Paroles et traduction ДДТ - Летели облака

Летели облака

Летели облака, летели далеко
Как мамина рука, как папино трико
Как рыбы-корабли, как мысли дурака
Над стёклами Земли летели облака
Летели облака
Летели купола, дороги и цветы
Звоня в колокола беспечные, как ты
Как капли молока, как "здравствуй" и "прощай"
Как недопитый чай летели облака
Летели облака
Летели кирпичи, солдаты старых стен
Богема и бичи, драконы перемен
Не страшная война, не горькое вино
Печальная страна, а в ней твоё окно
А в ней твоё окно
Летели не спеша, порхали неглиже
Как юная душа в сгоревшей парандже
В Даос и Вифлеем, к окраине Земли
От глупых теорем, оставленных в пыли
Летели облака
Зажгу на кухне свет, из века-сундука
Где крылья много лет искали седока
Достану, разомну, пристрою на спине
И запущу весну, и облака во мне
И облака во мне
Летели облака
Летели облака

Clouds Were Flying

Clouds were flying, flying far away
Like a mother's hand, like a father's track suit
Like fish-ships, like a fool's thoughts
Over the windows of the Earth, clouds were flying
Clouds were flying
Domes were flying, roads and flowers
Ringing their bells, carefree like you
Like drops of milk, like "hello" and "goodbye"
Like unfinished tea, clouds were flying
Clouds were flying
Bricks were flying, soldiers of old walls
Bohemians and tramps, dragons of change
Not a terrible war, not bitter wine
A sorrowful country, and in it, your window
And in it, your window
They flew unhurriedly, fluttered undressed
Like a young soul in a burned burqa
To Dao and Bethlehem, to the edge of the Earth
From foolish theorems left in the dust
Clouds were flying
I'll light the kitchen light, from the age-old chest
Where wings have been searching for a rider for many years
I'll take them out, stretch them, attach them to my back
And launch the spring, and the clouds within me
And the clouds within me
Clouds were flying
Clouds were flying
