I am the very model of a mediaeval Anglian (или песнь Теодена)
Прислала Marya с форума Хеннет-Аннун, атвор неизвестен, исполняется на мотив "A modern major general", whatever that may be"
К сожалению, перевести это я неспособна... ------------ Theoden sings.... I am the very model of a mediaeval Anglian The truth of this suffuses every nerve and every ganglion While some proclaim my folc (1) to be Germanic (miscellaneous) I am in in fact bewildered by this theory extra-eneous I'm neither Lombard, Hun or Goth or any of that eastern crowd We're Anglo-Saxon to the core although we fight on horses proud Some seem to think our armour bright could easily be Persian But it is plain to see that it is mediaeval Mercian Chorus: But it is plain to see that it is mediaeval Mercian But it is plain to see that it is mediaeval Mercian But it is plain to see that it is mediaeval Merci-Mercian Theoden... We are the very model of the pre-Normanic Angelcynn (2) We show it in the way we dress and in the way our songs are sung In normal conversation we employ the language Mercian And when we wish to swear, by heck! we don't just swear, we cursian (3) Our poetry's alliterative - it hardly ever rhymes at all We gather round mead benches and tell epics in our Saxon hall In matters of the hearth and hall, the homestead and the open weald We are the very model of a mediaeval gefeald (4) Chorus: They are the very model of a mediaeval gefeald They are the very model of a mediaeval gefeald They are the very model of a mediaeval gefe- gefeald Theoden... I am the very model of a hlaford (5) straight from Beowulf We go by names like Fram and Gram and Erkenbrand, Eorl and Wulf My hall of Meduseld which shines like gold under the sunne (6) hot Is obviously modelled on King Hrothgar's home of Heorot In fact we are not modelled on the Anglians historical We're more akin to mediaeval Mercians poetical But be that as it may I offer up this statement once again I am the very model of a mediaeval Anglian! (1) folc OE (pron. FOL-K) = people (2) Angelcynn OE (pron. AN-GEL-Cuunn) = the English people (3) cursian OE (pron. KURS-EE-AN) = to curse (4) gefeald OE (pron. YE-FE-ALD) = domain (5) hlaford OE (pron. HLA-VORD) = lord (6) sunne OE (pron. SUUN-NE) = sun |
