Новый год [Novyy god] [English translation]

It lifted the leaves straight to the stars

It declared winter sooner or later

It called forth a new time1.

Chorus:

But with the first snow, and the white wind

Leaving us without answers,

So ruthlessly time sped away,

To start someone's life again.

It called forth childhood, with the summer and the flowers

It left in the heart a sail with islands

It did not want to, perhaps, part with us.

Chorus.

1. Lit. 'the time of the New Year'
