Мой друг художник и поэт [Moj drug hudozhnik i poeht] [English translation]

My friend an artist and poet

On the rainy evening

He painted on the window my love

He opened for me a wonder on the earth

I sat silently by the window and enjoyed the silence

Since that time my love was by my side

And time was flowing like water

And I felt warm

When I was looking out the window on the rainy evening

But year after year I met sadness

In my love's eyes

A faint trace of rainy boredom

And suddenly my love has changed its colour

My love has changed its colour

The wonderful, bright day has gone

The night shadow is covering my love

The chatter of merry colours, the play of magic fire

My love doesn't bring me joy anymore

The delicate tints are faded

The height and depth have vanished

And there are no clear lines anymore

That's the portrait of indifference

My love looks eye to eye

But I am neither merry nor angry

The Earth's peace of non-coloured dreams

It shares the silence with me

And the inspired face will lose its good features

My love will die inside me in the end

And the sad raindrops will be rolling down the window

My love is crying silently walking away

And the rainbow of the past days

Will be covered by the dust of the coming years

And memories about her will lose its colour

A drawing is fading on the window

There is no hope to save it

But how can I give back to my love

A colour of joy?

But maybe I should break up the window

And plunge into another world?

Where an artist and poet is living

Painting the sunny world
