Перевод песни The great Sun Jester | Группа blue oyster cult | Альбом Mirrors

1

They have killed the great Sun Jester Who danced between the stars They have stripped him of his manhood Signs of Venus and of Mars The cynics left him weeping And the jackals left him torn And the jester reaches out blind hands He can touch the stars no more

Они погубили великого Огненного Шута1, Танцевавшего среди звезд, Лишили его мужественности, Символов Венеры и Марса. Мерзавцы бросили его в слезах, Шакалы оставили растерзанным, И Шут вслепую протягивает руки, Он больше не сможет зажигать звезды.

2

And he took the stars in his hands And as he scattered them he'd shout I'm the joker of the universe I'm what it's all about Now he's dying in his grief And the hard men dragged him down They have killed the wild-eyed jester They have killed the fire clown

Он хватал звезды руками И, разбрасывая их, кричал: «Я – посмешище всей вселенной, В этом вся моя суть». Теперь он затих, охваченный горем, Головорезы сломили его, Подточили силы безумного Шута, Уничтожили огненного клоуна.

3

Now his blind eyes seek the starlight And his fingers seek controls To take him into space again Where he was both young and old The dancer's stiff with pain And they've made him kneel too long And the madness they have driven out They've left him cold and sane

Он ищет звездный свет ослепшими глазами, Его пальцы нащупывают штурвал, Чтобы вновь отправиться в космос, Где он был одновременно юным и старым. Плясун оцепенел от боли, его слишком долго Заставляли стоять на коленях, Изгнав безумие, они оставили его В здравом уме, но безучастным ко всему.

4

And he took the stars in his hands And as he scattered them he'd shout I'm the joker of the universe I'm what it's all about Now he's dying in his grief And the hard men dragged him down They have killed the wild-eyed jester They have killed the fire clown

Он хватал звезды руками И, разбрасывая их, кричал: «Я – посмешище всей вселенной, В этом вся моя суть». Теперь он затих, охваченный горем, Головорезы сломили его, Подточили силы безумного Шута, Уничтожили огненного клоуна.

5

He'll never sing his songs again He'll never dance between the stars again He'll never laugh again No, he'll never, ever laugh again Oh, no He'll never laugh again He'll never laugh again He'll never laugh again

Он больше никогда не споет своих песен, Не будет танцевать среди звезд, Не засмеется… Он больше никогда не будет смеяться, О, нет! Никогда не будет смеяться, Никогда не будет смеяться, Никогда не будет смеяться…

They have killed the great Sun Jester Who danced between the stars They have stripped him of his manhood Signs of Venus and of Mars The cynics left him weeping And the jackals left him torn And the jester reaches out blind hands He can touch the stars no more

And he took the stars in his hands And as he scattered them he'd shout I'm the joker of the universe I'm what it's all about Now he's dying in his grief And the hard men dragged him down They have killed the wild-eyed jester They have killed the fire clown

Now his blind eyes seek the starlight And his fingers seek controls To take him into space again Where he was both young and old The dancer's stiff with pain And they've made him kneel too long And the madness they have driven out They've left him cold and sane

And he took the stars in his hands And as he scattered them he'd shout I'm the joker of the universe I'm what it's all about Now he's dying in his grief And the hard men dragged him down They have killed the wild-eyed jester They have killed the fire clown

He'll never sing his songs again He'll never dance between the stars again He'll never laugh again No, he'll never, ever laugh again Oh, no He'll never laugh again He'll never laugh again He'll never laugh again
