Indoor Games Near Newbury Lyrics – Sir John Betjeman
Singer: Sir John Betjeman
Title: Indoor Games Near Newbury
In among the silver birches
Winding ways of tarmac wander
And the signs to Bussock Bottom
Tussock Wood and Windy Break
Gabled lodges, tile-hung churches
Catch the lights of our Lagonda
As we drive to Wendy’s party
Lemon curd and Christmas cake
Rich the makes of motor whirring
Past the pine plantation purring
Come up Hupmobile Delage
Short the way our chauffeurs travel
Crunching over private gravel
Each from out his warm garage
O but Wendy, when the carpet
Yielded to my indoor pumps
There you stood, your gold hair streaming
Handsome in the hall light glеaming
There you looked and thеre you led me
Off into the game of Clumps
Then the new Victrola playing;
And your funny uncle saying
“Choose your partners for a foxtrot
Dance until it’s tea o’clock
Come on young ‘uns, foot it feetly.”
Was it chance that paired us neatly?
I who loved you so completely
You who pressed me closely to you
Hard against your party frock
“Meet me when you’ve finished eating.”
So we met and no one found us
O that dark and furry cupboard
While the rest played hide-and-seek
Holding hands our two hearts beating
In the bedroom silence round us
Holding hands and hardly hearing
Sudden footstep, thud and shriek
Love that lay too deep for kissing
“Where is Wendy? Wendy’s missing.”
Love so pure it had to end
Love so strong that I was frightened
When you gripped my fingers tight
And hugging, whispered “I’m your friend.”
Goodbye Wendy. Send the fairies
Pinewood elf and larch tree gnome
Spingle-spangled stars are peeping
At the lush Lagonda creeping
Down the winding ways of tarmac
To the leaded lights of home
There among the silver birches
All the bells of all the churches
Sounded in the bath-waste running
Out into the frosty air
Wendy speeded my undressing
Wendy is the sheet’s caressing
Wendy bending gives a blessing
Holds me as I drift to dreamland
Safe inside my slumber wear

Indoor Games Near Newbury – Terjemahan / Translation
Di antara birch perak
Cara berliku tarmac berkeliaran
Dan tanda -tanda untuk Bussock Bottom
Tussock Wood dan Windy Break
Pondok-pondok besar, gereja yang digantung ubin
Tangkap lampu lagonda kami
Saat kami berkendara ke pesta Wendy
Lemon Curd dan Kue Natal
Kaya buatan motor wirring
Melewati perkebunan pinus yang mendengkur
Datanglah Hupmobile Delage
Singkat cara perjalanan sopir kami
Berderak di atas kerikil pribadi
Masing -masing dari luar garasi hangatnya
O tapi Wendy, saat karpet
Dihasilkan ke pompa dalam ruangan saya
Di sana Anda berdiri, rambut emas Anda mengalir
Tampan di aula cahaya berkilau
Di sana Anda melihat dan Anda memimpin saya
Pergi ke permainan rumpun
Kemudian Victrola baru bermain;
Dan paman lucu Anda mengatakan
“Pilih mitra Anda untuk foxtrot
Menari sampai teh jam
Ayo muda ‘uns, kaki kaki. ”
Apakah kesempatan itu memasangkan kami dengan rapi?
Aku yang sangat mencintaimu
Anda yang menekan saya erat untuk Anda
Keras terhadap rok pesta Anda
“Temui aku saat sudah selesai makan.”
Jadi kami bertemu dan tidak ada yang menemukan kami
O lemari yang gelap dan berbulu itu
s#mentara sisanya bermain petak umpet
Memegang tangan kami berdetak kencang
Di kamar tidur diam di sekeliling kami
Berpegangan tangan dan hampir tidak mendengar
Tiba -tiba langkah kaki, bunyi gedebuk dan menjerit
Cinta yang terlalu dalam untuk berciuman
“Di mana Wendy? Wendy hilang.”
Cinta begitu murni itu harus berakhir
Cinta begitu kuat sehingga saya takut
Saat Anda mencengkeram jari saya dengan erat
Dan memeluk, berbisik, “Aku temanmu.”
Selamat tinggal Wendy. Kirim peri
Pinewood Elf dan Larch Tree Gnome
Bintang spingle-spangled mengintip
Di Lagonda yang subur merayap
Menurunkan cara berliku landasan
Ke lampu utama rumah
Ada di antara birch perak
Semua lonceng dari semua gereja
Terdengar di limbah mandi berjalan
Keluar ke udara dingin
Wendy mempercepat pakaian saya
Wendy adalah belaian lembar
Bending Wendy memberikan berkah
Memegang saya saat saya melayang ke Dreamland
Aman di dalam pakaian tidur saya
