Чёрный цвет солнца [Chyornyi tsvet solntsa] [English translation]

All the rings will widen,

and the city will fall into darkness.

I’ve been looking at the calendar for the last 20 years,

and all this time it showed me only winter.

And the snowstorm doesn’t let us to sleep

and doesn’t let us finish the song

Feels like our hearts

are filled with paralytic gas

She had a rule – not to trust those,

who darken the light in her sight.

I took off her dress

and found a bulletproof vest under it.

When the music is over,

take a gun and wait till the cry of an owl.

I will come and be killed by love

to wake up alive in the morning.

If you can hear, if you can hear me

That means that the time is over,

and I’ve lost my chance to show you

The black color of the Sun.

The summer is gone and will never come back.

It’s autumn, drink the poisoned water from the well.

Winter’s going to be long, but we’ll be ok.

The black color of the Sun

Who will notice us? Who will smile?

Who will give us the dawn?

The black color of the Sun...

While on the platform, it’s hard to believe

that the trains are going somewhere.

Someone raised eyes at me,

and a star shed from them.

Separated by the lifeline, we look and see through the dream,

As a postman is carrying bad news to our home.

And his steps sound hollow

in the halls of blind darkness,

And wild flowers

grow in his footprints.

He is coming to tell you the truth,

watch the world fading away in the eyes,

As all these years we were drinking methyl spirit.

If you can hear, if you can hear me

That means that the time is over, and I’ve lost my chance to show you

The black color of the Sun.

The summer is gone and will never come back.

It’s autumn, drink the poisoned water from the well.

Winter’s going to be long, but we’ll be ok.

The black color of the Sun

Who will notice us? Who will smile?

Who will give us the dawn?

The black color of the Sun...

You can say that this song

is just a bunch of meaningless phrases,

you can make me keep silent

by saying “this is an order”,

you can shiver all mirrors,

which remember but lie,

But I know only one thing,

I know, that all rivers flow

Through the black color of the Sun.
