But the wolf-guards did not leave the trees (но волки-стражники не покидали

деревья). Maddened and angry (обезумевшие и рассерженные) they were

leaping and howling round the trunks (они подпрыгивали и завывали вокруг

стволов деревьев), and cursing the dwarves (и проклинали гоблинов) in their

horrible language (на своем ужасном языке), with their tongues hanging out (их

языки /были при этом/ высунуты), and their eyes shining as red and fierce as the

flames (и их глаза светились таким же красным /светом/ и такой же

свирепостью, как и пламя). Then suddenly goblins came running up yelling

(затем внезапно появились гоблины, которые бежали и пронзительно

кричали). They thought a battle with the woodmen was going on (они думали,

что идет битва с лесорубами); but they soon learned what had really happened

(но они вскоре поняли, что же произошло на самом деле; to learn — изучать,

учить). Some of them actually sat down and laughed (некоторые из них даже

сели и захохотали). Others waved their spears (другие замахали своими

копьями) and clashed the shafts (и забряцали древками) against their shields (о

свои щиты). Goblins are not afraid of fire (гоблины не боятся огня), and they

soon had a plan (и вскоре у них был план) which seemed to them most amusing

(который им показался очень забавным; to amuse — забавлять). Some got all

the wolves together in a pack (некоторые из них собрали всех волков в одну

стаю). Some stacked fern (некоторые сложили в кучи папоротник) and

brushwood (и валежник) round the tree-trunks (вокруг стволов деревьев). Others

rushed round (другие разбежались вокруг) and stamped and beat (и топали

ногами и стучали), and beat and stamped (и хлопали и топали), until nearly all

the flames were put out (до тех пор, пока все пламя не было потушено) — but

they did not put out the fire (но они не затушили тот огонь) nearest to the trees

(который был ближе всего к деревьям) where the dwarves were (где были

гномы).

That fire they fed with leaves (этот огонь они поддерживали листьями; to feed

(fed) — кормить, давать пищу) and dead branches and bracken (и сухими

ветвями и папоротником). Soon they had a ring of smoke and flame (вскоре они

создали кольцо из дыма и огня) all round the dwarves (вокруг гномов), a ring

which they kept from spreading outwards (кольцо, которому они не позволяли

распространяться дальше наружу; to keep (kept) — держать, хранить,

беречь); but it closed slowly in (но оно медленно обступало /деревья/), till the

running fire was licking the fuel (до тех пор, пока беглый огонь начал лизать

топливо) piled under the trees (сваленное в кучи под деревьями). Smoke was in

Bilbo’s eyes (дым стоял в глазах Бильбо), he could feel the heat of the flames

(он мог чувствовать жар пламени); and through the reek he could see the goblins

(и сквозь дым и копоть он мог видеть гоблинов) dancing round and round in a

circle (танцующих в кругу) like people round a midsummer bonfire (подобно

людям, /танцующим/ вокруг костра /в честь/ летнего солнцестояния). Outside

the ring of dancing warriors (за пределами кольца танцующих воинов) with

spears and axes (с копьями и секирами) stood the wolves at a respectful distance

(стояли волки на почтительном расстоянии), watching and waiting (наблюдая

и выжидая).

He could hear the goblins beginning a horrible song (он мог слышать, как

гоблины затянули: «начали» ужасную песню):

 

Fifteen birds in five firtrees (пятнадцать птичек на пяти елях /сидели/),

their feathers were fanned in a fiery breeze (их перья развивались на огненном

ветерке)!

But, funny little birds (но, забавные мелкие пташки), they had no wings (нет у

них крыльев)!

O what shall we do (о, что же нам сделать) with the funny little things (с

забавными малютками)?

Roast ‘em alive (зажарить /на гриле/ их живьем; ‘em = them), or stew them in

a pot (или потушим их в кастрюле),

fry them (зажарим их), boil them (сварим их) and eat them hot (и съедим их

горячими)?

 

Then they stopped (затем они остановились) and shouted out (и закричали):

“Fly away little birds (улетайте, маленькие пташки)! Fly away if you can

(улетайте, если сможете)! Come down little birds (спускайтесь, маленькие

птички), or you will get roasted in your nests (или вы зажаритесь в своих

Then they stopped and shouted out: “Fly away little birds! Fly away if you

can! Come down little birds, or you will get roasted in your nests! Sing, sing

little birds! Why don’t you sing?”

 

“Go away (убирайтесь)! little boys (мальчишки)!” shouted Gandalf in answer

(закричал Гэндальф в ответ). “It isn’t bird-nesting time (сейчас не время

охотиться за птичьими гнездами; nest — гнездо). Also naughty little boys (а

это, чтобы разозлить их), and to show them (и чтобы показать им) he was not

frightened of them (что он не боялся их) — though of course he was (хотя,

конечно же, он был испуган), wizard though he was (хотя он и был

they went on singing (и они продолжали петь).

And with that Ya hoy! (и с тем "я-хой") the flames were under Gandalf’s tree

(пламя оказалось под деревом Гэндальфа). In a moment it spread to the others

(в момент оно распространилось и на другие). The bark caught fire (кора

загорелась), the lower branches cracked (и нижние ветви затрещали). Then

Gandalf climbed to the top of his tree (тогда Гэндальф взобрался на вершину

своего дерева). The sudden splendour flashed from his wand (затем внезапное

сверкание блеснуло от его жезла) like lightning (подобно молнии), as he got

ready (так как он приготовился) to spring down from on high (спрыгнуть вниз,

с высоты) right among the spears of the goblins (прямо на копья гоблинов). That

would have been the end of him (это было бы его концом), though he would

probably have killed (хотя, он возможно, убил бы) many of them (многих из

них) as he came hurtling down (когда он бросился бы стремительно вниз) like a

thunderbolt (как удар молнии). But he never leaped (но от не успел прыгнуть).

Just at that moment (как раз в этот момент) the Lord of the Eagles swept down

from above (Повелитель Орлов, камнем бросился вниз с высоты), seized him

in his talons (схватил его в свои когти), and was gone (и был таков: «был

And with that Ya hoy! the flames were under Gandalf’s tree. In a moment it

Spread to the others. The bark caught fire, the lower branches cracked. Then

Gandalf climbed to the top of his tree. The sudden splendour flashed from his

Wand like lightning, as he got ready to spring down from on high right among

Would probably have killed many of them as he came hurtling down like a

Thunderbolt. But he never leaped.

Just at that moment the Lord of the Eagles swept down from above, seized

Him in his talons, and was gone.

 

There was a howl of anger and surprise (вопль гнева и удивления раздался)

from the goblins (от гоблинов). Loud cried the Lord of the Eagles (громко

закричал и Повелитель Орлов), to whom Gandalf had now spoken (с которым

уже переговорил Гэндальф). Back swept the great birds that were with him

(устремились назад большие птицы, что были с ним; to sweep — мести;

нестись, мчаться, проноситься), and down they came (и вниз) like huge black

shadows (как огромные черные тени). The wolves yammered and gnashed their

teeth (волки завыли и заскрежетали зубами); the goblins yelled and stamped

with rage (гоблины завопили и затопали ногами от ярости), and flung their

heavy spears in the air in vain (и побросали свои тяжелые копья в воздух, все

тщетно; to fling — бросать, метать, кидать, швырять, запускать). Over

them swooped the eagles (над ними внезапно налетели орлы); the dark rush of

their beating wings (напором своих темных бьющих крыльев) smote them to the

floor (прибивали их к земле; to smite (smote, smitten) — ударять, бить;

хлопать; шлепать) or drove them far away (или изгоняли их далеко); their

talons tore at goblin faces (их длинные когти рвали физиономии гоблинов; to

tear). Other birds flew to the tree-tops (другие птицы полетели к верхушкам

деревьев) and seized the dwarves (и схватили гномов; to seize), who were

scrambling up now as far as ever they dared to go (которые теперь

вскарабкались уже так высоко, как только осмелились).

Poor little Bilbo (бедного маленького Бильбо) was very nearly left behind

again (почти что не позабыли снова)! He just managed to catch hold of Dori’s

legs (ему как раз удалось ухватиться за ноги Дори), as Dori was borne off last

of all (так как Дори был унесен /орлом/ самым последним из всех; to bear

(bore, borne) off — уносить, отклоняться, отваливать); and they went

воздухе) with his arms nearly breaking (и его руки чуть не поломались).

Now far below (теперь, далеко внизу) the goblins and the wolves were

scattering far and wide in the woods (гоблины и волки рассыпались по всем

лесам; far and wide — широко, повсюду: «далеко и широко»). A few eagles

were still circling (несколько орлов все еще кружили; circle — круг; to circle —

кружить) and sweeping above the battle-ground (и носились над полем битвы).

The flames about the trees (пламя на деревьях) sprang suddenly up (внезапно

взметнулось: «подпрыгнуло»; to spring) above the highest branches (над

самыми высокими ветвями). They went up in crackling fire (и они занялись

потрескивающим огнем). There was a sudden flurry of sparks and smoke

(внезапно образовался шквал искр и дыма). Bilbo had escaped only just in time

(Бильбо спасся как раз во время)!

Poor little Bilbo was very nearly left behind again! He just managed to catch

Soon the light of the burning was faint below (вскоре свет от пожара стал

тусклым /и остался/ внизу), a red twinkle on the black floor (красным огоньком

на черной поверхности; floor — пол; дно); and they were high up in the sky (и

sweeping circles (сильными стремительными кругами). Bilbo never forgot that

flight (Бильбо никогда не забыл этот полет), clinging onto Dori’s ankles (когда

он вцепился в лодыжки Дори).

He moaned (он стонал) “my arms (мои руки), my arms!”; but Dori groaned (а

Дори стонал) “my poor legs (мои бедные ноги), my poor legs!”

At the best of times (в лучшие времена) heights made Bilbo giddy (от высоты у

Бильбо кружилась голова). He used to turn queer (ему обычно становилось

дурно; to turn + прилагательное = становиться, делаться) if he looked over

the edge of quite a little cliff (если он смотрел через край совершенно

маленького утеса); and he had never liked ladders (и ему никогда не нравились

лестницы), let alone trees (не говоря уже о деревьях) (never having had to

escape from wolves before (/ведь/ ему никогда раньше не приходилось убегать

от волков)). So you can imagine (и так вы можете себе представить) how his

head swam now (как его голова шла кругом: «плыла» сейчас; to swim), when he

looked down between his dangling toes (когда он смотрел вниз, между своих

болтающихся носков; to dangle) and saw the dark lands (и видел темные земли)

opening wide underneath him (широко открывавшиеся под ним), touched here

and there with the light of the moon (тронутые здесь и там светом луны) on a

hill-side rock (на горной породе на холме) or a stream in the plains (или в

потоке на равнинах).

Imagine how his head swam now, when he looked down between his dangling

Toes and saw the dark lands opening wide underneath him, touched here and

The pale peaks of the mountains were coming nearer (бледные пики гор

приближались), moonlit spikes of rock sticking out of black shadows (залитые

лунным светом острые выступы скалы выделялись на фоне черных теней; to

stick — втыкать; to stick out — высовывать(ся); торчать). Summer or not

(хотя и было лето: «лето или нет»), it seemed very cold (казалось, что очень

холодно). He shut his eyes (он закрыл /свои/ глаза) and wondered (и задумался)

if he could hold on any longer (сможет ли он продержаться /хоть сколько-

нибудь/ дольше). Then he imagined (затем он представил) what would happen

(что произойдет) if he did not (если он не сможет). He felt sick (он

почувствовал тошноту). The flight ended only just in time for him (для него

полет окончился как раз во время), just before his arms gave way (как раз перед

тем, как его руки не выдержали; to give (gave, given) way — отступать,

сдаваться, поддаваться). He loosed Dori’s ankles with a gasp (он отпустил

лодыжки Дори с приглушенным стоном; gasp — затрудненное дыхание;

удушье) and fell onto the rough platform (и упал на жесткую площадку) of an

eagle’s eyrie (орлиного гнезда; eyrie = aerie — гнездо хищной птицы;

особенно орлиное гнездо). There he lay without speaking (там он и лежал

молча: «не разговаривая»), and his thoughts were a mixture (и его мысли

представляли собой смесь) of surprise at being saved from the fire (удивления

от того, что он был спасен от огня; to save — спасать), and fear lest he fell off

that narrow place (и страха, как бы не упасть с этого узкого места) into the deep

shadows (в те глубокие тени) on either side (с каждой стороны). He was feeling

very queer indeed in his head (в его голове все действительно перемешалось:

«он чувствовал очень странно на самом деле в голове») by this time (к тому

времени) after the dreadful adventures of the last three days (после тех ужасных

приключений последний трех дней) with next to nothing to eat (/и от того/, что

он почти ничего не ел), and he found himself saying aloud (и, неожиданно для

себя, он, оказалось, сказал вслух): “Now I know what a piece of bacon feels like

(теперь я знаю, как чувствует себя кусок бекона) when it is suddenly picked out

of the pan on a fork (когда его внезапно подцепляют со сковородки на вилке)

The pale peaks of the mountains were coming nearer, moonlit spikes of rock

Sticking out of black shadows. Summer or not, it seemed very cold. He shut

His eyes and wondered if he could hold on any longer. Then he imagined what

Would happen if he did not. He felt sick. The flight ended only just in time for

Dreadful adventures of the last three days with next to nothing to eat, and he

found himself saying aloud: “Now I know what a piece of bacon feels like

when it is suddenly picked out of the pan on a fork and put back on the shelf!”

 

“No you don’t (нет, не знаете)!” be heard Dori answering (услышал он ответ

Дори), “because the bacon knows (потому, что бекон знает) that it will get back

in the pan (что он вернется на сковородку) sooner or later (раньше или позже);

and it is to be hoped we shan’t (а этого, будем надеяться, с нами не случится).

anxiously at the eagle (и с волнением глядя на орла) who was perched close by

(который взгромоздился совсем рядом). He wondered what other nonsense he

had been saying (он задумался, какую же еще чепуху он наговорил), and if the

eagle would think it rude (и подумает ли орел, что это было грубо). You ought

not to be rude to an eagle (не следует грубить орлу), when you are only the size

of a hobbit (когда ты всего размером с хоббита), and are up in his eyrie at night

(и высоко, в его гнезде, и ночью)!

The eagle only sharpened his beak on a stone (орел же только поточил свой

клюв о камень) and trimmed his feathers (и поправил свои перья) and took no

notice (и не обратил внимания).

“No you don’t!” be heard Dori answering, “because the bacon knows that it

“O no! Not a bit like storks-forks, I mean,” said Bilbo sitting up and looking

Soon another eagle flew up (вскоре подлетел другой орел).

“The Lord of the Eagles bids you (Повелитель Орлов приказывает тебе) to

bring your prisoners to the Great Shelf (принести своих пленников на Большой

Выступ),” he cried and was off again (прокричал он и снова улетел). The other

seized Dori in his claws (другой /орел/ схватил Дори в свои когти) and flew

away with him into the night (и улетел с ним в ночь) leaving Bilbo all alone

‘prisoners’ (что посланник имел в виду под "пленниками"), and to begin to

think of being torn up for supper like a rabbit (и начал думать о том, что его

разорвут на ужин, как кролика), when his own turn came (когда придет его

очередь). The eagle came back (орел вернулся), seized him in his talons (схватил

его своими когтями) by the back of his coat (за спинку его куртки), and

swooped off (и полетел). This time he flew only a short way (на этот раз он

пролетел только короткий путь). Very soon Bilbo was laid down (очень скоро

Бильбо положили: «был положен»), trembling with fear (дрожащего от

страха), on a wide shelf of rock on the mountain-side (на широкий выступ скалы

на горном склоне). There was no path down on to it (к нему не было /другого/

пути) save by flying (только как по воздуху); and no path down off it (и

никакого пути вниз с него) except by jumping over a precipice (за исключением

прыжка в пропасть). There he found all the others (там он обнаружил всех

остальных) sitting with their backs to the mountain wall (сидящих спинами к

горной стене). The Lord of the Eagles also was there (Повелитель Орлов тоже

был там) and was speaking to Gandalf (и разговаривал с Гэндальфом).

Their backs to the mountain wall. The Lord of the Eagles also was there and

Was speaking to Gandalf.

 

It seemed (казалось) that Bilbo was not going to be eaten (что Бильбо все таки

никто не собирался съесть) after all (несмотря ни на что). The wizard and the

eagle-lord appeared to know one another slightly (волшебник и Повелитель

орлов, казалось, слегка знали друг друга; to appear — появляться,

производить впечатление), and even to be on friendly terms (и даже были в

дружеских отношениях). As a matter of fact (на самом-то деле) Gandalf, who

had often been in the mountains (Гэндальф, который часто бывал в горах), had

once rendered a service to the eagles (однажды оказал услугу орлам) and healed

their lord (и излечил их повелителя) from an arrow-wound (от раны,

нанесенной стрелой; arrow — стрела). So you see ‘prisoners’ had meant (так

что вы видите, что "пленники" означало) ‘prisoners rescued from the goblins’

only (только "пленники, спасенные от гоблинов"), and not captives of the

eagles (а не пленников орлов). As Bilbo listened to the talk of Gandalf (когда

Бильбо слушал разговор Гэндальфа) he realized that at last (он понял, что

наконец) they were going to escape really and truly (что они спасутся в

действительности и по-настоящему) from the dreadful mountains (из этих

ужасных гор). He was discussing plans with the Great Eagle (он обсуждал

планы с Великим Орлом) for carrying the dwarves and himself and Bilbo far

away (о том, что бы унести гномов и его самого и Бильбо как можно дальше)

and setting them down well on their journey (и ссадить их, чтобы они

продолжили свое путешествие) across the plains below (через равнины внизу).

Realized that at last they were going to escape really and truly from the

Well on their journey across the plains below.

 

The Lord of the Eagles would not take them anywhere (Повелитель Орлов не

хотел нести их никуда) near where men lived (где поблизости жили люди).

“They would shoot at us (они будут стрелять в нас) with their great bows of

yew (из своих огромных луков из тисового дерева),” he said, “for they would

think (так как они подумают) we were after their sheep (что мы охотимся за их

овцами). And at other times (и в другой раз) they would be right (они были бы

правы). No! we are glad to cheat the goblins of their sport (мы готовы обмануть

гоблинов и отнять их добычу; sport — охота; забава), and glad to repay our

thanks to you (и рады отблагодарить вас; to repay — возвращать, отдавать,

оплачивать), but we will not risk ourselves (но мы не будем рисковать собой)

for dwarves (ради гномов) in the southward plains (/полетев к/ южным

равнинам).”

“Very well (очень хорошо),” said Gandalf. “Take us where and as far as you

will (тогда отнесите нас туда и так далеко, как вы сами пожелаете)! We are

already deeply obliged to you (мы уже и так многим вам обязаны; deeply —

глубоко, серьезно; to oblige — обязывать; делать одолжение, угождать).

But in the meantime (а между тем) we are famished with hunger (мы умираем с

голоду; to famish — голодать; страдать от голода, испытывать голод;

умирать от голода).”

“I am nearly dead of it (я почти что умер от него),” said Bilbo in a weak little

voice (сказал Бильбо слабым голоском) that nobody heard (который никто не

услышал).
