lyrics

ВАЛЬС

под робкие звуки довоенного вальса в такт телам колышутся свечи на столах опьяненных народов танцующих праздник до кончиков пяток пронизанных воздухом будущего

пыль городов усыпляемых звуками вальса в огнях догорающих клеточек окон оседая на спящих на дно и навечно хранит их застывшие отпечатки

не коснувшийся улиц тусклый свет фонарей растворяет стеклянные перегородки между между и между и тихо течет мимо улиц своих берегов не касаясь

убаюканный звуками вальса ведущего счет не ночам и не дням отдающий приказы жидкий воздух столетий колышет тени крошечных тел пламя ярких свечей за стеклом безвозвратных событий

WALTZ

To the timid sounds of prewar waltz
Candles are flickering to the beat of bodies
On the tables of besotted peoples
Which dance the festival to the tips of heels
Which are permeated with the air of the future

In lights of burning window cells
Dust of cities which lulled by waltz sounds
Settles on sleepers on the bottom
And forever keeps their frozen prints

Without touching the streets
Dim lantern light dissolves the glass partitions
Between, between and between…
And quietly flows through the streets
Without touching own shores

Liquid air of centuries is lulled by waltz sounds
Keeping count of neither nights nor days
Giving orders
Stirs the shadows of tiny bodies
Sways the bright candle lights
Beyond the glass of irretrievable events
