Michael Nyman Band - I am an unusual thing (Mozart trans. Maynard Solomon) текст песни

Исполнитель: Michael Nyman Band

альбом: Michael Nyman: Songbook


I am an unusual thing.
I have no soul and no body.
One cannot see me
But can hear me.
I do not exist for me alone.
Only a human being can give me life
As often as he wishes.
And my life is only of short duration,
For I die almost at the moment I am born.
And so, according to man's caprice,
I may live and die untold times a day.
To those who give me life I do nothing,
But those on whose account I am born
I leave with painful sensations
For the short duration of my life;
Of my life till I depart.
I am appointed to a situation
Which will afford me
Leisure to write music
Just to please myself.
And I feel capable of doing something
Worthy of the fame I've acquired.
But instead, I must die.
Mozart's words three days before his death - from a reported conversation in English between Constanze Mozart and V. Novello.
