Comme les fêtes de fin d'année se terminent et nous revenons tous à la routine, nous voudrions partager avec vous l'une des belles chansons de Charles Aznavour sur les fêtes de Noël. Écoutons encore une fois sa chanson « Noëls d'autrefois » et rappelons les belles traditions et l'âme de cette fête que nous avons perdues dans un monde qui change rapidement...—
Քանի որ ամանորյա տոներն ավարտվում են, և բոլորս վերադառնում ենք սովորական աշխատանքային առօրյային, ցանկանում ենք վերհիշել Շառլ Ազնավուրի գեղեցիկ երգերից մեկը: Եկեք ուշադիր լսենք նրա «Goodbye Christmas Past» երգի բառերը և վերհիշենք անցյալում Սուրբ ծննդյան տոները նշելու ավանդույթը, որը կորցրինք այս արագ փոփոխվող աշխարհում:—
As the holiday season ends and all of us are getting back to our normal routine, we want to share with you one of the beautiful songs of Charles Aznavour about Christmas. Let’s listen carefully to the lyrics in his song “Goodbye Christmas Past” and think about the “Christmas past” that we lost in this fast changing world.Goodbye Christmas Past
Away from city lights, in Christmases gone by
We children held our blazing torches to the sky.
In biting frosty nights we walked the country lanes before the time and noise of cars and aeroplanes.
Then in a crowded church, with candles all around
We prayed, and ev'ry wall was echoing the sound
The midnight holy hymns and carols we would sing
Were better than a show, and never cost a thing.
Goodbye Christmas past
You soul and your meaning
The world turned too fast
Goodbye Christmas past...
At home the Christmas dinner was a feast of joy
When mother was the cook and I the kitchen-boy
A home-cured ham and pork were roasting in the dish
While father made the pudding, I stirred in a wish.
Then all we little children eagerly would kneel
Upon the wooden benches for the festive meal
A pine tree used to stand, majestic in its height
As silver-paper angels danced in candlelight.
Goodbye Christmas past
Of youth and believing
The world turned too fast
Goodbye Christmas past...
Now plastic trees replace the pines of long ago
Sprayed with some tins of instant artificial snow
Electric lights instead of candles that we knew
The Christmas cake comes straight from factory to you!
No need to go to church, the Mass can now be seen
In comfort from your armchair, on the TV screen
The bishop gives his blessing live and nationwide
And when we've had enough, we watch the other side!
Goodbye Christmas past
Make way for tomorrow
The world turned too fast
Goodbye Christmas past...
