Последний герой [Posledniyi geroyi] [English translation]

The night is short, the goal is far away.

So often you feel thirsty at night.

You go to the kitchen,

but the water here is bitter.

You cannot sleep here,

you don't want to live here.

Good morning, last hero!

Good morning to you and those like you!

Good morning, last hero!

Hello, last hero!

You wanted to be alone, but the feeling1 passed soon.

You wanted to be alone, but could not be alone.

Your burden is light, but your hand grows numb.

And you greet the dawn playing Durak.2

Good morning, last hero!

Good morning to you and those like you!

Good morning, last hero!

Hello, last hero!

In the morning you wish to get away fast.

A phone call, like the command "Forward!"

You are going to a place where you don't want to go,

you are going thither, but no one waits for you there!

Good morning, last hero!

Good morning to you and those like you!

Good morning, last hero!

Hello, last hero!
