Текст песни Old Bush Mates Of Mine (Slim Dusty) с переводом

There’s a far off distant valley where the Nulla moon shines bright

I can see it all so clearly for in dreams I’m there tonight

I go wanderin' through my memories and my restless heart beats time

To dwell a while and sadly smile for these old bush mates of mine

I recall the summer evenin’s away out on the farm

And the dances that we went to in a neighbours old slab barn

I can see the sawdust risin' as we pranced around the room

The old violin and accordion pumpin' out an old bush tune

How’s that

Happy days with schoolboy cobbers there was Shorty Ron and Jim

We’d swim beneath the willows chasin' turtles down the stream

Oh the bushland was just a playground beneath the friendly sky

My thoughts still go to the land I know where the big blue mountains rise

Saddlin' up for the springtime muster down at the old stock yards

When the brandin' fires were smokin' and the day was long and hard

I can still hear the old man swearin' get a move on you blokes don’t crawl

The sun is high and the dust clouds fly as we grab a steer and call

I’m so sad for dear old homeward oh I’ve been away so long

I hope the folks are listenin' and I hope they hear this song

For I’ll soon be back out yonder and you can bet your boots I’ll shine

And sing at night by the lantern light with those old bush mates of mine
