В круге света [V kruge sveta] [English translation]

We don't know how many rounds we've passed,

We no longer remember the path :

For far too long and all as one we looked only forward.

We've built so many walls from the enemy,

That we ourselves are already locked up,

And the key to main gate is surely lost.

Since childhood we were taught to be the first in the world,

But we learnt to stand beside,

To vote raising up the hand without interrupting a sleep.

If everyone around say about peace,

It means that it all goes to war.

Too often spring ended with a new winter.

In the circle of light

We were born on the way.

In the circle of light.

Why cannot we find each other

In the circle of light ?

In silence, like in delirium, we forgot misfortune,

Maybe this is our misfortune:

How long we went to nowhere, assuring that we see the light.

We have built a very large ship,

It will stay here forever:

In 100 miles from the nearest sea and there's no road.

We learned so many rules

That we cannot start the game,

Hoping for tomorrow and not counting days.

Why we cannot clear the throats at last,

We have already unleashed our mouths ,

Only voice of yesterday's songs is stronger and more right...

In the circle of light

We were born on the way.

In the circle of light.

Why cannot we find each other

In the circle of light ?
