Lyrics and translation King Crimson - The Night Watch - Live (Toronto Massey Hall: June 24th, 1974)




Shine, shine, the light of good works shine
Сияй, сияй, свет добрых дел сияет
The watch before the city gates depicted in their prime
Стража перед городскими воротами изображена в расцвете сил
The golden light all grimy now
Золотой свет теперь весь грязный
300 years have passed
Прошло 300 лет
The worthy captain and his squad of troopers standing fast
Достойный капитан и его отделение солдат, стоящие крепко
The artist knew their faces well
Художник хорошо знал их лица
Husbands of his lady friends
Мужья его подруг
His creditors and councillors
Его кредиторы и советники
In armour bright, the merchant men
В ярких доспехах, торговые люди
Official moments of the guild
Официальные моменты гильдии
In poses keen from bygone days
В позах, напоминающих о давно минувших днях
City fathers frozen there
Отцы города застыли там
Upon the canvas dark with age
На холсте, потемневшем от времени
The smell of paint, a flask of wine
Запах краски, фляжка с вином
Turn those faces all to me
Поверните все эти лица ко мне
Blunderbuss and halberd-shaft
Мушкетон и древко алебарды
And Dutch respectability
И голландская респектабельность
They make their entrance, one by one
Они входят один за другим
Defenders of that way of life
Защитники такого образа жизни
Redbrick home, the bourgeoisie
Дом из красного кирпича, буржуазия
Guitar lessons for the wife
Уроки игры на гитаре для жены
So many years we suffered here
Столько лет мы страдали здесь
Our country racked with Spanish wars
Наша страна страдала от испанских войн
Now comes a chance to find ourselves
Теперь у нас есть шанс найти самих себя
Quiet reigns behind our doors
За нашими дверями царит тишина
Think about posterity again
Подумайте еще раз о потомстве
So the pride of little men
Так что гордость маленьких человечков
The burghers good and true
Бюргеры добрые и верные
Still living through the painter's hands
Все еще живущий в руках художника
Request you all to understand
Прошу вас всех понять
