In the taiga in winter, the canopy shines, but does not warm.
|
Like a turtle, my term crawls for years.
|
In twenty years I may not grow old,
|
Or maybe I'll get out earlier - maybe I'll get lucky.
|
My guitar cracked from the cold
|
And the heart wants to break into pieces,
|
After all, my friend Rosa is waiting for me out there -
|
I am suffocating without love and from longing.
|
Guitar with a cracked soundboard
|
Sings, laughs and cries,
|
And enchanted zeks
|
They eat their rations on the bunks.
|
Once I dumped into the taiga from a logging site,
|
But I was captured - they added five heels to me.
|
But I saw myself how the sun was rising,
|
And I saw myself how a flower bloomed in the taiga
|
I lie on the bunk and dream of freedom,
|
And freedom is as far away as the moon.
|
Oh, how many forgotten people are sitting here -
|
Everyone has rainbow dreams about freedom.
|
Guitar with a cracked soundboard
|
Sings, laughs and cries,
|
And enchanted zeks
|
They eat their rations on the bunks.
|
There is a guard near each barrack -
|
The trigger is cocked, the machine is at the ready.
|
In the evenings there are stabbings and fights,
|
And I dream of rolling off into the woods.
|
Today in the camp we met a leap year,
|
And I have four leap years ahead.
|
And even though it's not easy to run away from here, mama,
|
I'll run away anyway when it rains.
|
Guitar with a cracked soundboard
|
Sings, laughs and cries,
|
And enchanted zeks
|
They eat their rations on the bunks.
|
Guitar with a cracked soundboard
|
Sings, laughs and cries,
|
And enchanted zeks
|
On the bunk they eat up their rations,
|
They eat their rations on the bunks. |
