Перевод песни

Песня: Dark as a Dungeon
Come all you young fellers, so young and so fine
And seek not your fortunes way down in the mine
It will form like a habit and seep in your soul
'Til the stream of your blood flows as black as the coal

It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines

There is many a man I have seen in my day
Who lived just to labor his whole life away
Like the fiend with his dope and the drunkard his wine
A man will have lust for the lure of the mine

It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines

I hope when I'm dead and the ages shall roll
That my body will blacken and turn into coal
I will look from the door of my heavenly home
And pity the miner a' diggin' my bones

It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines [2x]

Перевод песни:
Темно, как в темнице

Не ходите, молодые парни, такие молодые и красивые,
И не ищите свою судьбу на шахте.
Это превратится в привычку и проникнет к вам в душу,
Пока поток вашей крови не станет черным, как уголь.

Она темна, как темница, и сыра, как роса.
Там вдвойне опасно, а удовольствие сомнительно.
Там никогда не идет дождь и не светит солнце...... [открыть перевод]
