Перевод песни Aphrodite's Child - The shepherd and the moon

Do you know the story
Of the shepherd who did try
And took the river moon in his arms?
Listen to the story
Mainly if you can agree
Of the man who loved the woman.

You can tuck it up in your mind,
You would like to catch the moonlight,
But you know the thing is not right,
For all of us have some secrets to hide.

Woman was a sting in the thorn,
“You will get the moon for your horn.
You try to cheat and you’ll drown
Of the moon you were much too full.”

(Nowadays
People of the mountains say
That the gods put the moon high up in the sky
So that the men
Might not be tempted to steal it.)

Round in the depths of your mind
For today the moon is too high.
Shepherd tried to catch a sunrise.
You might be more lucky, if you try.
