Покажите мне Москву [Pokazhite mne Moskvu] [English translation]

Show me Moscow, I plead

Maybe, I'll breathe in of its air

Show me Moscow, without guests

Cupolas and a half-darkness of the squares

Because I believe the hundreds of people,

That tell me about Moscow without any intrigues

Because amid of the empty gossips

There are Arbat1 and Donskoy Monastery2

[Refrain]

And if a rain spills out the waters of the Spring

I will be glad, I will be glad

Okudzhava3 will sing to us quietly here

Okhotny Ryad, Okhotny Ryad4

The Cat5 is roaming at the Patriarch's ponds5

And at the Khitrovka6 all wait of Gilyarovsky7

And in Stoleshnikov lane8 - just the trouble

A whole bunch of memories and thoughts.

But if it falled out for me to be a Petersburgian

Never Moscow becomes for me a native city

But I want to know Moscow and to love

Let show me , Moscowians , your city

[Refrain]

Show me Moscow, Moscowians

Well, show me Moscow, without adornments

We'll walk down on Moscow streets and we'll be silent

Because we won't have any words

And if a rain spills out the waters of the Spring

I will be glad, I will be glad

Okudzhava will sing to us quietly here

Okhotny Ryad, Okhotny Ryad

Okhotny Ryad, Okhotny Ryad
