Lyrics and translation John Denver - The Box - Remastered




The Box - Remastered
Шкатулка - Ремастированная версия
Once upon a time in the land of hushabye
Давным-давно, в стране дремоты,
In the woundrous days of yore
В чудесные дни былых времён,
They came upon this kind of box
Люди нашли шкатулку странную,
All bound with chains and locked with locks
Цепями связанную, замками запертую,
And labelled "kindly do not Touch, it's WAR"
И надпись на ней: «Не трогать! ВОЙНА!»
Decree was issued round about
Указ издали по всей округе,
All with a flourish and a shout
С фанфарами и громким звуком,
And gayley colored mascots trippling lightly on the fore
И яркие талисманы скакали впереди,
"Do not tamper with this deadly box"
«Не трогайте эту смертельную шкатулку!»
"Don"t break the chains or pick the locks"
«Не рвите цепи и замки не ломайте!»
"Please don't ever play about with war"
«С войной, пожалуйста, не играйте!»
Well the children understood
Дети всё поняли,
Children happen to be good
Дети ведь бывают хороши,
And they were just as around the time of yore
И были такими же, как в былые времена,
They didn't try to break the chains or pick the locks
Они не пытались рвать цепи или взламывать замки,
They didn't play about with war
Они не играли с войной.
Mommies didn't either
Мамы тоже не играли,
Sisters aunts grannies neither
Сёстры, тёти, бабушки никто,
They were quiet and sweet and pretty in those wondrous days of yore
Они были тихи, милы и красивы в те чудесные дни,
Fairley much the same as now
Почти как сейчас,
Not the ones to blame somehow
И не их вина, дорогая,
For opning up that deadly box of war.
Что открыли ту смертельную шкатулку войны.
But someone did,
Но кто-то открыл,
Someone battered in the lid
Кто-то сорвал крышку,
And spilled the insides out across the floor
И содержимое высыпалось на пол.
A Kind of bouncy bumpy ball, filled with guns and flags and all the tears and
Словно прыгучий мяч, полный оружия, флагов, слёз и
Horror and death, that goes with war.
Ужаса и смерти, что приходят с войной.
It bounced right out and went crashing all about
Он выпрыгнул и покатился, круша всё вокруг,
And bumping into everything in store
И врезался во всё, что попадалось на пути.
And what was sad and most unfair
И что печально и несправедливо,
Is that it didn't really seem to care much who it bumped
Ему было всё равно, кого он задевает,
Or why, or what, or for.
Зачем, почему и для чего.
It bumped the children mainly
Он задевал в основном детей,
And I'll tell you this quite plainly
И скажу тебе прямо,
It bumps them evry day and more, and more
Он задевает их каждый день, всё больше и больше,
And leaves them dead and burned and dying
И оставляет их мёртвыми, сожжёнными, умирающими,
Thousands of them sick and crying
Тысячи больных и плачущих,
Cos when it bumps
Потому что, когда он ударяет,
Its really very sore
Это очень больно.
Now theres a way to stop the ball
Есть способ остановить этот мяч,
It isn't difficult at all
Это совсем не сложно,
All it takes is wisdom
Нужна лишь мудрость,
And I'm absolutley sure
И я абсолютно уверен,
We can get the ball back in the box
Мы можем вернуть мяч обратно в шкатулку,
And bind the chains
Надеть цепи,
And lock the locks
Запереть замки.
No one seems to want to save the children any more
Кажется, никто больше не хочет спасать детей.
Well thats the way it all appears
Вот так всё и выглядит,
That balls been bouncing round for years and years
Этот мяч скачет уже много лет,
In spite of all the wisdom whiz since those wondrous days of yore
Несмотря на всю мудрость мудрецов с тех чудесных дней,
When they came upon this kind of box
Когда люди нашли эту странную шкатулку,
All bound with chains and locked with locks
Цепями связанную, замками запертую,
And labelled "Kindly do not touch"
С надписью: «Не трогать!»
"ITS WAR"
«ВОЙНА!»
