Текст песни Green Fields (The Northern Pikes) с переводом

Green fields where I walked when I was young man, in these

Green fields where I plowed as a farmer, in these

Green fields where I fought when I was a soldier in these green fields

Coat of arms and a man with flowers

Pink and smooth against the snow

Top floor of the building rent is cheap and the stove’s included

A chimney black and bricks of brown sternly standing in the fog

Monday noon but could be Tuesday fields never know the difference

Now I’m dreaming about Normandy

Now I’m remembering the fields I knew

Peering through the dusty slats at anything I care to see

Six floors up and all is well, as well expected to be The man with flowers straightens the little room that he calls home

Pots and pans hang on the wall and wait to be abused by him

Now I’m dreaming about bombs and blood

Now I’m remembering the things I did

Green the windows far away

A mile or two I’d dare to guess

A banker or insurance man would know the meaning of this outrage

Beds of asphalt sheets of clay and all the things that go with wisdom

Coat of arms and the man with flowers plays his bagpipes in the dark

Now I’m dreaming of St. Christopher

Now I’m remembering a summer morning
