Текст песни ОМП - О капитан, мой капитан

“O CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN!.."
O captain! My captain! The difficult voyage is over
The ship withstood all the storms, it is crowned with glory.
The port is already close, I hear a ringing, people are looking, rejoicing,
How steadily our ship cuts the jets with the keel.
But the heart! A heart! A heart!
As the blood flows in a stream
On deck where the captain is
Fell asleep with the last sleep!

O captain! My captain! Get up and take the parade
The flag flies like a salute and the trumpeters are thundering;
You have bouquets and wreaths, people are crowding to you,
Enthusiastic faces are everywhere turned to you.
Wake up, father! My hand
Lies on your forehead
And you fell asleep on deck
Like a dead dream.

The captain does not answer and, turning pale, froze,
Doesn't feel my hand, the ardor in my heart faded away.
The anchors are already being dropped, and our voyage is over,
In a safe harbor, the ship sailed with a victory.
Rejoice, people, on the shore!
I'll stay alone
On deck where the captain is
I fell asleep with my last sleep.
