Девушка из Нагасаки - Английская Версия

1
He is a captain. His homeland is Marseille
He loves the thrill he gets in every bar fight
He smokes his pipe, he drinks the strongest ale
And he’s in love with a girl from Nagasaki
2
Leprosy left marks on her pale arms
So she tattooed two dragons there to hide it
And to a bar each night she comes to dance
She is the prettiest girl in Nagasaki
3
Her chest is small, but there’s the sparkle in her eyes
Her scarlet lips are moist like dew on poppies
The captain is at sea for six long months
And he’s in love with the girl from Nagasaki
4
He brings. The corals crimson as his blood
For her. The silken blouse colored khaki
But the greatest of the gifts that he has got
Is passion for a girl from Nagasaki
5
The captain returned from distant lands
But learned that rich man wearing suit of satin
Smoked too much opium one night and after that
He cut the throat of the girl from Nagasaki
6
Her chest is small, but there’s the sparkle in her eyes
Her scarlet lips are moist like dew on poppies
The captain leaves and goes far away
Without seeing the girl from Nagasaki
7
Now years have passed, and when the sea is calm
He sits at forecastle watching the horizon
He smokes his pipe, and waits for sleep to come
So, he can dream of a pretty girl from Nagasaki
