[Noordkrone]

Когда я была маленькая, и записанная папой аудиокассета с песнями Битлов была одной из самых дорогих мне вещей, я не очень знала английского и не подозревала, о чем песня "Lady Madonna". И меня совсем не смущало, что после нее на кассете идет песня "Let it be". Теперь вот вспомнила - смутило

Lady Madonna

Lady Madonna, children at your feet.
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet.
Who finds the money? When you pay the rent?
Did you think that money was heaven sent?

Friday night arrives without a suitcase.
Sunday morning creep in like a nun.
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace.
See how they run.

Lady Madonna, baby at your breast.
Wonder how you manage to feed the rest.

See how they run.
Lady Madonna, lying on the bed,
Listen to the music playing in your head.

Tuesday afternoon is never ending.
Wednesday morning papers didn't come.
Thursday night you stockings needed mending.
See how they run.

Lady Madonna, children at your feet.
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet.

Let it be

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be.

And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be.

And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer
Let it be.

For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer
Let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer
Let it be.

And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow
Let it be.

I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be.
