цветы красные, юный друг,"
Green leaves are green
"Листья зеленые."
There's no need to see flowers any other way
"Нет нужды видеть цветы иначе,"
Than the way they always have been seen
"Чем так, как их всегда видели."
But the little boy said...
Но маленький мальчик сказал:
There are so many colors in the rainbow
радуге так много цветов,
So many colors in the morning sun
утреннем солнце так много цветов,
So many colors in the flower and i see every one
цветке так много цветов, и я вижу каждый из них."
The teacher put him in a corner
Учительница поставила его в угол.
She said.
Она сказала:
It's for your own good.
"Это для твоего же блага."
And you won't come out 'til you get it right
ты не выйдешь, пока не поймешь"
And all responding like you should
не будешь отвечать как положено."
Well finally he got lonely
Наконец, ему стало одиноко,
Frightened thoughts filled his head
Страшные мысли наполнили его голову,
And he went up to the teacher
И он подошел к учительнице
And this is what he said.
И сказал ей вот что.
And he said
И он сказал:
Flowers are red, green leaves are green
"Цветы красные, листья зеленые,"
There's no need to see flowers any other way
"Нет нужды видеть цветы иначе,"
Than the way they always have been seen
"Чем так, как их всегда видели."
Time went by like it always does
Время шло, как всегда,
And they moved to another town
И они переехали в другой город.
And the little boy went to another school
И маленький мальчик пошел в другую школу,
And this is what he found
И вот что он обнаружил.
The teacher there was smilin'
Учительница там улыбалась.
She said...
Она сказала:
Painting should be fun
"Рисовать должно быть весело!"
And there are so many colors in a flower
цветке так много цветов,"
So let's use every one
"Так давайте использовать каждый из них."
But that little boy painted flowers
Но этот маленький мальчик рисовал цветы
In neat rows of green and red
Аккуратными рядами зеленых и красных.
And when the teacher asked him why
И когда учительница спросила его, почему,
This is what he said.
Вот что он сказал.
And he said
И он сказал:
Flowers are red, green leaves are green
"Цветы красные, листья зеленые,"
There's no need to see flowers any other way
"Нет нужды видеть цветы иначе,"
Than the way they always have been seen.
"Чем так, как их всегда видели."
