Cohen Leonard - Bird On The Wire

0
Текст
 
Like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If I, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.
 
Like a baby, stillborn,
like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me.
But I swear by this song
and by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee.
I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch,
he said to me, "You must not ask for so much."
And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door,
she cried to me, "Hey, why not ask for more?"
 
Oh like a bird on the wire,
like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
 
Перевод
 
Как птица на проволоке
как пьяный в полуночном хоре
Я по-своему пытался быть свободным.
Как червь на крючке,
как рыцарь из какая-нибудь старомодная книга
Я сохранила для тебя все свои ленты.
Если бы я, если бы я был недобрым,
Я надеюсь, что ты сможешь просто оставить это в покое.
Если бы я, если бы я были неправдой
Надеюсь, ты знаешь, что это никогда не касалось тебя.
 
Как ребенок, мертворожденный
как зверь своим рогом
Я разрывал всех, кто тянулся ко мне.
Но я клянусь этой песней
и всем, что я сделал неправильно
Я все заплачу тебе.
Я увидел нищего, опирающегося на свой деревянный костыль,
он сказал мне: «Ты не должен просить так много».
И красивая женщина, склонившаяся в затемненной двери,
она кричала мне: «Эй, почему бы не попросить большего?»
 
О, как птица на проводе
как пьяный в полуночном хоре
Я по-своему пытался быть свободным.
