Нежность [Nezhnost'] [English translation]

The earth has become empty without you

And I have to live through these few hours,

As the leaves fall in gardens

And the taxis keep hurrying somewhere

But it's empty on earth, alone, without you

While you, you're flying, and to you,

the stars give you their tenderness

Just that empty was the earth

When Exupery was flying too

That's how the leaves fell in the gardens

And the earth couldn't imagine how

She could live without him, while he flew,

While he flew. And all the stars gave him

Their tenderness.

The earth is empty without you.

If you can, fly home soon.
