Текст песни: Capaldi + перевод

I sat down to suppertime on my way to the by and by

Chopping wood and drinking wine

So early in the morning

Oh, now the summer cools

Autumn played me for a fool

I chased a hart on the hunting ground

So early in the morning

I’m an old man in the gloaming

Sky put on your darkened coat

Sailor, fly your starry boat

Throw out all the lines you wrote

So early in the morning

The tide has run back to the sea

Drunks are down upon their knees

Oh, life was good to me

So early in the morning

I’m an old man in the gloaming

Just another brother, fallen

My true love wore a silver ring

The honeybee gave me his sting

Strange how it all comes back to me

So late in the evening

The tide has run back to the sea

Drunks are crying, «Jesus, please!»

Oh, life was good to me

So early in the morning

I’m an old man in the gloaming

Just like my brother, fallen
