Текст песни: The Last Song For My Resting Place + перевод

Mother, father, thank you so

For keeping the fires burning home

Brother, brother, for giving shelter

Throughout those years of war

Oh now that it’s nearly over

After a long night in wait

I’d soothe every soul

With the last comfort, but mine

I believe in love and you need to know

That my heart’s in your embrace

Now I’m leaving well but I bid farewell

One last song for my resting place

I grew up on a family farm

Where the wheat grows like gold

I played his music, he forgave my sins

As foretold in the books of old

Oh now that it’s nearly over

After a long night in wait

I’d soothe every soul

With the last comfort, but mine

I believe in love and you need to know

That my heart’s in your embrace

Now I’m leaving well but I bid farewell

One last song for my resting place

Dear Maria, enjoy your life

You’ve always known that

I’m by your side

These are fortunes worse than war

Beyond my reach and I have no more

My father said upon his death

Son, don’t shed a tear for me

Mrs. Robinson my only life

Nearer to God than to thee

Oh now that it’s nearly over

After a long night in wait

I’d soothe every soul

With the last comfort, but mine

I believe in love and you need to know

That my heart’s in your embrace

Now I’m leaving well but I bid farewell

One last song for my resting place

My father said on his deathbed

Son, don’t shed those tears for me

Mrs. Robinson oh you are my love

Nearer to God than to thee

Oh Maria, I loved you so

The heart grows fonder as I go

Please think of me as I sleep

From beyond the ship into the deep
