Звезда По Имени Солнце [Zvezda po imyeni Solntse] [English translation]

White snow, grey ice

On the mud cracks of the ground decay

Like a quilt is the city upon it

Stuck in the rope of the freeway

Empty clouds all over the town

Overshadowing the light from the sky

And the yellow smoke is coming down

On the town that’s two thousand years high

That went on under the light of the star

Called the Sunshine

Two thousand years - high at war

The war without any reason or the theme

The war is the business of the young -

The ultimate cure of saggy skin

Deep red, deep red blood

Is simply the soil in an hour

In two hours it has grass and flowers

In three hours - bears fruit of the glory and the power

And it’s warmed up with the tender rays of the star

Called the Sunshine

And forever since when it had begun

The cruel Fate loves the one who lives

By the law that never forgives -

The one who will die young

He has none of simply ”yes” or simply ”no”

He does not keep track of the ranks

He can easily reach for the stars

He will do it for a simple “Thanks!”

And is destined to fall down burnt by the star called the Sunshine
