Текст и перевод песни Chumbawamba - When Alexander Met Emma




When Alexander Met Emma
Quand Alexandre a rencontré Emma
From the Bowery to old Suffolk Street
Du Bowery à la vieille rue Suffolk
A five dollar bill in her pocket
Un billet de cinq dollars dans sa poche
And a worldful of people to meet
Et un monde de gens à rencontrer
Ships rigging up in the Hudson
Des navires se préparent dans l'Hudson
Waiting for love to set sail
Attendant que l'amour lève l'ancre
Emma she tells Alexander
Emma dit à Alexandre
"I'll be there when you walk from the jail"
"Je serai là quand tu sortiras de prison"
"Take my hand. I'll take yours.
"Prends ma main, je prendrai la tienne.
Save my life. I'll save yours."
Sauve ma vie, je sauverai la tienne."
Newspaper talk turns to headlines
Les journaux parlent de gros titres
A love so cemented in fame
Un amour si cimenté dans la gloire
A word to the strike-breaking bosses
Un mot pour les patrons briseurs de grève
Propaganda in deed and in name
Propagande en actes et en paroles
Fourteen long years on the island
Quatorze longues années sur l'île
It's a lifetime of summers to wait
C'est une vie d'étés à attendre
And Emma, she meets Alexander
Et Emma rencontre Alexandre
As they unlock the last prison gate
Alors qu'ils ouvrent le dernier portail de la prison
"Take my hand. I'll take yours.
"Prends ma main, je prendrai la tienne.
Save my life. I'll save yours."
Sauve ma vie, je sauverai la tienne."

Исполнитель Chumbawamba, альбом The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or From Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won.
