Rent (musical) - Zuerst Für Dich dalszöveg fordítás angol nyelvre

First For You

[Mark:]
Enter Tom Collins!
Computer genius, teacher, vagabond, anarchist,
Ran naked through the Parthenon!
 
[Mark & Collins:]
Espresso, Marlboro,
Bananas for brunch,
And Cap'n Crunch is our pride and joy
 
[Collins:]
And firewood!
 
[Mark:]
Just like Santa Claus!
 
[Collins:]
Enough applause!
 
[Roger:]
Oh, hi...
 
[Collins:]
'Oh, hi' after 7 months?
 
[Roger:]
Sorry...
 
[Collins:]
Cheers, get it while it's hot!
 
[Collins, Mark & Roger:]
Holy night~
 
[Roger:]
Do you own the institute?
 
[Collins:]
Nobody liked my theory of Actual Reality,
But I'll teach it soon to all the lazy bums at New York University!
You still at home?
 
[Roger:]
I was waiting for you, isn't it obvious?
 
[Collins:]
Maureen's playing today
Come with us to the Life Cafe
C'mon!
 
[Roger:]
No mooing...
 
[Collins:]
Gentlemen, the donor of this Christmas feast today
Full of generosity,
Which just makes her talent shine even brighter1
A new member of our Alphabet City Avantgarde:
Angel Dumott Schunard!
 
[Angel:]
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
 
[Collins:]
Her beat won't leave you cold
 
[Mark:]
Was so much money just laying on the asphalt?
 
[Angel:]
I don't know what happened to me today
On Avenue A
A lady in a limousine saw me there
She said:
'Honey, no matter what I do,
I can't sleep one wink
You've got to help me
Make the neighbor's dog disappear in a flash'
 
'This Akita - Evita, never shuts up
I'm sure if you play nonstop,
That dog will yap for the last time by sunrise2
No question, this mutt will simply bark itself to death'
 
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
 
I'm thinking:
'Now or never - with a thousand dollar guarantee,
Tax free, if I make her Christmas tree shine like never before3
So I had to get it to bark, and it went pretty fast...
As sure as I'm standing here now, that dog is in doggy hell
 
After an hour, Evita,
In all her glory,
On the window ledge of the high-rise, thought about death
My 8th drum solo was too loud for her:
A nosedive on the jogging trail in Central Park
 
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
 
Then, out in the night
I quickly made friends
With the sweetheart here,
Who they almost killed
He was half dead,
But Sister Angel had iodine
I took good care of him
As you can see, he's laughing again
 
And singing!
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
First for you - and tomorrow for me!
 

• 1. Collins uses 'his' here, but uses 'her' a few moments later. Going by the standard of the latest official proshot of RENT (That being RENT: Live), the pronoun 'she' was used to refer to Angel the entire show, save the time Mark messes up during the funeral and promptly corrects himself. That being said, I'll mark each time 'he' is used, but translate it as she.
• 2. I'm not necessarily confident in this translation, because 'bis zum Morgenrot' can mean 'until dawn' and 'at dawn.' Context would imply she is sure the dog will be quiet before/at dawn, however.
• 3. The term here is literally 'if her Christmas tree shines like never before,' but the English version implies Angel is the one who does this ('Tax free, and a bonus if I trim her tree')
