Зима [Zima] [English translation]

Far along the wide stream, off was sailing a boat

And the tail wind carried my song after you

I did wait and wait, never did take my eyes off

But the wide stretch froze, it froze all way through

But then winter came and the sky’s cold as ice

And my age flies on in the blizzard shroud

On my shoulder lies a braid turning blenched white

And my love won’t melt all this snow now.

Only snow of white – that’s what life became

And the ice won’t spout with life water springs

And a friend next door used to say to me

“That bright falcon of yours has forsaken thee”

Burns my splinter for rushlight, it’ll burn all down

Only blizzards spin my spindle day by day

And myself, I’m white as a white snow shroud

But I’ll wait for you, I’ll wait all the same

And myself, I’m white as a white death shroud

But I’ll wait for you, I’ll wait all the same
