Lyrics and translation Original Cast - If I Were a Rich Man (From "Fiddler on the Roof")




If I Were a Rich Man (From "Fiddler on the Roof")
Если бы я был богачом (из мюзикла "Скрипач на крыше")
If I were a rich man
Если бы я был богачом,
Didle - deedle - didle- digga - digga - deedle - didle - dum
Тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам.
All day long I'd
Целый день бы я
Biddy - biddy - bum
Бум-бум-бум.
If I were a wealthy man
Если бы я был богатым,
Wouldn't have to work hard
Мне бы не пришлось работать.
Didle - deedle - didle- digga - digga - deedle - didle - dum
Тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам.
If I were a biddy - biddy rich
Если бы я был сказочно богатым,
Digga - digga - deedle - didle man
Трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля человеком,
I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen
Я бы построил большой высокий дом с десятками комнат
Right in the middle of the town
Прямо в центре города.
A fine tin roof
С красивой жестяной крышей
With a real wooden floors below
И настоящими деревянными полами.
There could be one long staircase
Там будет одна длинная лестница,
Just going up
Ведущая вверх,
And one even longer coming down
И другая, еще длиннее, вниз,
And one more leading nowhere
И еще одна, ведущая в никуда,
Just for show
Просто для красоты.
I'd fill be yard with
Я бы наполнил двор
Chicks and turkies and geese and ducks
Курами, индюшками, гусями и утками,
For the town to see and hear
Чтобы весь город видел и слышал,
Squarking just as noisely as they can
Как они шумят изо всех сил,
And each loud quack and cluck and gooble and honk
И каждый громкий крик, кряканье, гоготание и гудение
Will land like a trumpet on the ear
Звучали бы, как звук трубы,
As if to say
Как бы говоря:
Hear lives a wealthy man
«Здесь живет богатый человек!»
If I were a rich man
Если бы я был богачом,
Didle - deedle - didle- digga - digga - deedle - didle - dum
Тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам.
All day long I'd
Целый день бы я
Biddy - biddy - bum
Бум-бум-бум.
If I were a wealthy man
Если бы я был богатым,
Wouldn't have to work hard
Мне бы не пришлось работать.
Didle - deedle - didle- digga - digga - deedle - didle - dum
Тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам.
If I were a biddy - biddy rich
Если бы я был сказочно богатым,
Digga - digga - deedle - didle man
Трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля человеком,
I see my wife, my Golda
Я вижу свою жену, мою Голду,
Looking like a rich man's wife
Подобно жене богача,
With a proper double chin
С приличным двойным подбородком,
Supervising meals to her hearts deleight
Наблюдающей за приготовлением еды в свое удовольствие.
I see her putting on airs
Я вижу, как она важничает
And strutting like a peacock
И ходит, как павлин.
Oh, what a happy mood she's in
О, в каком она прекрасном настроении,
Screaming at the servants day and night
Кричит на слуг дни и ночи напролет!
If I were rich I'd have the time that I lack
Если бы я был богатым, у меня было бы время,
To sit in the synagogue and pray
Чтобы сидеть в синагоге и молиться.
Maybe have a seat
Может быть, у меня было бы место
By the eastern wall
У восточной стены,
And I discuss the Holy book
И я бы обсуждал Священное Писание
With the lerned men
С учеными мужами
Seven hours every day
По семь часов в день.
This would be the sweetest thing of all
Это было бы самым сладким из всего.
If I were a rich man
Если бы я был богачом,
Didle - deedle - didle- digga - digga - deedle - didle - dum
Тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам.
All day long I'd
Целый день бы я
Biddy - biddy - bum
Бум-бум-бум.
If I were a wealthy man
Если бы я был богатым,
Wouldn't have to work hard
Мне бы не пришлось работать.
Didle - deedle - didle- digga - digga - deedle - didle - dum
Тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам, тра-ля-ля, тра-ля-ля, трам-трам-трам.
Lord who made the lion and the lamb
Господи, создавший льва и ягненка,
You degreed I should be what I am
Ты решил, что я должен быть тем, кто я есть.
Would it spoil some vast eternal plan
Разве это нарушит какой-то великий вечный план,
If I were a wealthy man?
Если бы я был богатым человеком?
