Текст песни Where Is It Written? (Barbra Streisand) с переводом

PRAYER

God, our merciful father,

I??? m wrapped in a robe of light,

Clothed in your glory

That spreads its wings over my soul.

Maybe I be worthy

Amen.

There??? s not a morning I begin without

A thousand questions running through my mind,

That I don??? t try to find the reason and the logic

In the world that God designed.

The reason why

a bird was given wings,

If not to fly and praise the sky

With every song it sings.

What??? s right or wrong,

Where I belong

Within the scheme of things…

And why have eyes that see

And arms that reach

Unless you??? re meant to know

There??? s something more?

If not to hunger for the meaning of it all,

Then tell me what a soul is for?

Why have the wings

Unless you??? re meant to fly?

And tell me please, why have a mind

If not to question why?

And tell me where-

Where is it written what it is

I??? m meant to be, that I can??? t dare

To have the chance to pick the fruit of every tree,

Or have my share of every sweet-imagined possibility?

Just tell me where, tell me where?

If I were only meant to tend the nest,

Then why does my imagination sail

Across the mountains and the seas,

Beyond the make-believe of any fairy tale?

Why have the thirst if not to drink the wine?

And what a waste to have a taste

Of things that can’t he mine?

And tell me where, where is it written what it is

I’m meant to be, that I can’t dare-

To find the meanings in the mornings that I see,

Or have my share of every sweet-imagined possibility?

Just tell me where- where is it written?

Tell me where-

Or if it’s written anywhere?
