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

Snow is white and ice is grey,

And it covers a crooked land

Like a patched quilt does.

And the City strangled by roads in front.

And clouds over the City are

Stealing divine sunlight

And yellow smoke covers the City

Which is two thousand years old

All lived under the rays of

The Star we call Sun.

And it is rippled by wars over all those years,

Wars without a reason at all,

All wars that are for youngsters

Curing them from early wrinkles

And a blood so red, oh so red,

In an hour it’s turning into just earth,

In two hours it’s covered by flowers and grass,

In three hours it’s alive again

Basked in the rays of

The Star we call Sun.

And we know it’s been always like that,

And the Destiny favours those ones

Who all live by a different laws and

Who are doomed to die still so young

They forgot all words of “yes” and ”no”,

They forgot all sacred titles and names

And they are able to reach for the stars

Never thinking it could be a dream

And to fall burnt by the Star we call Sun.
