Текст песни The Glass On The Bar (Lee Kernaghan) с переводом

Three bushman one morning rode up to an Inn

And one of them called for drinks with a grin

They’d only returned from a trip to the north

And eager to greet them the landlord came forth

He absently poured out a glass of three star

And set down the drink with the rest on the bar

There that is for Harry he said and it’s queer

Tis' the very same glass he drank from last year

His name’s on the glass you can read it like print

He scratched it himself with an old piece of flint

I remember his drink it was always three star

He set down the drink with the rest on the bar

He looked at the horses and counted but three

You were always together where’s Harry cried he

Oh sadly they looked at the glass as they said

You may put it away for our old mate is dead

But one glazing out over the ridges afar

Said we owe him a drink leave the glass on the bar

Instr.

They thought of the far away grave on the plain

They thought of the comrade who’d not come again

They lifted their glasses and sadly they said

We drink to the name of our old mate who’s dead

And the sunlight streamed in and a light like a star

Seemed to glow in the depth of the glass on the bar

And still in that shanty a tumbler is seen

It stands by the clock ever polished and clean

And often the strangers will read as they pass

The name of the bushman engraved on the glass

And though on that shelf though a dozen there are

That glass never stands with the rest on the bar
