Pete Seeger - Banks Are Made of Marble

Lyrics and translation Pete Seeger - Banks Are Made of Marble




I′ve traveled 'round this country
Я объездил всю эту страну.
From shore to shining shore
От берега к сияющему берегу.
It really made me wonder-
Это действительно заставило меня задуматься...
The things I heard and saw!
То, что я слышал и видел!
I saw the weary farmer
Я увидел усталого фермера.
A-plowing sod and loam
А-вспашка дерна и суглинка
I heard the auction hammer
Я слышал стук молотка аукциона.
Just a-knocking down his home
Просто снесли его дом.
But the banks are made of marble
Но берега сделаны из мрамора.
With a guard at every door
С охраной у каждой двери.
And the vaults are stuffed with silver
И склепы набиты серебром.
That the farmer sweated for
Фермер потел ради этого.
I′ve seen the seamen standing
Я видел стоявших моряков.
Idly by the shore
Бездельничая на берегу
And I've heard their bosses saying
И я слышал, как их боссы говорили:
"Got no work for you no more"
"У меня больше нет для тебя работы",
But the banks are made of marble
но банки сделаны из мрамора.
With a guard at every door
С охраной у каждой двери.
And the vaults are stuffed with silver
И склепы набиты серебром.
That the seamen sweated for
Ради этого потели моряки.
I've seen the weary miner
Я видел усталого Шахтера.
Scrubbing coal dust from his back
Счищая угольную пыль со спины.
And I′ve heard his children crying
И я слышал, как плачут его дети.
Got no coal to heat the shack
Нет угля, чтобы отапливать хижину.
But the banks are made of marble
Но берега сделаны из мрамора.
With a guard at every door
С охраной у каждой двери.
And the vaults are stuffed with silver
И склепы набиты серебром.
That the miner sweated for
Ради этого Старатель потел.
I′ve seen my brothers working
Я видел, как работают мои братья.
Throughout this mighty land
По всей этой могучей земле.
I've prayed we′d get together
Я молился, чтобы мы были вместе.
And together make a stand
И вместе выстоим.
Then we might own those banks of marble
Тогда мы могли бы владеть этими мраморными берегами.
With a guard at every door
С охраной у каждой двери.
And we would share those vaults of silver
И мы разделим эти серебряные склепы.
That we have sweated for
Ради этого мы потели.
