Текст песни Singapore (Beau) с переводом

«Pass the lady’s cape!» said I

To the rickshaw boy

As midnight kissed a sighing Singapore.

«Take us to the highway

Of spluttering champagne

And candles dancing over every door.»

And he smiled, and he said «Yessir».

«Once more down the coast road;

Take us to the bay;

Let us see the fireboats nestle to the quay.

And you listen to me,

You rickshaw boy,

You see you keep your yellow eyes turned to the sea.»

And he smiled, and he said «Yessir».

«Take the lady’s cape,» said I.

«Let her body breathe

And let the wind have all that it reveals.

Let the whispered silver

From the China moon

Alight upon the gently rocking wheels.»

And he smiled, and he said «Yessir».

«Pass the lady’s cape,» said I,

«You, rickshaw boy,

She’s seen the sky and now she needs her comb.

Back up on the highway,

Take me back to Raffles

Then take her cape and take your sister home.»

And he smiled, and he smiled,

And he smiled, and he said «Yessir»
