Урок 9.8 Песня Another Day In Paradise

Так, вашим вниманием представляется песня, которая называется "Навердей".

Справа, видите, перевод урок по строму следующему образом.

Я читаю песню быстро, вы перевернутой стороны карандаша, ту по стороны ведете за мной.

После этого мы слушаем, смотрим клип, затем читаем построчно.

И после этого уже поем окончательно.

Но сегодня будут предложены вам два варианта исполнения песни: с помощью группы Brandy, а также оригинал Фила Коленса.

Текст песни :

In our dreams we have a key by which we can enter paradise.

Oh, pretty teacher, it's just another day for you and me in paradise.

Pity the ones who wait, believing the lies that they're fed.

And maybe it's just because we have no lies by which we are misled.

Oh, we got no lies. Got no lies. We're flowing with the wind of truth.

You can see it in our faces. We're the children of the sun.

You'll be doin' fine if you check your mind, come along with us we're gonna fly.

Away from here, into the sun. Cuz there's no teaching to the test.

No Child Left Behind when you believe in yourself.

Okay, now that we watched the video, I wanted to ask you one question.

Why did I give you this song? Try to answer, please.

It actually has almost nothing to do with teaching English.

So, please watch carefully. Think about the meaning of the video.

You can watch it a few times. Read the lyrics one more time.

And then we'll talk and make a final conclusion together.

Let's listen.

I'm reading line by line. You repeat after me. Let's go.

Alright.

We read it. Now it's time for us to sing this song together.

But before we start, let's talk a little bit.

The answer to the question is a homeless person walking down the street.

It's very simple. Indifference and arrogance are taking over.

People are changing for the worse. You can see it very clearly in big cities.

Even in our little town of Kholkhoz, Severomorsk, it's present.

From the video you can understand that absolutely anyone could be in that woman's place.

In our minds now, we mostly think about how to earn more money.

To sell one car and buy another newer one with bigger wheels.

We walk over people's heads.

The pursuit of fame, wealth. To be recognized in society. Prestige.

Not the fact that the person is just a human being like you and me.

I'm trying to appeal to you with this song to stay humane.

Because all of this will pass. We will survive this.

We survived several wars. Furthermore, we will survive this state of society today.

I wanted to say that the government fuels the fire.

They say you need to strive for a comfortable, wealthy life.

Without specifying how to achieve it, no matter what.

Kill someone. Or deceive, bribe, sell out the Motherland.

Doesn't matter. Got rich, didn't get caught.

And society recognizes you. You're a human being.

Judging by many criteria that I see.

People are told, instilled in their minds one important detail -

that the main power on Earth is money.

Let's say, not for an American. Where is the power? Is it in money?

That's what my brother says, that power is in money.

We have a lot of money, so what?

I think power is in truth. Whoever has the truth is stronger.

You deceived someone, made money. Did you become stronger?

No, you didn't. Because you don't have truth.

And the one you deceived has the truth. That means he is stronger.

Right?

I believe power lies in faith. In caring for your neighbor, respecting elders and loving people.

That's how you measure how magnanimous a person is.

In conclusion, I'm not calling on you to abandon material things.

It's impossible to do that now. Otherwise we'd just go live in the woods.

I'm just asking, don't elevate money. Or what happened to the Rajah in Mudville could happen.

Remember?

Help!

The main material for Section 2 has been given.

Two lessons left to reinforce what we learned. Lessons 10 and 11.

After that, Section 3 starts.

In closing, I want to say remain humane.

Be good-natured and most importantly, equal in spirit.

On that, I bid you farewell with wishes of all the best.
