Текст песни «Hurdy Gurdy Man». Sting & Франц Шуберт

In the snow there
Stands a hurdy gurdy man,
With his frozen fingers
Plays as best he can.

Barefoot on the ice
He shuffles to and fro
And his empty plate
It only fills with snow.

No one wants to hear
His hurdy gurdy song,
Hungry dogs surround him
and before too long

He will fall asleep
and then before too long
He’ll just let it happen,
happen come what may.

Play his hurdy gurdy
till his dying day,

Watching you, old man,
I see myself in you.
One day I will play
This hurdy gurdy too.

Перевод песни

Там в снегу
Стоит шарманка,
Своими замороженными пальцами
Играет как может.

Босиком по льду
Он шаркает туда-сюда
И его пустая тарелка
Только засыпает снегом.

Никто не хочет слышать
Его песня на шарманке,
Голодные собаки окружают его
и слишком долго

Он заснет
а потом слишком долго
Он просто позволит этому случиться,
случится будь что будет.

Сыграй на его шарманке
до дня своей смерти,

Смотрю на тебя, старик,
Я вижу себя в тебе.
Однажды я буду играть
Эта шарманка тоже.
