Текст песни: Jerusalem + перевод

In a compound on the edge of town

Security to keep the outside out

You and your friends have been discussing how

It seems rebellious to vote conservative now

And your mind’s so sharp

And your eyes so bright

You shine in love, you are born annointed

You mean so well

And you’ll hurt so hard

When you come to be disappointed

But I am never going home again

And I will build Jerusalem

Don’t know about us, but I know about Them

And we will build Jerusalem

Jerusalem.

You know exactly how clever sounds

The soft consonants and rounded vowels

You know the land that your labour’s earned

Your hypotheses have been confirmed

We all love the smiths

And we dig the clash

But the smell of leather is intoxicating

We’re all brilliant minds

We’re genii

We excel at drama and formal debating

But I am never going home again

And I will build Jerusalem

Don’t know about us, but I know about Them

And we will build Jerusalem

Jerusalem.

You can take your burning gold

You can take your swords and spears

You can take your lamb of god

You can take these deadly years

You can win and win

And win again

The dice are loaded you’ll never miss

But you can’t build

Jerusalem

Cause you don’t know what building is.
