In a small village, in a house on the outskirts
|
The stove has been heated for a long time, and dinner is ready,
|
But the old owners are in no hurry to dine,
|
They are waiting for their beloved son, but he is still missing.
|
Year after year drags on, he does not return,
|
And the hearts of the parents were exhausted with longing.
|
On winter evenings he often dreams
|
That he will come to visit with his son and wife.
|
But only somewhere in the world
|
The boy is carried by a thief's fate.
|
Luck is crazy, a thieves tattoo,
|
Today - raspberries, and tomorrow - prison.
|
In spring, fragrant bird cherry blossoms,
|
And in the garden mother will stealthily cry.
|
He said, got a job, a clean job ...
|
But there is no news from my son for many years.
|
But only somewhere in the world
|
Raids are chasing a dashing thief.
|
Luck is crazy, a thieves tattoo,
|
Once again, at least live until morning.
|
And at night, a letter worn out
|
For the umpteenth time, my father will read again:
|
I will come to the holiday, my word is firm! |
-
|
I promise this for the tenth year.
|
But only somewhere in the world
|
His soul wanders restlessly
|
Luck is crazy, thieves tattoo
|
Didn't save him from a lead bullet.
|
In a small village, in a house on the outskirts
|
The stove has been heated for a long time, and dinner is ready,
|
The old owners are waiting for the son,
|
They hope to see each other, but he is not there.
|
But only somewhere, there on the edge of the world
|
The cross is leaning in the field.
|
The earth is damp, and no one will know
|
That he has been lying in this grave for a long time. |
