Она мечтает [свалить из СССР] [Ona mechtaet [svalit' iz SSSR]]] [English translation]

She isn’t fond of daylight,

out of principle, she doesn't read newspapers. 1

Everything is outside of her purview, 2

She dreams to break out of the USSR

She desires to meet the prince of a faraway land.

And she dreams of him day and night.

Even though each day feels like war

For the past 15 years she's been dreaming of him!

She takes the dogs out,

Her frequent trips to restaurants end like a war

She refuses to smoke and drink,

She casts her nets and waits patiently. 3

She doesn’t like to read books,

And yet she studies foreign language.

So what if she’s 35?

And she refuses to understand that her train out of here is long gone.

1. This is weird in English and this fixes contextual issues.2. She doesn’t conform to the norm3. I think it refers to her trying to lure people into helping her get out of the USSR
