The Folk Singer - Tommy Roe translation in Russian

The Folk Singer

He used to sing his songs to his Sara Jane
The folk singer
His songs filled with love made the mountains ring
To the folk singer
At first Sara Jane was to be his bride
But as his fame grew, she was pushed aside
So the mountain girl would say goodbye
To the folk singer

He let his hair grow long, and he dressed in style
The folk singer
His voice was pure, and the fans went wild
For the folk singer
He said Sara Jane was much too plain
So he left her alone as grew more fame
But sorrow will come like a mountain rain
To the folk singer

Lavished in glory, fortune at his feet
The folk singer
Awoke one morning and he couldn't speak
The folk singer
The doctor said his singing days were through
Thousands wept, Sara Jane did too
He could not sing now his friends were few
The folk singer

Sick at heart in the mountains again
The folk singer
Now Sara Jane didn't look so plain
To the folk singer
Oh! The power of love can do strange things
Cause love has made him sing again
Only now he sings for his Sara Jane
The folk singer
And once again the mountains ring
To the folk singer

The folk singer
The folk singer

Фолк-певец

Он пел свои песни для Сары Джейн,
Фолк-певец.
Его песни любви звенели в горах,
Как фолк-певец.
Сначала Сара Джейн могла стать его женой,
Но с ростом славы ушла в тень.
И девушка с гор прощалась в тот день
С фолк-певцом.

Он отрастил волосы, стиль сменил,
Фолк-певец.
Его чистый голос фанатов пленил,
Фолк-певец.
Он сказал: "Сара Джейн — слишком проста",
Оставил её, слава звала,
Но печаль настигла, как горный шторм,
Фолк-певца.

Слава, богатство — всё у ног,
Фолк-певец.
Но утром проснулся — нет слов,
Фолк-певец.
Врачи сказали: "Петь нельзя".
Тысячи плакали, Сара — тоже.
Друзья ушли, петь не может,
Фолк-певец.

С разбитым сердцем в горах опять,
Фолк-певец.
И Сара Джейн — не так проста,
Как фолк-певцу казалось тогда.
О! Любовь творит чудеса —
Он снова поёт, вернулся дар.
Но теперь он поёт лишь для Сары,
Фолк-певец.
И снова песни в горах звучат,
Фолк-певец.

Фолк-певец.
Фолк-певец.
