A Distant Flute`s Weeping

A DISTANT FLUTE`S WEEPING
Music by Dis Pater, Lyrics by Mikhail Cherny

Somebody's tears
Not mine but dear
Seem to be near
but so far away
I close my eyes
And something gentle
Pours down my eyelids
and makes me sad
What is that voice
So frail and moving
Makes a delightful
impression on me
I know just one
Nothing can happen
While I`m hearing
the distant flute...

Get out of my way
You, my tiresome passions!
Stop tearing me to peaches
Don`t wear my soul out!
My lacerated feelings
Demand the revenge
So you better stand still
Cause I hear it again...

I won`t believe, I`d lose you
Anytime, if you fade
So please don`t be so cruel
And don`t stop to soothe my ear
And I will come the swallow
That is lighter then air
And sound of a distant flute
Will foretell my placid flight...
from perturbation
away from harm
my flight...
into the mirrors
for new dawn

I hear again
Mysterious sounds
Babbling of water
and whisper of lives
And through it all
I hear the music
Of low weeping
and jingling tears
Fill me with kindness
Give me affection
Deprive me
of thoughts of weaknesses
I know just one
Nothing can happen
While I`m hearing
the distant flute...
