Что такое осень [Chto takoye osen'] [English translation]

What is autumn? Maybe it’s a skyfall,

That is crying under every footstep.

In the pools and puddles here

Birds and clouds travell…

Autumn, lots of days passed since I met you

In the pools and puddles here

Birds and clouds travell…

Autumn, lots of days passed since I met you

Autumn, aircrafts rush through the sky,

Autumn, I’d like to sail or fly!

Where sorrow sinks deep at sea,

Autumn’s a faraway mist…

What is autumn? Maybe it’s the stones,

That are faithful to the Neva river?

Autumn just reminds my soul

What is most important,

And again I walk without stillness.

Autumn just reminds my soul

What is most important,

And again I walk without stillness.

Autumn, aircrafts rush through the sky,

Autumn, I’d like to sail or fly!

Where sorrow sinks deep at sea,

Autumn’s a faraway mist…

What is autumn? It’s a windy weather,

That is playing with a chain that’s broken.

Autumn, can you tell me

Whether we shall get an answer

What will be with Motherland tomorrow?

Autumn, can you tell us

Whether we‘ll survive till dawn time?

What will be with us in future mornings

Autumn, aircrafts rush through the sky,

Autumn, I’d like to sail or fly!

Where sorrow sinks deep at sea,

Autumn’s a faraway mist…

Autumn, aircrafts rush through the sky,

Autumn, I’d like to sail or fly!

Where sorrow sinks deep at sea,

Autumn’s a faraway mist…

That old city’s fading in murk

Autumn, what did I know at all?

While trees drop leaves and they can fly

Autumn is always right.
