Ты Знаешь, Так Хочется Жить [Ty Znaesh, Tak Hochetsya zhit'] [English translation]

You know, that's how I'd like to live

To savour the crimson sunrise

To live in order to simply love

Everyone who lives near you.

You know, that's how I'd like to live

To wake up with you at dawn

To take up and make coffee

While everyone in the world is still sleeping.

You know, that's how I'd like to live

Like no-one would write in a newspaper

To take up and give everything away

To live for the children to remember.

You know, that's how I'd like to live

At the moment when it presses down on you

To take up and announce to everyone:

"I'll be back, even if I'm finished off."

You know, that's how I'd like to live

At the moment that is fateful

To forget all that is bad, to forgive everyone

Only forgiveness - is salvation, I know.

You know, that's how a cherry

Sleeping in a winter garden would like to live

In order to blossom in spring

Into a tree for a new life.
