Ты нужна мне [Ty nuzhna mne] [English translation]

I do need you. What else to ask?

I do need you. This is all that I’m allowed to know.

Morning will not wake me up;

Night will not send to bed.

And how could I believe that it’s possibly going to end?

You’re my heart, I do need you:

Rain for the parched arid lands.

I do need you:

The dawn that precedes a surprise.

It was cut in the palms of our hands;

It is told by the stars in the skies.

That’s how it is accustomed with us:

Without a name, without justification.

Yet, if not for you,

Night would remain a dark empty void;

If not for you, this ash would transform into ash.

And when the approaching dawn

Reflects in the vertical pupils of yours,

The one, who will be closing my eyes,

Will read in them over and over:

I do need you…

…You surrounded me with a wall,

You have stomped a trail through my self as if through the field,

And above this field is a star:

A star of no reason.
