Текст песни Hawknose Harlequin (Amon Düül II) с переводом

I heard about

A place they call Blind Square

In the middle

Of prophesied land

Surrounded by

A wall of mirrors

Two hundred feet high

And transparent

I tried very hard

To reach there

On a camel

I saved from a cook’s sneer

Seventy days

Seventy nights

I finally arrived

At the corners of Blind Square

A collection of clouds

At the reception

The egg-eyed doorman

Was serving a blink

Two ravens on his shoulders

As he whispered to my ear:

Don’t run so fast

If you want to see anything

I passed

The wizard’s wonky blizzards

When a phone box came

Sailing though the air

And a zebra

Walked in to Blind Square

Reciting loudly

The whole alphabet

Hope you can see me

Here in my barrel

The governor

Of the Blind Square District

He came rolling along

In slow-motion pictures

Handing me a form-sheet

And Shakespeare’s pen

I fell asleep

In the waterfall museum

And I heard the songs

Of the seven Sirens

I saw the children

They forgot their names

Playing all day long

On the wings of a crane

And the colour-blind legends

They were melting

In the heat of the sun, the heat of the sun

When Hawknose Harlequin came

He told me something

About the children’s gun

Smiling, smiling in his wheelchair

On the stairs of Blind Square

On the stairs of Blind Square

Later, man

Later
