사진: Mary Hopkin(May 3 1950 - )
"벗이여, 아주 오래 전 우리들 어울려서 술잔 기울이던 선술집 있었지. 몇 시간 씩 신나게 떠들고 웃고 하던 일들이 생각나나? 벗이여, 온 종일 춤 추고 노래하며 보내던 날들이 있었지, 그런 날이 끊임없이 이어지고 우리가 택한 삶을 살아가면서 결코 패배하지 않으리라 생각했던 날들이 있었지. 그 때 우린 젊었고 우리 방식을 확신했었지. ... 벗이여, 이제 나이는 들었지만 우린 전혀 철들지 않았어. 가슴 속에 품었던 그 꿈들은 그대론데...”

아일랜드 출신 Liam Clancy(1935. 9.2 - 2009.12.4)의 같은 노래입니다. Mary Hopkin과는 완전히 다른 맛을 느끼게 됩니다. Mary
Hopkin같은 젊은 가수보다는 Liam처럼 나이 지긋한 남자 가수가 불러야, 가사의 맛이 살아나는 것 같습니다. 우리가 알고 있었던
폴 메가트니 작사/작곡이 아니라, Liam의 말대로라면 그의 친구인 Gene Raskin이 처음 만든 것 같군요. 또 아래 비디오를 보면
멜러디는 러시아 전통 민요를 빌린 게 아닌가 싶군요.

1. Those were the days
Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
Think of all the great things we would do
Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern,
We'd smile at one another and we'd say...
Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Just tonight I stood before the tavern.
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass I saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely woman really me?
Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da,
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da---
Through the door there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same....
Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da,
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da---
La-la-la la-la-la,
La-la-la la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
2. Streets of London
Have you seen the old man
In the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper,
with his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride
And held loosely by his side
Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news
So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind
Have you seen the old girl
Who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talking,
Just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.
So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind
In the all night cafe
At a quarter past eleven,
Same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world
Over the rim of his tea-cup,
Each tea lasts an hour
Then he wanders home alone
So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind
Have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman's mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears.
In our winter city,
The rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care
So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind
