Текст песни Britten: Peter Grimes, Op.33 / Act 1 - "Now the Great Bear and Pleiades" (Бенджамин Бриттен) с переводом

Now the Great Bear and Pleiades where earth moves

Are drawing up the clouds of human grief

Breathing solemnity in the deep night

Who can decipher

In storm or starlight

The written character

Of a friendly fate

As the sky turns, the world for us to change?

But if the horoscope' s bewildering

Like a flashing turmoil of a shoal of herring

Who can turn skies back and begin again?
