Kishore Kumar Hits — King Crimson - The NIght Watch - Live in Glasgow Apollo: October 23rd, 1973) текст песни

Исполнитель: King Crimson

альбом: The Great Deceiver (Pt. I)

Shine, shine, the light of good works shine
The watch before the city gates depicted in their prime
The golden light all grimy now
300 years have passed
The worthy captain and his squad of troopers standing fast
♪
The artist knew their faces well
Husbands of his lady friends
His creditors and councillors
In armour bright, the merchant men
Official moments of the guild
In poses keen from bygone days
City fathers frozen there
Upon the canvas dark with age
♪
The smell of paint, a flask of wine
Turn those faces all to me
Blunderbuss and halberd-shaft
Dutch respectability
They make their enter to, one by one
Defenders of that way of life
Redbrick home, the bourgeoisie
Guitar lessons for the wife
Hey, hey
♪
So many years we suffered here
Our country racked with Spanish wars
Now comes a chance to find ourselves
Quiet reigns behind our doors
Think about posterity again
♪
So the pride of little men
The burghers good and true
Still living through the painter's hands
Request you all to understand
