lyrics

ЗИМА

Мокрая бабочка летала по дому.
Шевелила руками усталые мысли.
Глаза опустелые о зеркала спотыкались
и брызгали острыми скользкими искрами.
Мокрое дерево стучало в окно,
бабочку дохлую выманивая из меня.
Прирастая к стеклу отражения,
двигалось длинное белое облако.

Молоко заливает поля.
Всё. Всё тонет в молоке.

Наступила зима.

---

WINTER (pidgin-version)

A wet butterfly flew around the house and wiggled by hands tired thoughts.
The emptied eyes stumbled of the mirrors and splashed with sharp, slippery sparks.

A wet tree knocked in the window, luring out of me the dead butterfly.
A long white cloud moved, growing to a glass reflection.

Milk floods the fields.
Everything. Everything is drowning in milk.

Winter came.
