| Where life creeps in circles, in the city alone.
|
| A grandmother lived with her grandson, a nice boy.
|
| Someone once put a letter to them in the mail.
|
| Crumpled leaf. |
| Simple lines. |
| Someone else's handwriting.
|
| Chorus:
|
| I beg you, son, forgive me! |
| For my drunken nights, don't execute me!
|
| And now there is only a little in my soul, I have warmth left, my dear,
|
| don't curse me!
|
| Everything in life was different at the age of nineteen.
|
| There are no restaurants, money, cars and worries.
|
| It's so easy to run away from home, to leave the baby.
|
| And now everything is different and the soul screams.
|
| Chorus:
|
| I beg you, son, forgive me! |
| For my drunken nights, don't execute me!
|
| And now there is only a little in my soul, I have warmth left, my dear,
|
| don't curse me!
|
| Grandma read the letter without a tear.
|
| A face twitched above the patchwork coverlet.
|
| There, the swirling boy slept quietly in the night
|
| And these lines burned in the candle flame...
|
| And in the far North, with a cross in hand,
|
| At the hospital, the boy's mother was quietly fading.
|
| Everything was rushing somewhere, to run in delirium
|
| And again the words escaped from parched lips.
|
| Chorus:
|
| I beg you, son, forgive me! |
| For my drunken nights, don't execute me!
|
| And now there is only a little in my soul, I have warmth left, my dear,
|
| don't curse me!
|
| I beg you, son, forgive me! |
| For my drunken nights, don't execute me!
|
| And now there is only a little in my soul, I have warmth left, my dear,
|
| don't curse me!
|
| My dear, do not curse me!
|
| Son, forgive me! |
