Текст песни For the Love of It All (Peter, Paul & Mary) с переводом

In the beginning, as life became form

The oceans heaved, the mountains were cleaved

The firmament stormed

At the center of being, immensely small

Was the master of now, don’t ask me how

The Love of it all

And the seasons were many

Creation was new

And there on a tree (deceptively free)

A forbidden fruit

Upon leaving the garden, after the fall

One thing was clear; we chose not to hear

The Love of it all

But for the Love of it all

I would go anywhere

To the ends of the earth

What is it worth if Love would be there?

Walking the thin line between fear and the call

One learns to bend and finally depend

On the Love of it all

«Irresistible targets»

I heard someone say

They were speaking of angels

Who are so courageous day after day

Gunned down on a highway (as we often recall)

I hear a scream; I have a dream

The Love of it all

Still the world is in labor

She groans in travail

She cries with the eagle, the dolphin

She sighs in the song of the whale

While the heart of her people

Prays at the wall

A spirit inside is preparing a bride

For the Love of it all

For the Love of it all

Like the stars and the sun

We are hearts on the rise

Separate eyes with the vision of one

No valley too deep, no mountain too tall

We can turn back the night with merely the light

From the Love of it all

And so we are marching to 'to give peace a chance'

Brother and sister as one in this mystery dance

Long ago on a hilltop where now the curious crawl

A man on a cross paid the ultimate cost

For the Love of it all

For the Love of it all

We are gathered by grace

We have followed our hearts

To take up our parts

In this time and place

Hands for the harvest

Hear the centuries call:

It is still not too late to come celebrate

The Love of it all

«Eli, eli, lemana shabakthani»

The Love of it all
