John Vanderslice - Pale Horse

Текст

From the haunts of daily life
Where is waged the daily strife
Common wants and common cares
Cuts the human heart with tears

Rise like lions after a slumberin'
In greatly unknowable numbers

Let the tyrants pour around
With apocalyptic sound
On the charge of iron wheels
And the crash of horses heels

Rise like lions after a slumberin'
In greatly unknowable numbers
Free the blood that must ensue
We are many and they are few

From the workhouse and the prison
Pale as corpses newly risen
Knives are drawn now let them see
Standing tall that say they're free

Your strong and simple words
Set to wound as sharpened swords
Wide as targets let them be
With their shade to cover me

Rise like lions after a slumberin'
In greatly unknowable numbers
Free the blood that must ensue
We are many and they are few
Перевод

Из мест повседневной жизни
Где ведутся ежедневные раздоры
Общие нужды и общие заботы
Режет человеческое сердце слезами

Восстаньте, как львы после сна
В неведомых количествах

Пусть тираны разольются вокруг
С апокалиптическим звуком
В атаке железных колес
И грохот лошадей

Поднимитесь, как львы вслед дремлющий
В неведомых количествах
Освободите кровь, которая должна пролиться
Нас много, а их мало

Из работного дома и тюрьмы
Бледные, как только что восставшие трупы
Ножи обнажены, пусть увидят
Стоят прямо и говорят, что они свободны

Ваши сильные и простые слова
Настроены на раны, как заточенные мечи
Широкими, какими бы мишени ни были
Их тень укроет меня

Восстаньте, как львы после сна
В неведомых количествах
Освободите кровь, которая должна пролиться
Нас много, а их мало
