Spanky & Our Gang - Brother Can You Spare a Dime - translation of the lyrics into Russian




Brother Can You Spare a Dime
Братан, не найдется ли монетки?
Brother, Can You Spare A Dime?
Братан, не найдется ли монетки?
Gorney, Harburg
Горни, Харбург
They used to tell me
Мне все твердили,
I was building a dream.
Что я строю мечту.
And so I followed the mob
И я шла за толпой,
When there was earth to plow
Когда нужно было пахать землю
Or guns to bear
Или оружие носить,
I was always there
Я всегда была там,
Right on the job.
Прямо на месте.
They used to tell me
Мне все твердили,
I was building a dream
Что я строю мечту,
With peace and glory ahead.
С миром и славой впереди.
Why should I be standing in line
Почему же я стою в очереди,
Just waiting for bread?
Просто ожидая хлеба?
Once I built a railroad
Когда-то я строила железную дорогу,
I made it run
Я заставила ее бежать,
Made it race against time.
Состязаться со временем.
Once I built a railroad
Когда-то я строила железную дорогу,
Now it's done
Теперь все сделано.
Brother, can you spare a dime?
Братан, не найдется ли монетки?
Once I built a tower up to the sun
Когда-то я строила башню до солнца,
Brick and rivet and lime.
Из кирпича, заклепок и извести.
Once I built a tower,
Когда-то я строила башню,
Now it's done.
Теперь все сделано.
Brother, can you spare a dime?
Братан, не найдется ли монетки?
Once in khaki suits
Когда-то в форме цвета хаки
Gee we looked swell
Ах, как мы шикарно выглядели,
Full of that yankee doodle dee dum.
Полные этого янки дудл ди дам.
Half a million boots went sloggin' through hell
Полмиллиона сапог шли, увязая в аду,
And I was the kid with the drum!
А я была девчонкой с барабаном!
Say don't you remember?
Скажи, разве ты не помнишь?
They called me Al.
Меня звали Эл.
It was Al all the time.
Всегда Эл.
Why don't you remember?
Почему ты не помнишь?
I'm your pal.
Я твой друг.
Say buddy, can you spare a dime?
Дружок, не найдется ли монетки?
Once in khaki suits,
Когда-то в форме цвета хаки,
Ah, gee we looked swell
Ах, как мы шикарно выглядели,
Full of that yankee doodle dee dum!
Полные этого янки дудл ди дам.
Half a million boots went sloggin' through hell
Полмиллиона сапог шли, увязая в аду,
And I was the kid with the drum!
А я была девчонкой с барабаном!
Oh, say don't you remember?
О, скажи, разве ты не помнишь?
They called me Al.
Меня звали Эл.
It was Al all the time.
Всегда Эл.
Say, don't you remember?
Скажи, разве ты не помнишь?
I'm your pal.
Я твой друг.
Buddy, can you spare a dime?
Дружок, не найдется ли монетки?
