Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - A Letter from Home




A Letter from Home
Письмо из дома
A cowpoke rode in one hot dusty day
В жаркий день, весь в пыли, ковбой подъехал,
To a store down in old San Antone
К лавке в старом Сан-Антоне,
He stood at the window and I heard him say
Он стоял у окна, и я слышал, как он сказал,
Do I have a letter from home
Есть ли у меня письмо из дома?
The postmaster looked through the mail that had come
Почтмейстер просмотрел всю пришедшую почту,
Then smilingly shook his grey head
Затем, улыбаясь, покачал седой головой,
The cowboke looked sadly a moment at him
Ковбой грустно посмотрел на него,
And these are the words that he said
И вот что он сказал:
No letter from home, no letter from home
Нет письма из дома, нет письма из дома,
There's never a letter from home
Никогда нет письма из дома,
(No message from mother and none of the other)
(Ни весточки от матери, ни от кого другого)
There's never a letter from home
Никогда нет письма из дома.
That night he was shot on the wrong side of town
В ту ночь его подстрелили не в том районе города,
No more of those plains will he roam
Больше не будет он бродить по этим равнинам,
I reached for my Bible and gave it to him
Я взял свою Библию и дал ему,
Said, "Son, here's your letter from home"
Сказал: "Сынок, вот твоё письмо из дома".
"If only I had just a little more time
"Если бы у меня было ещё немного времени,
To read it", the young cowpoke said
Чтобы прочитать его", - сказал молодой ковбой,
"I can't take it with me and I must go on"
не могу взять его с собой, я должен идти дальше",
Then he died with his letter unread
Затем он умер, так и не прочитав своё письмо.
The letter from home, the letter from home
Письмо из дома, письмо из дома,
No time for the letter from home
Нет времени на письмо из дома,
(The cowboy laid dead with his letter unread)
(Ковбой лежал мертвый, так и не прочитав своё письмо)
Too late for the letter from home
Слишком поздно для письма из дома.
