Магадан [Magadan] [English translation]

The wind has torn the fog,

The sun is coming out through the rainclouds' cheeks...

Hello, my Magadan,

Hello, the ray of spring.

Next to the pub, a man

Put a mug to his lips

And Magadan with seagulls

Appeared on his hand...

Magadan, it means I'm going home again,

Into this magic dream.

Magadan, the dream where, during the short spring,

I'm madly in love like a boy...

The mountains are sleeping gloomily,

The leaden colour of the sea.

Barges of the Kolyma years

Stand on the shore.

I long to fly away from that cove,

With the seagulls,

Cry a bitter tear

And sing a farewell song:

Magadan, it means I'm going home again,

Into this magic dream.

Magadan, the dream where, during the short spring,

I'm madly in love like a boy...
