Текст песни Song For Tingmissartoq (Bill Staines) с переводом

They looked from the side of the plane to the water below

Fresh out of Spain with the wind at their backs in a blow

Africa’s coast rolling by, under the blue of the clearest of skies

I can see them then, the fire of adventure, the dreamers again

And to this I sing

And wait for the wind that lifted Tingmissartoq’s wing

Little stone houses, like pebbles that dotted the sand

Far island harbors, looking for somewhere to land

Then up with the moon in the night, the din of the engine, the cabin’s thin

light

I can still hear the radio calling, the tower on the hill, And for this I sing

And wait for the wind that lifted Tingmissartoq’s wing

Then up to the north and the Orient late one July

Tingmissartoq comes all the Eskimo people would cry

Siberia’s coast on the run, then deep into China they followed the sun

I can see them then, the fire of adventure, the dreamers again

And for this I sing

And wait for the wind that lifted Tingmissartoq’s wing

Two with the heart of one and with the wind and water

America’s favorite son in love with the statesman’s daughter

Two with the heart of one and one with the dream of ages

He had a way with wings, she had a way with words

They looked from the side of the plane to the waters below

Fresh out of Spain with the wind at their backs in a blow

And I was along for the ride, up into the sun and I opened my eyes

And for this I sing

As I wait for the wind that lifted Tingmissartoq’s wing

And for this I sing

As I wait for the wind that lifted Tingmissartoq’s wing
