Метель [Metel'] [English translation]

Music & words by Jurij Julianovitch Shevtchuk + DDT

By the Moon you got your crown

Like beginning - flying high

Just like hope - the heavy frown

And the victory's not mine...

Sweeping wind brings wall of snow:

Up till head all life's now filled

Happy end's completely gone

What was warm in hole's gone drilled

Play song as you can, just play

Come, close your eyes, and return

Don't vanish - melt, interfade

Long road's a stead - take your turn!

Give to my window your warmth,

Let go in freedom at spring

Mature quicker, be gone

Forever you are my thrill

Forever you are my thrill

Forever you are my thrill

My thrill...

Man-made street lights search for ground,

Candle-soul tries to reach God

White snow's tracing light of dawn -

Wings of light's ray came to fall

Listen, blizzard, fill for toast

Grail we'll drink with hungry zeal

Memorising things we lost :

I shall sing, you bark to feel

Play song as you can, just play

Come, close your eyes, and return

Don't vanish - melt, interfade

Long road's a stead - take your turn!

Give to my window your warmth,

Let go in freedom at spring

Mature quicker, be gone

Forever you are my thrill

Forever you are my thrill

Forever you are my thrill

My thrill...

Coming gently, come with care

Where chest's heartbeat brings white wind

Where by frozen langskip's bare

Soul is waiting for a greet...

Play song as you can, just play

Come, close your eyes, and return

Don't vanish - melt, interfade

Long road's a stead - take your turn!

Give to my window your warmth,

Let go in freedom at spring

Mature quicker, be gone

Forever you are my thrill

Forever you are my thrill

Forever you are my thrill

My thrill...
