Daniel Kahn & The Painted Bird - Hallelujah dalszöveg fordítás angol nyelvre

Hallelujah

There was a secret tune
Thad David played for God.
But for you it would never be such salvation.
One sings it like so: a fa, a sol
A misheberach1 raises a voice
The confused king weaves a hallelujah...
 
Your faith has grown weak,
Bathsheba bathes herself on the roof,
Her charm and the moon are your remedy.
She takes your body, takes your head,
She cuts a braid from your hair,
And pulls down from your mouth a hallelujah...
 
Oh dear, I know your style
I've slept on your floor,
I'd never lived with such a treasure of a woman.
I see your castle,
I see your flag,
A heart is no king's throne,
It's a cold and ruined hallelujah...
 
Oh, tell me again, like before
What's happening down there in your lap?
Why must you be ashamed, like a virgin?
Just remember how I dwelled in you,
How the holy feminine spirit glows in our blood,
And every breath utters a hallelujah...
 
Could be my God isn't there at all,
And live could be a moral monstrosity,
An empty dream, broken and bankrupt,
It's not a cry in the middle of the night,
It's not a reborn zealot awakened,
But a sad, lonesome-voiced hallelujah...
 
You call me an apostate,
I blaspheme withe the Holy Name
No matter, I'm not expecting the messanic age.
But it burns hot in every letter,
From alef-bet2 all the way to the end,
The holy and ruined Hallelujah
 
And that's all, it's not a lot,
In the meantime, I'll do what I do,
I come here as a mensch3,
not a scoundrel4.
Though all is lost anyway,
I will praise Adonai5
And cry like 'L'chaim'6 Hallelujah...
