— What is this field?
|
- I don't know, my ataman.
|
- And what kind of city is this?
|
“The devil knows, my ataman.
|
— What kind of people are these?
|
“Death, my ataman.
|
A tear danced on the saber, and the hussar uniform
|
All in seeds, like the farms of Little Russia.
|
"Ivanhoe" unshaven lads read to holes,
|
The snoring of horses, ants in the grass, and wasps.
|
Chorus:
|
You do not write to me about love, because the heart burns with a memory.
|
All our childhood suffering is bathed in blood by fate.
|
A tight thread has broken, our holiday is so similar to mourning.
|
And in the labyrinths of the Minotaur we are forever destined to wander.
|
And the devil pulled me to be born in Russia!
|
Now we servile, then we quietly rebel, talkers, yes thieves,
|
Now we repent, now we whip each other with all our strength,
|
Either we solve world problems, or we steal linen.
|
Chorus:
|
You do not write to me about love, because the heart burns with a memory.
|
All our childhood suffering is bathed in blood by fate.
|
A tight thread has broken, our holiday is so similar to mourning.
|
And in the labyrinths of the Minotaur we are forever destined to wander.
|
Vile civil massacre without rules and bribes.
|
Roulette is spinning, but the ball will come to zero.
|
For the Motherland they remove a handful, for freedom - a dozen,
|
And the rest is war, for whom.
|
Chorus:
|
You do not write to me about love, because the heart burns with a memory.
|
All our childhood suffering is bathed in blood by fate.
|
A tight thread has broken, our holiday is so similar to mourning.
|
And in the labyrinths of the Minotaur we are forever destined to wander.
|
A tear danced on the saber, and the hussar uniform
|
All in seeds, like the farms of Little Russia.
|
"Ivanhoe" unshaven lads read to holes,
|
The snoring of horses, ants in the grass, and wasps. |
