BETYÁRNÓTA Csütörtökön virradóra Találtam egy pej csikóra Azon hajtottam a tinót Mind a három daruszőr volt Tisza partján elaludtam Ej de szomorút álmodtam Megálmodtam azt az egyet Babám nem leszek a tied De amikor felébredtem Kilenc zsandár áll előttem Azt kérdezik mi a nevem Hol az utazólevelem Zsandár urak mit akarnak Talán vasalni akarnak Nem akarunk mink vasalni Szilaj csikót jöttünk venni Szilaj csikó nem eladó Nem is zsandár alá való Mer ha arra zsandár ülne Még a madár is rab lenne Azt kérdezik mi a nevem Hol az utazólevelem Kettőt mindjárt agyonlőttem Ez az utazólevelem | OUTLAW SONG Early one days morning I came upon a fine young horse I mounted up and led him onward He was gray as the sky above As the sky above I slept down by the river And what a sad dream i had I'm afraid, my love It must be true Today i will go and leave you Today i will be gone I awoke and was surrounded Nine of the law stood before me Askin’ me my name and business Demanding proof of me Demanding proof of me Proof of me - “What do you want from me? Would you have me your prisoner?” - “No, but you must give us that horse You must give us that roan gray horse” - “Listen, he ain’t for sale Never for the law to ride If that should happen none would be safe Even the birds Even the birds Would be afraid to fly” So they ask again what was my name they ask again what was my name… Two were dead before they could move Two were dead before they could move… “That's my name That's my name If you please That's my name That's my name If you please” |
