Текст песни Waiting for the Lark (June Tabor) с переводом

Sleep on child, it is not quite day

For the moon has still to set

Oh the lark she will cry

And bring down the morning to where you lie

But the lark has not risen yet

Oh, the lark has not risen yet

Sleep on child while the birds rest on

And the cow she sleeps in her stall

Oh the meadow stands grey

In this dew-down moment before the day

And waits for the lark to call

And waits for the lark to call

Sleep on child while the fields are still;

They wait for your father’s hand

But he will not go

And the sun will not shine and the cock will not crow

Til the lark cries over the land

Til the lark cries over the land

Sleep on child and heed no sound

For your father may rise in the dark

With his boots in his hand

Go drowsily down by the doorway to stand

Waiting for the lark

Waiting for the lark
