Движение в сторону весны [Dvizhenie v storonu vesny] [English translation]

Some people tend to sing,

Some of them sing to get loss.

I thought I'd need to be accustomed for love,

But I had to get used to the sharpshooting.

I'll become a beautiful target for your sake;

Close your eyes and you'll see me as in dream;

What's to me that I was singing what I knew?

I'm starting to move towards the spring.

I will learn not to leave traces behind,

I'll learn to measure all what is near me:

The soil - by touch, the bread and wine - by taste,

And lips by means of my lips, the sky - by my star;

I don't already believe that there's something more;

The eyes behind the breech-sight are clear.

All get back! I make my first step,

I'm starting to move towards the spring.

Some people tend to drink the hard drinks,

But if you began, you must drink to the dregs.

And some people need a hero,

But if I'll become a hero, it's my fault;

Forgive me all what I did wrong:

My empty words, my presentiment of war;

My God! Save my soul,

I'm starting to move towards the spring.
