Johnny Cash - Jesus Was a Carpenter (Live At The White House, Washington D.C., April 17, 1970) - перевод текста песни на русский




Jesus Was a Carpenter (Live At The White House, Washington D.C., April 17, 1970)
Иисус был плотником (Живое выступление в Белом доме, Вашингтон, округ Колумбия, 17 апреля 1970 г.)
Jesus was a carpenter and he worked with a sow and a hammer
Иисус был плотником, работал с пилой и молотком,
And his hands could form a table true enough to stand forever
И его руки могли создать стол, достаточно прочный, чтобы стоять вечно.
And he might have spun his life out in the coolness of the mornings
И он мог бы прожить свою жизнь в прохладе утра,
But he put aside his tools and he walked the burning highways
Но он отложил свои инструменты и пошел по пыльным дорогам,
To build a house from folks like you and me
Чтобы построить дом из таких людей, как мы с тобой, дорогая.
And he found them as they wandered through the wild Judean mountains
И он находил их, когда они бродили по диким Иудейским горам,
And he found them as they pulled their nets upon the Sea of Galilee
И он находил их, когда они забрасывали свои сети в Галилейское море.
And for a thousand evenings while the day behind him emptied
И тысячи вечеров, когда день позади него угасал,
He walked among the poor and he stopped to touch the dying
Он ходил среди бедных и останавливался, чтобы прикоснуться к умирающим.
And he built his house from people just like these
И он построил свой дом из таких людей, как эти.
It was on a shining Sunday when he rode to old Jerusalem
В светлое воскресенье он въехал в старый Иерусалим,
And the palms they cast before him were the crimes they laid against him
И пальмовые ветви, брошенные перед ним, были обвинениями, выдвинутыми против него.
It was on a stormy Friday when he climbed the streets of Calvary
В бурную пятницу он поднимался по улицам Голгофы,
And where he died today why they're sellin' beads and postcards
А там, где он умер, сегодня продают бусы и открытки,
And they tell us too that that was long ago
И говорят нам, что это было давно.
But would he stand today upon the sands of California
Но стоял бы он сегодня на песках Калифорнии,
Or walk the sweating blacktop in New York and Mississippi
Или шел бы по раскаленному асфальту в Нью-Йорке и Миссисипи,
Where the mighty churches rise above the screaming cities
Где могучие церкви возвышаются над кричащими городами?
Would he be a guest on Sunday a vagrant on a Monday
Был бы он гостем в воскресенье, бродягой в понедельник,
With the doors locked tight against his kind you know
Когда двери плотно закрыты перед такими, как он, ты знаешь.
Come again now Jesus be a carpenter among us
Приди снова, Иисус, будь плотником среди нас.
There are chapels in our discontent cathedrals in our sorrows
Есть часовни в нашем недовольстве, соборы в наших печалях,
And we dwell in golden mansions with the sand for our foundations
И мы живем в золотых особняках с песком в фундаменте,
And the raging water's rising and the thunder's all around us
И бушующая вода поднимается, и гром гремит вокруг нас.
Won't you come and build a house on rock again
Не придешь ли ты и не построишь ли снова дом на скале?
Jesus was a carpenter...
Иисус был плотником...
