Drifter's Escape

Оригинал: Bob Dylan

Побег босяка

Перевод: Олег Крутиков

“Oh, help me in my weakness!”

"Помогите мне в слабости моей!" —

I heard the drifter say

Я слышал, кричал босяк,

As they carried him from the courtroom

Когда его выводили из зала суда

And were taking him away.

И высылали прочь.

“My trip hasn't been a pleasant one,

"Мой путь был не из приятных,

And my time it isn't long,

И времени почти нет,

And I still do not know

А я до сих пор не понимаю,

What it was that I've done wrong!”

В чём же я нагрешил".

Well, the judge, he cast his robe aside,

Судья скинул мантию,

A tear came to his eye,

На глазах блеснула слеза:

“You fail to understand,” he said,

"Ты даже не понимаешь, — сказал он. —

“Why must you even try?”

Так к чему и пытаться?"

Outside, the crowd was stirring,

На улице волновалась толпа,

You could hear it from the door,

Это было слышно у двери,

Inside, the judge was stepping down

А внутри уступал судья,

While the jury cried for more.

Когда присяжные требовали строгости.

“Oh, stop that cursed jury!”

"Остановите это проклятое жюри! —

Cried the attendant and the nurse,

Вскричали служитель и сиделка. —

“The trial was bad enough

Разбирательство было подлым,

But this is ten times worse!”

Но это в десять раз хуже!"

Just then a bolt of lightning

И вдруг молния с неба

Struck the courthouse out of shape,

Поразила судейский дом,

And while ev'rybody knelt to pray,

И, пока все пали на колени,

The drifter did escape.

Босяк сумел сбежать.
