Lyrics and translation XTC - Books Are Burning (Live On 'The Late Show')




Books are burning
Книги горят.
In the main square, and I saw there
На главной площади, и я увидел там ...
The first eating the text
Первый съедает текст
Books are burning
Книги горят.
In the still air
В неподвижном воздухе
And you know where they burn books
И ты знаешь, где сжигают книги.
People are next
Люди следующие
I believe the printed word should be forgiven
Я считаю, что печатное слово должно быть прощено.
Doesn′t matter what it said
Не важно, что там написано.
Wisdom hotline from the dead back to the living
Горячая линия мудрости от мертвых обратно к живым
Key to the larder for your heart and head
Ключ от кладовой для твоего сердца и головы.
Books are burning
Книги горят.
In our own town, watch us turn 'round
В нашем собственном городе, Смотри, Как мы оборачиваемся.
And cast our glances elsewhere
И бросим наши взгляды в другое место.
Books are burning
Книги горят.
In the playground
На детской площадке
Smell of burnt book is not unlike human hair
Запах сожженной книги похож на запах человеческих волос.
I believe the printed word is more than sacred
Я верю что печатное слово более чем Свято
Beyond the gauge of good or bad
За гранью хорошего и плохого.
The human right to let your soul fly free and naked
Право человека позволить своей душе свободно и Наго летать.
Above the violence of the fearful and sad
Над жестокостью страшной и печальной.
The church of matches
Церковь спичек
Anoints in ignorance with gasoline
Помазывает в невежестве бензином
The church of matches
Церковь спичек
Grows fat by breathing in the smoke of dreams
Толстеет, вдыхая дым снов.
It′s quite obscene
Это довольно непристойно.
Books are burning
Книги горят.
More each day now, and I pray now
С каждым днем все больше, и теперь я молюсь.
You boys will tire of these games
Вы, мальчики, устанете от этих игр.
Books are burning
Книги горят.
I hope somehow, this will allow
Я надеюсь, что так или иначе это позволит
A phoenix up from the flames
Феникс восставший из пламени
