ДОВЫБИРАЛСЯ
Леонард Коэн, перевод песни
https://youtu.be/mcjul9zJOPY
С рождения нас учат,
Что нужно выбирать:
"Добро и зло повсюду
Учитесь отличать".
Когда б советы эти слушал,
Сегодня б не страдал -
Живу теперь и мучаюсь
За то, что выбирал.
Вокруг соблазнов уйма:
Гулял и кайфовал,
Любил немало женщин -
От них же пострадал.
Живу теперь и мучаюсь
За то, что выбирал.
Платить приходит время
За всё, что натворил.
Вернуть бы счастья бремя -
Какой же я дебил!
О жизнь моя дремучая -
Не в покер ведь играл! -
Живу теперь и мучаюсь
За то, что выбирал.
Теперь живу и мучаюсь
За то, что выбирал...
CHOICES
I;ve had choices
Since the day that I was born
There were voices
That told me right from wrong
If I had listened
No I wouldn;t be here today
Living and dying
With the choices I made
I was tempted
By an early age I found
I liked drinking
Oh, and I never turned it down
There were loved ones
But I turned them all away
Now I;m living and dying
With the choices I made
I;ve had choices
Since the day that I was born
There were voices
That told me right from wrong
If I had listened
No, I wouldn;t be here today
Living and dying
With the choices I made
I guess I;m paying
For the things that I have done
If I could go back
Oh, Lord knows I;d run
But I;m still losing
This game of life I play
Living and dying
With the choices I made
I;ve had choices
Since the day that I was born
There were voices
That told me right from wrong
If I had listened
No, I wouldn't be here today
Living and dying
With the choices I made
Living and dying
With the choices I made...
