Текст (слова) песни: Leonard Cohen - Story of Isaac



The door it opened slowly,

My father he came in,was nine years old.

And he stood so tall above me,

His blue eyes they were shining

And his voice was very cold.

He said, "ive had a vision

And you know Im strong and holy,

I must do what Ive been told."

So he started up the mountain,

I was running, he was walking,

And his axe was made of gold.

Well, the trees they got much smaller,

The lake a ladys mirror,

We stopped to drink some wine.

Then he threw the bottle over.

Broke a minute later

And he put his hand on mine.

Thought I saw an eagle

But it might have been a vulture,

I never could decide.

Then my father built an altar,

He looked once behind his shoulder,

He knew I would not hide.

You who build these altars now

To sacrifice these children,

You must not do it anymore.

A scheme is not a vision

And you never have been tempted

By a demon or a god.

You who stand above them now,

Your hatchets blunt and bloody,

You were not there before,

When I lay upon a mountain

And my fathers hand was trembling

With the beauty of the word.

And if you call me brother now,

Forgive me if I inquire,

"just according to whose plan? "

When it all comes down to dust

I will kill you if I must,

I will help you if I can.

When it all comes down to dust

I will help you if I must,

I will kill you if I can.

And mercy on our uniform,

Man of peace or man of war,

The peacock spreads his fan.
