The sea comes, year after year swallowing up the land:
|
I read in newspapers and magazines, listened to the radio.
|
If it goes like this, then we cannot avoid big trouble:
|
Hundreds of tons of water will cover us.
|
Antarctica is melting, glaciers are sliding onto the plains -
|
Polar bears will be upset and penguins will die.
|
If it goes like this, then we cannot avoid great grief:
|
We will be covered by miles of sea.
|
Chorus:
|
But do not rush, and you should not shed tears:
|
I can build an ark for you.
|
We are not afraid of storms, winds, torrential downpours:
|
You and I, together, we will find ourselves in a better world.
|
The sea beats with a wave, the wind tears the ears with a groan.
|
I am preparing my ark to save our bodies and souls.
|
If it goes like this, then we will be saved from a big trouble,
|
We are not afraid of hundreds of tons of water.
|
Chorus:
|
But do not rush, and you should not shed tears:
|
I can build an ark for you.
|
We are not afraid of storms, winds, torrential downpours:
|
You and I, together, we will find ourselves in a better world.
|
We are not afraid of storms, winds, torrential downpours:
|
You and I, together, we will find ourselves in a better world. |
