Tekst piosenki
I was born with this story, it’s older than I
And yet, you, when you hear, it you’ll know in the sky
In the wind of your knowledge, in the cut of your jib
That the fibre of wind is as new from my lip
As was ever and more and ever will be
Till the union we face casts us finally free
For we, in the love of an earth-bidden dance
Stand enthralled of that, which from heaven, perchance
Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace
And smile in the arms of sweet William’s
Embrace…
William’s wanderings took him abroad
Showed him the lay of the searcher’s long road
To the place he stood now 'neath the black laden sky
And the crook of his father had brought fortune nigh
Read the sign where he looked; not the bull, nor the bear
Nor a burly red lion, or the tortoise and hare
For we, in the love of an earth-bidden dance
Stand enthralled of that, which from heaven, perchance
Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace
And smile in the arms of sweet William’s
Embrace…
The end of the world was the name of the inn
Said fair William, «Farewell, to the world and its sin»
Its sin…
Full balmy was the winter air, all wet with what might die
A wishing well, the ocean bare, a millpond in his eyes
A glance to see from whence he came, for William, with a landlocked turn
Vermin what he stood to lose, the skin-shot snakes and earthy worms
His boots trod soft inside the inn, he’s greeted all was here
Abrasive lowly nods came back, then bent toward their beer
«They must know I,» thought Willy now, «They've seen me come from miles»
The thought was struck as whisky poured and barmen gave all smiles
Then followed this, a curious thing
The eldest of the host
Sang softly where he sat and drank
To love, a worthy toast
His song was of a stranger
Summoned for his rope
In all would be to set us free
His song was strong and bold, it went
We, in the love of an earth-bidden dance
Stand enthralled of that, which from heaven, perchance
Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace
And smile in the arms of sweet William’s
Embrace…
I was born with this story, it’s older than I
And yet you when you hear it you’ll know in the sky
In the wind of your knowledge, in the cut of your jib
That the fibre of wind is as new from my lip
As was ever and more and ever will be
Till the union we face casts us finally free
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
Urodziłem się z tą historią, jest starsza niż ja
A jednak, gdy usłyszysz, będziesz wiedział na niebie
/ Align = "left" /
Że włókno wiatru jest jak nowe z mojej wargi
As was ever and more and ever will be
Dopóki Unia, z którą mamy do czynienia, w końcu nas uwolni.
Dla nas, w miłości do ziemskiego tańca
Stań oczarowany tym, co z nieba, może
* Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace *
And smile in the arms of sweet William ' s
Embrace…
Wędrówki Williama zabrały go za granicę.
Pokazałem mu, jak wygląda długa droga poszukiwacza.
To the place he stood now ' neath the black laden sky
A oszust jego ojca przybliżył fortunę
Przeczytaj znak, gdzie spojrzał; ani byk, ani niedźwiedź
Ani burly red lion, ani the tortoise and hare
Dla nas, w miłości do ziemskiego tańca
Stań oczarowany tym, co z nieba, może
* Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace *
And smile in the arms of sweet William ' s
Embrace…
The end of the world was the name of the inn
"Żegnaj, światowi i jego grzechowi "»
To grzech.…
Pełne balsamu było zimowe powietrze, wszystko mokre z tym, co może umrzeć
Studnia życzeń, ocean nagi, staw młyński w jego oczach

Robactwo, co miał stracić, węże ze skóry i ziemskie robaki.
Jego buty stąpały w gospodzie, powitał wszystkich tutaj.

"Muszą mnie znać", pomyślał Willy, "widzieli mnie z daleka".»
Myśl została uderzona, gdy nalewano whisky, a barman się uśmiechał.
A potem podążałem za tym, ciekawą rzeczą.
Najstarszy z gospodarzy
Śpiewał cicho tam, gdzie siedział i pił
Za miłość, godny toast
"His song was of a stranger"

W all would be to set us free
Jego piosenka była silna i śmiała, poszło
My, w miłości do ziemskiego tańca
Stań oczarowany tym, co z nieba, może
* Lets us move with the gifts we were given in grace *
And smile in the arms of sweet William ' s
Embrace…
