| Святый боже, дай нам сил, сохрани нас и спаси
| Holy God, give us strength, save us and save
|
| От словец и от словца, от льстеца и хитреца,
| From the words and from the words, from the flatterer and the cunning one,
|
| И мудреца.
| And a sage.
|
| И на помощь не зови, ни в болезни, ни в любви,
| And do not call for help, neither in illness, nor in love,
|
| Чья тут боль и чья вина, но чашу горького вина
| Whose pain is here and whose fault, but a cup of bitter wine
|
| Испей до дна.
| Drink to the bottom.
|
| И на ложь, и на обман ты души не трать, скорбя,
| Don't waste your soul on lies and deceit, grieving,
|
| Верь - развеется туман, верь господь спасет тебя.
| Believe - the fog will disperse, believe the Lord will save you.
|
| Святый боже, сохрани от сатрапа и судьи,
| Holy God, save from the satrap and the judge,
|
| От доноса и прута, от петли и хомута,
| From a denunciation and a rod, from a loop and a clamp,
|
| И от кнута.
| And from the whip.
|
| И на ложь, и на обман ты души не трать, скорбя,
| Don't waste your soul on lies and deceit, grieving,
|
| Верь - развеется туман, верь господь спасет тебя.
| Believe - the fog will disperse, believe the Lord will save you.
|
| Святый боже, дай нам сил, сохрани нас и спаси,
| Holy God, give us strength, save us and save us,
|
| От кумиров и рабов, от пророков и гробов,
| From idols and slaves, from prophets and coffins,
|
| И дай нам кров.
| And give us shelter.
