Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - Bird On a Wire (Live With Orchestra)




Bird On a Wire (Live With Orchestra)
Птица на проводе (концертная запись с оркестром)
Like a bird on a wire
Словно птица на проводе,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
Словно пьяница в полночном хоре,
I have tried in my way to be free
Я пытался по-своему быть свободным.
Like a fish on a hook
Словно рыба на крючке,
Like a knight in a some old fashioned book
Словно рыцарь в старинной книге,
I have saved all my ribbons for thee
Я хранил все свои награды для тебя.
And if I have been unkind
И если я был недобр,
I just hope you will just let it go by
Я просто надеюсь, ты простишь меня.
And if I, if I have been untrue
И если я, если я был неверен,
I just hope you know it was never to you
Я просто надеюсь, ты знаешь, что это было не по отношению к тебе.
Like a baby stillborn
Словно мертворожденный младенец,
Like a beast with his horn
Словно зверь со своим рогом,
I have torn everyone
Я ранил всех,
Who reached out to me
Кто тянулся ко мне.
But I swear by this song
Но клянусь этой песней
And by all that I have done wrong
И всем, что я сделал не так,
I'll make it all up to thee
Я все тебе возмещу.
I saw a young man
Я видел молодого человека,
Leaning on his wooden crutch
Опирающегося на деревянный костыль,
And he called out to me
И он крикнул мне:
"Don't ask for so much"
"Не проси слишком многого".
And a young woman
И молодая женщина,
Leaning on her darkened door
Опирающаяся на свою темную дверь,
And she cried out to me
И она кричала мне:
"Hey, why not ask for more"
"Эй, почему бы не попросить большего?"
Like a bird on a wire
Словно птица на проводе,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
Словно пьяница в полночном хоре,
I have tried in my way to be free
Я пытался по-своему быть свободным.
