Кострома mon amour [Kostroma Mon Amour] [English translation]

I am fine unrewarded, fine without the crown;

Need no kisses from witches, I am settling down

Spring entices with sweetness; life without deceit

Oh, Samara, my sister…

In the Garden of Eden roam ravenous herds;

As unfaithful are plotting, holly water absolves…

Cutting heart into pieces, swan has entered my flow,

On the hill stands Vladimir, and Pokrov stands below.

Sun and clouds above me are consumed in a fight.

I am probably lucky, since to date I’ve survived;

Bird cries over the river, calls beloved to play.

Walls of white are around me, and the sadness of gray.

I am drunk as an angel, playing my paper horn;

When on black – I am holly, when on white – I am torn;

Aviator above us, unconcerned and removed…

Oh, Samara, my sister; Kostroma, mon amour…

I would love to live sober, with no hurry at all –

If I could, I’d release you, my perennial soul;

Storm the cockpit, my cronies; darkness force in detour …

Oh, Samara, my sister; Kostroma, mon amour…

I am fine with no crown, fine without reward

I feel sorry when barnyard settles next to the Lord;

Carvings over the doorway, and a lampshade demure…

Oh, Samara, my sister; Kostroma, mon amour…
