Music for a while
Shall all your cares beguile:
Wond'ring how your pains were eas'd
And disdaining to be pleas'd
Till Alecto free the dead
From their eternal bands,
Till the snakes drop from her head,
And the whip from out her hands.
перевод - Н.Зингер
Music for a while
"Хоть ненадолго музыка вас отвлечет от всех забот,
Дивясь, как наступает облегченье,
И презирая угожденье,
Пока Аллекто мертвых не спасет
От вечных пут,
И аспиды с главы ее не уползут,
И бич из рук ее не упадет.
На время музыка вас отвлечет от всех забот."
Music for a while
Shall all your cares beguile:
Wond'ring how your pains were eas'd
And disdaining to be pleas'd
Till Alecto free the dead
From their eternal bands,
Till the snakes drop from her head,
And the whip from out her hands.
translation - N. Zinger
Music for a while
"For a while, the music will distract you from all worries,
Wondering how relief comes
And despising pleasing,
Until Allecto saves the dead
From eternal bonds
And the asps from its head will not crawl away,
And the scourge will not fall from her hands.
For a while, music will distract you from all worries. "
