Я ехал по темному пустынному шоссе,
Прохладный ветер трепал мои волосы,
Теплый аромат colitas
Разливался в воздухе.
Вдали перед собой
Я увидел мерцающие огоньки.
Голова моя отяжелела,
Глаза слипались,
Нужно было остановиться на ночь.

Она стояла в дверях.
Я услышал звон церковного колокола,
И подумал про себя:
Это место может оказаться Раем
Или Адом.
Она зажгла свечу
И пошла вперед, показывая мне дорогу.
Я услышал голоса в коридоре,
Мне показалось, они говорили:

Добро пожаловать в отель "Калифорния"
Такое милое место
Такое милое место
Такое милое лицо.
В отеле "Калифорния" хватает комнат

В любое время года
(В любое время года)
Можете здесь остановиться.

У нее на уме только "Тиффани",
Она ездит на "Мерседесе",
Вокруг нее толпа милых мальчиков,
Которых она зовет друзьями.
Как они танцуют у нее во дворе
В сладкой летней испарине,
Одни танцуют, чтобы вспомнить,
Другие - чтобы забыть.

Я обратился к метрдотелю:
"Будьте любезны, принесите мне вина"
Он ответил, "Ничего подобного у нас и в
помине не было с 1969-го."
И эти голоса всё
Звучат и звучат издалека.
Они не дают тебе уснуть ночью,
И ты слышишь, как они говорят:

Добро пожаловать в отель "Калифорния"
Такое милое место
Такое милое место
Такое милое личико.
Здесь все так мило живут,
В этом отеле "Калифорния"
Какой приятный сюрприз
(Какой приятный сюрприз)
У тебя есть алиби?

Зеркальные потолки,
Розовое шампанское на льду,
И она произносит: "Мы все здесь пленники
Нашей собственной затеи".
В покоях хозяина
Всё готово для пира.
Они бьют своими стальными ножами,
Но убить чудовище не в их силах.

Последнее, что я помню,
Это как я бежал к двери,
Я должен был вырваться оттуда,
И вернуться на своё шоссе.
"Не спеши" - сказал мне портье -
"Мы здесь только принимаем:
Выписаться ты можешь, когда пожелаешь,
Только вырваться отсюда тебе не удастся"…

On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw the shimmering light
My head grew heavy
And my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself:
This could be Heaven or
This could be Hell
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
Thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
There's plenty of rooms in the Hotel
California
Any time of year
(Any time of year)
You can find them here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
She's got the Mercedes Benz
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget

So I called up the captain
"Please, bring me my wine"
He said, "We haven't had that spirit here
since 1969".
And still those voices
Are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They're livin' it up
At the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
(What a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said "We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device".
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember
I was running for the door
And I had to find the pas

I was driving on a dark deserted highway,
The cool wind ruffled my hair,
The warm aroma of colitas
Spread in the air.
Away in front of him
I saw flickering lights.
My head was heavy,
And lie,
Had to stop for the night.

She stood in the doorway.
I heard the ringing of Church bells,
And thought to myself:
This place could be Paradise
Or Hell.
She lit a candle
And went ahead, showing me the way.
I heard voices in the hallway,
I thought they were saying:

Welcome to the hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place
Such a cute face.
The hotel California is enough room

At any time of the year
(In any season)
Can pause here.

In her mind only "Tiffany",
She goes by "Mercedes"
Around her the crowd of cute boys,
Whom she calls friends.
As they dance in her yard
In the sweet summer sweat,
Some dance to remember,
Other - to forget.

I asked the head waiter:
"Please bring me my wine"
He replied, "Nothing of the kind we have in
was no trace since 1969."
And these voices all
Sound and sound from afar.
They do not give you sleep at night
And you can hear them say:

Welcome to the hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place
Such a pretty face.
Everything here is so cute live
This the hotel California
What a pleasant surprise
(What a nice surprise)
Do you have an alibi?

Mirrored ceilings,
Pink champagne on ice,
And she says: "We are all prisoners here
Our own venture."
In the chambers of the master
All ready for the feast.
They stab with their steely knives,
But killing the beast is not in their power.

The last thing I remember
This is how I ran to the door,
I had to get out,
And back on the highway.
"Take your time" said me porter -
"We can only accept:
To check you can when you wish,
Just get out, you will fail"...

On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw the shimmering light
My head grew heavy
And my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
