| Serve for me, serve
|
| I am not the one who died yesterday.
|
| Of course he had a great life.
|
| Under the scorching sun of the yard,
|
| He, of course, lived not grieved,
|
| Didn't regret what he had.
|
| Serve for me, serve
|
| I didn't want to be them yesterday.
|
| From the place he let the horse gallop,
|
| Didn't spare his fists,
|
| Let now your centennial cry
|
| Wash away the sweetness of your sins.
|
| Now let your coat of arms be tribal
|
| They sew on mourning banners.
|
| He would be alive now, of course,
|
| If I believed in your honesty.
|
| But they threw him off his horse,
|
| Breaking the saddle girth
|
| The bowstring screamed, ringing,
|
| And an arrow fell under the heart...
|
| Order the throne room to be removed,
|
| Remember that he loved lilacs.
|
| Serve for me, serve
|
| I forgot it yesterday.
|
| I died yesterday for nothing,
|
| Died for thousands,
|
| And he climbed out of all his skins,
|
| And now I won't move my feet.
|
| Do not sleep in his bed,
|
| The cold is now icy.
|
| Serve for me, serve
|
| He died, and now I am different.
