Текст песни Unconquered Sun (Steeleye Span) с переводом

With solstice here we’ll celebrate

This sacred time and have much cheer

We will bring warmth, we will bring light

Into the darkest time of year

The mistletoe will be cut down

With sickle from the sacred tree

A kiss I’ll give to you my love

A pledge of friendship made to thee

For greater than the will of man

Or want of that which can be done

It falls and shines on where we stand

Beneath the great unconquered sun

For this is now our turning point

The shortest day, the longest night

We’ll look unto the months to come

When the sun will grow both strong and bright

A vessel crown all decked with green

That tells of winter’s tales and mirth

Will bring great gladness and much joy

To all who walk upon this earth

And greater than the will of man

Or want of that which can be done

It falls and shines on where we stand

Beneath the great unconquered sun

The servants and the lords alike

And masters they will feast with slaves

And give them freedom they desire

Set thief and scoundrel free this day

With candles, dolls and gifts of fruits

And blackened faces through the street

We’ll praise good fortune, raise our cups

And drink a toast to king and queen

Far greater than the will of man

Or want of that which can be done

It falls and shines on where we stand

Beneath the great unconquered sun

We’ll burn the lamps toward away

The spirits in the halls of those

Whose houses all be decked with boughs

Where evergreen and laurel grows

The earth’s white crust where it lay down

Does bow the oaken branch to fall

'Tis solstice now, account ye sins

Repent ye beggars one and all

For greater than the will of man

Or want of that which can be done

It falls and shines on where we stand

Beneath the great unconquered sun

For greater than the will of man

Or want of that which can be done

It falls and shines on where we stand

Beneath the great unconquered sun

It falls and shines on where we stand

Beneath the great unconquered sun
