Текст и перевод песни Billy Bragg - Between the Wars (Live at I Beam – San Francisco 3 June 1985)




Between the Wars (Live at I Beam – San Francisco 3 June 1985)
Между войнами (концерт в I Beam – Сан-Франциско, 3 июня 1985)
I was a miner
Я был шахтером, дорогая,
I was a docker
Я был докером,
I was a railway man
Я был железнодорожником,
Between the wars
Между войнами.
I raised a family
Я растил семью,
In times of austerity
Во времена жестокой экономии,
With sweat at the foundry
В поте лица на литейном заводе,
Between the wars
Между войнами.
I paid the union and as times got harder
Я платил профсоюзу, и по мере того, как времена становились тяжелее,
I looked to the government to help the working man
Я надеялся, что правительство поможет рабочему человеку,
But they brought prosperity down at the armoury
Но они спустили все средства на вооружение,
We′re arming for peace my boys!
Мы вооружаемся ради мира, ребята!
Between the wars
Между войнами.
I kept the faith and I kept voting
Я сохранял веру и продолжал голосовать,
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
Не за железный кулак, а за руку помощи,
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
Ведь их страна окружена стеной,
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
А моя вера в ближнего моего.
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Ихняя страна страна надежды и славы,
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Моя зеленые поля и заводские цеха,
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
Их небо темное от бомбардировщиков,
And mine is the peace we knew
А мой мир, который мы знали,
Between the wars
Между войнами.
Call up the craftsmen
Соберите ремесленников,
Bring me the draughtsmen
Приведите ко мне чертежников,
Build me a path from cradle to grave
Постройте мне путь от колыбели до могилы,
And I'll give my consent
И я дам свое согласие,
To any government
Любому правительству,
That does not deny a man a living wage
Которое не отказывает человеку в прожиточном минимуме.
Go find the young men never to fight again
Найдите молодых людей, которым больше не придется воевать,
Bring up the banners from the days gone by
Поднимите знамена былых времен,
Sweet moderation
Благословенная умеренность,
Heart of this nation
Сердце этой страны,
Desert us not, we are
Не покидай нас, мы
Between the wars
Между войнами.
