Vladimir Vysotsky - Песня о вещей Кассандре (Pesnya o veschey Kassandre) dalszöveg fordítás angol nyelvre
English (metered, poetic)
About Cassandra the Prophet
Versions: #1For the time spend under siege Troy won’t abandon
Its position of a citadel outstanding,
But the Trojans disbelieved the seer Cassandra,
Otherwise, it’s likely Troy might still be standing.
CHORUS:
The crazy maiden never stopped her hollers:
“I see Troy city fallen down to dust!”
Yet the clairvoyants, just like the beholders,
In every age were burned at stake and fast.
And on the night, when from the wooden horse's venter
The Death descended, as it should be, on her wingtips,
Above the slaughtered crowd of the vindictive madmen
A sudden cry burst out: “It is this witch who’s guilty!”
The crazy maiden never stopped her hollers:
“I see Troy city fallen down to dust!”
Yet the clairvoyants, just like the beholders,
In every age were burned at stake and fast.
And on this night, and in this blood, in this confusion,
When all foretellings had come true with flying colors,
The crowd could find the perfect moment and solution
To swiftly carry out its usual reprisals.
The crazy maiden never stopped her hollers:
“I see Troy city fallen down to dust!”
Yet the clairvoyants, just like the beholders,
In every age were burned at stake and fast.
The end is quite unfortunate, although not tragic,
A certain Greek had found the shrine of the predictor,
And started using her not as the great Cassandra,
but as a prize of an insatiable young victor.
The crazy maiden never stopped her hollers:
“I see Troy city fallen down to dust!”
Yet the clairvoyants, just like the beholders,
In every age were burned at stake and fast.
