You won't believe me and you just won't understand -
|
It's scarier in space than even in Dante's hell!
|
Through space-time we are on a starship,
|
Like from a mountain on your own backside,
|
From Earth to Beta - eight days,
|
Well, as far as the planet Epsilon,
|
We do not count so as not to go crazy.
|
Eternity and longing - oh, how stuck!
|
We read Kipling by heart,
|
And all around is cosmic darkness.
|
On Earth read in science fiction novels
|
About the possibility of meeting with a foreign creature.
|
We on Earth have forgotten the ten torn commandments,
|
We do not care about all meetings with our neighbor!
|
From Earth to Beta - eight days,
|
Well, as far as the planet Epsilon,
|
We do not count so as not to go crazy.
|
Eternity and longing - oh, how stuck!
|
We read Kipling by heart,
|
And all around is cosmic darkness.
|
We were vaccinated against cheap tears and dreams,
|
From bad diseases and from rabid animals.
|
We don't give a damn about the explosions of all supernovas from space -
|
It used to be more fun on Earth!
|
From Earth to Beta - eight days,
|
Well, as far as the planet Epsilon,
|
We do not count so as not to go crazy.
|
Eternity and longing are toys for us!
|
We read Pushkin by heart,
|
And all around is cosmic darkness.
|
We will not see the former, earthly sky,
|
If you believe the tales of scientists eccentrics.
|
After all, when we return, according to all according to their laws
|
Seven hundred centuries will pass on Earth.
|
That is why laugh -
|
There is nothing to be afraid of on Earth!
|
There are no more prisons and palaces on Earth!
|
They trusted in God, the poor,
|
But now they found out - he is not
|
Now, forever and ever! |
