Текст песни A Little Lyric of Great Importance (Harry Belafonte) с переводом

This evening there is quite a program in store for you

What? s with the Chad Mitchell trio, Odetta

and there? s Miriam Makeba and the Folk Singers

They? re going to be here for quite a while

And earlier today during the rehearsals

we have decided that we have better put

all of the most strenuous pieces up front.

So that after we have keeled over from exhaustion

There would not be any great effort

Needed for the end of the program

Consequently this next song we? re about to do Is the most difficult song that we have on the program this evening

Ah we had a much larger choir to start with

There was some 40 members, but during the rehearsal period

So strenuous was this piece

Most of the men had to take off because of laryngitis

Ah enough said about that because if I talk to much

I won? t have the energy to sing the song

A Little Lyric Of Great Importance

I wish, I wish

I wish the rent, I wish the rent

Was heaven sent
