Lyrics and translation Paul Robeson - Ol' Man River (Live At the Dury Lane Theatre)




Ol' Man River (Live At the Dury Lane Theatre)
Старик река (Live At the Dury Lane Theatre)
There's an old man called the Mississippi
Есть старик по имени Миссисипи,
That's the old man I don't like to be!
Вот таким стариком я быть не хочу!
What does he care if the world's got troubles?
Ему ли думать о бедах мира?
What does he care if the land ain't free?
Ему ли думать о том, что земля не свободна?
Old man river,
Старик река,
That old man river
Этот старый, старый река
He must know sumpin'
Он, наверно, знает что-то,
But don't say nuthin',
Но молчит,
He just keeps rollin'
Он просто катится,
He keeps on rollin' along.
Катится себе дальше.
He don't plant taters,
Он не сажает картошку,
He don't plant cotton,
Он не сажает хлопок,
And them that plants 'em Is soon forgotten,
И тех, кто их сажает, скоро забудут,
But old man river,
Но старик река,
He just keeps rollin' along.
Он просто катится дальше.
You and me, we sweat and strain,
Мы с тобой трудимся до седьмого пота,
Body all achin' and racked with pain,
Всё тело ломит и разрывается от боли,
Tote that barge! And lift that bale!
Тащи эту баржу! Поднимай эту кипу!
Get a little drunk
Напьешься немного,
And you lands in jail
И окажешься в тюрьме.
But I keeps laughin'
Но я продолжаю смеяться,
Instead of cryin'
Вместо того чтобы плакать,
I must keep fightin'
Я должен продолжать бороться,
Until I'm dyin'
Пока не умру,
And old man river,
А старик река,
He just keeps rollin' along
Он просто катится дальше.
