Місто весни [Misto vesny] [English translation]

Why do I see in my dreams that once again

I am walking with you in my hometown Lviv

It smells like spring, and the sun sets

On the banks of a river that is not there**

And the lions look at you kindly

And cook wishes that smell like coffee

And there is plenty of room on the corner between hell and heaven

Everything that you cherish does not die easily in Lviv

E-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e

My city of springtime breathes

E-e-e-e-e-e-e-e

My city of springtime

A turbulent century is healing its wounds

Even before coming of age, everyone here is a veteran

The light-filled past is forgiving

For some reason I never want tea here

I don't want snow, I don't want glory

Let the churches with their banners have it

We'll just take a walk together

On the banks of a river that is not there

E-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e

My city of springtime breathes

E-e-e-e-e-e-e-e

My city of springtime

Why can't we forget about the downpours?

Maybe we are too vulnerable to be heroes

The walls and the lions won't allow us to

Scatter the ashes in which those dreams are still burning

Those dreams in which I am once again

Walking with you in my hometown Lviv

It smells like spring and the sun sets

On the banks of a river that has long been gone

E-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e

My city of springtime breathes

E-e-e-e-e-e-e-e

My city of springtime
