Перевод песни Blackmore's Night - Peasant's promise

One warm summer night

He rode into sight

On a wild mare that was so perfectly white

I’d dreamed he’d return

and I was right

Wishes can come true when you wish with all your might…

One look in his eyes

I had realized

His life was so simple he had no disguise

He lived day to day, no promise he would stay

But in these few words he stole my heart away

He said:

“My life’s not to lead

Through power or greed

I am but a poor man

when I’m cut I bleed

A more humble man you never will meet

And here is my heart for only you to keep…”

In the shade of the willow tree

My poor peasant promised to me

No scholarly thoughts, he couldn’t pay high costs

And sometimes it feels like he’s totally lost

But he said this true and he said it loud

“I promise you my heart with this solemn vow…”

One warm summer night

He rode out of sight

On a wild mare that was so perfectly white

I’d dreamed he’d return and I was right

Wishes can come true when you wish with all your might…

In the shade of the willow tree

My poor peasant promised to me.

In the shade of the willow tree

My poor peasant promised to me.
