Is the English translation true to the original intent of the lyrics?

No, the literal translation goes like this...


"By the Long Road"

(We) rode on a three-horses carriage (troika) with sleigh bells,
And in the distance lights flickered.
If only I could follow you now
I would dispel the grief in my soul!

Refrain:

By the long road, in the moony night,
And with that song that flies far away, ringing,
And with that ancient, seven-stringed (meaning guitar),
That used to torment me by nights.
But it turned out our song was futile,
In vain we burned night after night .

If we have finished with the old,
Then those nights have also left us!
Out into our native land by new paths,
We have to go now!

...(WE) rode on a troika with sleigh bells,

But long since passed by!

I understand what it means. It's very moving. Thanks for explaining that, Barry.

Who knows?  Maybe Paul will sing both of those songs this time around.

Only a Master's? Seems like doctoral level work to me. But then we'd have to call him Dr. Dr. Barry.  ;)

Anyway, for those who won't make it to see Sir Paul, here is how the concert went the night I was there...

And at The Carrier Dome in Syracuse for you, Kelley.  Turn left at Greenland...I mean Otisco Lake.    ;)

Those are my old stomping grounds! I saw David Bowie and Eric Clapton there (April 7, 1990).

I wish we could both go, together! That would be such a blast. But I'll just have to be content watching Barry's video that night.  :)

I got an idea.  Both of you strongly hint for a Mother's Day present...a ticket to the Carrier Dome concert.  Then you, Kathleen, get in your car, drive east for a bit, turn left at Lake Michigan, pick up Kelley, drive east a bit more, turn left at Otisco Lake and enjoy the show.  That's all there is to it! 

Remember, if you want some fun take...

Well, I looked under the Mother's Day tree and no ticket.  :'( Maybe Kathy had better luck.
