The Night Watch - Live (Toronto Massey Hall: June 24th, 1974)
Ночной дозор - запись с концерта (Торонто, Massey Hall: 24 июня, 1974)
Shine,
shine,
the
light
of
good
works
shine
Сияй,
сияй,
свет
добрых
дел
сияй,
The
watch
before
the
city
gates
depicted
in
their
prime
Дозор
у
городских
ворот,
запечатлённый
в
свой
лучший
час.
The
golden
light
all
grimy
now
Золотой
свет
теперь
тускнеет,
300
years
have
passed
300
лет
прошло
с
тех
пор,
The
worthy
captain
and
his
squad
of
troopers
standing
fast
Но
бравый
капитан
и
его
отряд
стрелков
всё
так
же
крепки.
The
artist
knew
their
faces
well
Художник
знал
их
лица,
Husbands
of
his
lady
friends
Мужей
своих
подруг,
His
creditors
and
councillors
Кредиторов
и
советников,
In
armour
bright,
the
merchant
men
В
блестящих
доспехах,
торговцев
знатных.
Official
moments
of
the
guild
Официальные
лица
гильдии,
In
poses
keen
from
bygone
days
В
важных
позах
минувших
дней,
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,
фляга
вина,
Turn
those
faces
all
to
me
Поверни
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
появляются
по
одному,
Defenders
of
that
way
of
life
Защитники
того
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,
Our
country
racked
with
Spanish
wars
Наша
страна
была
измучена
войнами
с
Испанией,
Now
comes
a
chance
to
find
ourselves
Теперь
появился
шанс
обрести
себя,
Quiet
reigns
behind
our
doors
За
нашими
дверьми
царит
тишина.
Think
about
posterity
again
Задумайтесь
о
потомках
вновь.
So
the
pride
of
little
men
И
гордость
маленьких
людей,
The
burghers
good
and
true
Добрых
и
честных
бюргеров,
Still
living
through
the
painter's
hands
Всё
ещё
жива
благодаря
рукам
художника,
Request
you
all
to
understand
Просит
вас
всех
понять.
