Поэтический перевод "I will survive!" Gloria Gaynor
Как я напугана была,
Как я была потрясена!
И ночь за ночью,
Сотни, тысячи ночей...
Смотри же - стала я сильней!
Ты тут как тут. Ты снова здесь.
И кажется - в печали весь.
Зря не сменила я замок,
Дурацкий ключ и даже дверь...
Ах, если б так! Тебя бы не было теперь!
Но вот те Бог, а вот порог!
Как ни пытался растоптать меня, не смог!
Ведь это ты меня ломал и говорил тогда: "Прощай!"
Но я цела, не умерла... Давай вали и не скучай!
Да, я жива! И буду жить!
Поскольку все же я могу ещё любить,
И это не моя вина,
Что жизнь полна... Любви полна!
Эй! Эй!
Как жизнь полна, любви полна!
И я теперь совсем не та -
Глупышка, дура, простота...
Ко мне хотел ты забежать
И насладиться тем опять,
Что я убита на корню?
Не ожидал, что я люблю?
Эй! Эй!
Что я ЛЮБИМА и ЛЮБЛЮ!!!
At first I was afraid, I was petrified!
Kept thinkin’ I could never live without you by my side.
But then I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong,
And I grew strong, and I learned how to get along.
And so you're back from outer space,
I just walked in to find you here with
that sad look upon your face
I shoulda changed that stupid lock,
I shoulda made you leave your key
If I had known for just one.
Oh no not I! I will survive!
Oh, as long as I know how to love,
I know I'll stay alive.
I've got all my life to live,
And I've got all my love to give,
I'll survive, I will survive!
Hey, hey...
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart,
And tryin' hard to mend the pieces
of my broken heart.
And I spent oh so many nights
just feelin' sorry for myself, I used to cry...
But now I hold my head up high
And you'll see me, somebody new;
I'm not that chained up little girl
who's still in love with you.
And so you felt like dropping
and just expect me to be free,
But now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone
who's lovin' me,
Go on now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now,
‘cause you're not welcome anymore.
Weren't you the one who tried
to break me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no not I! I will survive!
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive,
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give,
I'll survive, I will survive!
Oh...
Go on now go, walk out the door.
Just turn around now,
‘cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one
who tried to break me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no not I! I will survive!
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive,
I've got all my life to live,
And I've got all my love to give,
I'll survive, I will survive!
I will survive!
