Неотправленное письмо [Neotpravlennoe pismo] [English translation]

It lies in my table for a long time

There is one letter under a stack of books.

And maybe not only a year

In one of the quiet alleys

Someone waits for it with hope.

Another one would a long time ago

drop this letter to you.

And maybe in response to him,

On the third or fourth day

The postman would bring an envelope.

The rains pour, the snows sweep

You are so close and far away.

And it may not be destined

You to know that I wrote

To you alone a long time ago.

You are the only one in my destiny

So why, then to you

I've been sending a letter some years yet.

You probably won't believe -

All because I love

I love.
