Kris Kristofferson - Darby's Castle

Текст

See the ruin on the hill

Where the smoke is hanging still

Like an echo of an age long forgotten

There's a story of a home

Crushed beneath those blackened stones

And the roof which fell before the beams were rotten

Cecil Darby loved his wife

And he labored all his life

To provide her with material possessions

And he built for her a home of the finest wood and stone

And the building soon became his sole obsession

Oh, it took three hundred days for the timbers to be raised

And the silhouette was seen for miles around

And the gables reached as high as the eagles in the sky

But it only took one night to bring it down

When Darby's castle tumbled to the ground

Though they shared a common bed

There was precious little said

In the moments that were set aside for sleeping

For his busy dreams were filled

With the rooms he'd yet to build

And he never heard young Ellen Darby weeping

Then one night he heard a sound

As he laid his pencil down

And he traced it to her door and turned the handle

And the pale light of the moon

Through the window of the rooms

Split the shadows where two bodies lay entangled

Oh, it took three hundred days for the timbers to be raised

And the silhouette was seen for miles around

And the gables reached as high as the eagles in the sky

But it only took one night to bring it down

When Darby's castle tumbled to the ground

Перевод

Взгляните на руины на холме

Где дым все еще висит

Как эхо давно забытой эпохи

Это история дома

Раздавленный под этими почерневшими камнями

И крыша, которая упала до того, как балки прогнили

Сесил Дарби любил свою жену

И он трудился всю свою жизнь

Чтобы обеспечить ее материальными благами

И он построил для нее дом лучшее дерево и камень

И здание вскоре стало его единственной навязчивой идеей

О, потребовалось триста дней, чтобы поднять бревна

И силуэт был виден на многие мили вокруг

И фронтоны достигали высоты орлов в небе

Но потребовалась всего одна ночь, чтобы его разрушить

Когда замок Дарби рухнул на землю

Хотя они делили общую постель

Был очень мало сказано

В те минуты, которые были отведены для сна

Ибо его занятые сны были наполнены комнатами, которые ему еще предстояло построить

И он никогда не слышал, чтобы юная Эллен Дарби плакала

Однажды ночью он услышал звук

Когда он отложил карандаш

И он проследил его до ее двери и повернул ручку

И бледный свет луны

Через окно комнаты

Раздели тени, где два тела лежали перепутанными

О, потребовалось триста дней, чтобы поднять бревна

И силуэт был виден на многие мили вокруг

И фронтоны достигали высоко, как орлы в небе

Но потребовалась всего одна ночь, чтобы его разрушить

Когда замок Дарби рухнул на землю
