Tjomnaja Noch
temnaya noch', tol'ko puli svistyat po stepi
tol'ko veter gudit v provodakh, tusklo zvezdy mertsayut
v temnuyu noch' ty lyubimaya znayu ne spish'
i u detskoy krovatki taykom ty slezu utiraesh'
kak ya lyublyu glubinu tvoikh laskovykh glaz
kak ya khochu k nim prizhat'sya teper' gubami
temnaya noch' razdelyaet, lyubimaya, nas
i trevozhnaya chernaya step' prolegla mezhdu nami
veryu v tebya, v doroguyu podrugu moyu
eta vera ot puli menya temnoy noch'yu khranila
radostno mne, ya spokoen v smertel'nom boyu
znayu, vstretysh' s lyubov'yu menya, chto b so mnoy ni sluchilos'
smert' ne strashna, s ney vstrechalys ne raz my v stepi
vot i teper' nado mnoyu ona kruzhitsya
ty menya zhdyosh', i u detskoy krovatki ne spish'
i poetomu, znayu, so mnoy nichego ne sluchitsya
Dark Night
It's a dark night, just puli whistling along the steps
Only the wind hums in the wires, the dim stars die away
In the dark night you, my beloved, know I don't sleep
I'm in a baby's crib and you're crying
how I love the depth of your gentle eyes
How do I want to press my lips to him now?
The dark night divides, beloved, us
and an alarming black step passed between us
very much to you, my dear friend
This faith from the bullets kept me in the dark night
I am happy, I am calm in the deathbed boy
I know, I love you, that I am not happy with you
Death is not scary, it does not strike me in my steps
vot and now I need it, it's spinning
You're crying, I can't sleep in the baby's crib
I know, poetically, that I don’t like the niche
