Гуру ПесенVic Damone - If Ever I Would Leave You (1960; муз. Фредерика Лоу - ст.: Alan Jay Lerner) | Текст песни и Перевод на русский
Recorded from the LP "Great Songs of the 60s - Volume I," a Columbia Special Products LP "created exclusively for Safeway," according to the front of the LP jacket. Serial number is CSP 129; I am unable to determine the genesis of this LP, but judging by the style of the label it appears to have been marketed in the late 60s or early 1970s.

Camelot is a musical by Alan Jay Lerner (book and lyrics) and Frederick Loewe (music). It is based on the King Arthur legend as adapted from the T. H. White novel The Once and Future King.
The original 1960 production, directed by Moss Hart and orchestrated by Robert Russell Bennett and Philip J. Lang, ran on Broadway for 873 performances, winning four Tony Awards and spawning several revivals, foreign productions, and the 1967 film Camelot. The original cast album was America's top-selling LP for 60 weeks. The musical has become associated with the Kennedy Administration, which is sometimes referred to as the Camelot era.

...Robert Goulet received favorable reviews, most notably for his rendition of the show-stopping romantic ballad "If Ever I Would Leave You", which became his signature song.
...Act II
Several years later, Guinevere and Lancelot are still tormented by their unfulfilled love. She tries to get rid of him, but Lancelot will not leave her, ("If Ever I Would Leave You").
...Musical numbers
Act II
"If Ever I Would Leave You" – Lancelot
...Critical assessments
...A 1993 New York Times review commented that the musical "has grown in stature over the years, primarily because of its superb score.... [which] combined a lyrical simplicity with a lush romanticism, beautifully captured in numbers like 'I Loved You Once in Silence' and 'If Ever I Would Leave You.' These ballads sung by Guenevere and Lancelot are among the most memorable in the Lerner-Loewe catalogue.

If ever I would leave you
Если мне придется покинуть тебя
If ever I should leave you, it wouldn't be in summer
Seeing you in summer, I never would go
Your hair streaked with sunlight, your lips red as flame
Your face with a luster that puts gold to shame
But if I'd ever leave you, it couldn't be in autumn
How I'd leave in autumn, I never will know
I've seen how you sparkle when fall nips the air
I know you in autumn and I must be there
And could I leave you running merrily through the snow
Or on a wintry evening when you catch the fire's glow
If ever I would leave you, how could it be in springtime
Knowing how in spring I'm bewitched by you so
Oh, no, not in springtime, summer, winter, or fall
No never could I leave you at all
Если мне придется покинуть тебя однажды, то точно не летом,
Я не смогу уйти, глядя на тебя летом:
В твои волосы вплетается солнечный свет, губы твои горят, как огонь,
А лицо сияет, освещая самые все трудности...
И если мне придется покинуть тебя, то это случится не осенью.
Как мне уйти осенью — представить себе не могу!
Я ведь видел, как ты загораешься, когда приходит осень,
Я знаю, какая ты осенью, и я должен быть рядом!
И разве я могу покинуть тебя, когда ты, счастливая, бежишь по снегу?
Или зимним вечером, когда ты сидишь у огня?..
Если мне придется покинуть тебя однажды, то разве это может случиться весной?
Знаю, как сильно я очарован тобой весной,
О, нет, только не весной, не летом, не зимой, не осенью...
Нет, никогда не смогу я покинуть тебя!
