Кардиограмма [Kardiogramma] [English translation]

Nightingales started to sing too loud,

New words appeared out of the blue.

I’m under the impression that someone took hold of my heart,

Sometimes I think it must have been you.

Lips forgotten how to form a smile;

The face got blurred, only lines remain true;

And something good is happening to my heart;

And you know, I think it must have been you.

From the fifth rig to the Church of the Intercession on Nerl

Everything looks fine, but something damaged the thread;

I don’t know how it is there, but at our place they are always drilling.

Maybe we should chip in, so they would stop to drill overhead?

At night in the yard trucks were unloaded,

From these profane cries all shrubs dried and lost their hue.

I even didn’t notice that someone took hold of my heart,

And I suspect it must have been you.

In my blood there is a mix of nitrotoluene and a myrrh resin;

And every song is akin to a terrorist act;

And after twenty years of studying the art of being placid

I’ve talked to doctors.

They are helpless in explaining this fact.

Even if you are a Rolls-Royce, you will get stuck in the traffic;

Even in the Russian Museum you can’t barricade from the beautiful view.

You know, it doesn’t matter that someone took hold of your heart.

In my case, it seems that it must have been you.

I'm still thinking it must have been you.
