Текст песни (Quicksilver Daydreams Of) Maria - Re-Recording (Townes Van Zandt) с переводом

By townes van zandt

Well, the diamonds fades quickly when matched to the face of maria

All the harps they sound empty when she lifts her lips to the sky

The brown of her skin makes her hair seem a soft golden rainfall

That spills from the mountains to the bottomless depths of her eyes

Well, she stands all around me her hands slowly sifting the sunshine

All the laughter that linger down deep neath her smilin is free

Well, it spins and it twirls like a hummingbird lost in the morning

And caresses the south wind and silently sails to the sea

Ah, the sculpter stands stricken and the artist he throws away his brushes

When her image comes dancin the sun she turns sullen with shame

And the birds they go silent the wind stops his sad mournful singing

When the trees of the forest start gently to whisperin her name

So as softly she wanders Ill desperately follow her footsteps

And Ill chase after shadows that offer a trace of her sight

Ah, they promise eternally that she lays hidden within them

But I find theyve decieved me and sadly I bid them goodbye

So the serpent slide softly away with these moments of laughter

And the the old washy woman has finish her cleanin and gone

But the bamboo hang heavy in the bondage of quicksilver daydreams

And a lonely child longingly looks for a place to belong
