Пока горит свеча [Poka gorit svecha] [English translation]

there are some days when you lose your heart

and there're no words, no music, and no strength left.

on days like these i was away from myself

and never asked anyone for help.

and i wanted to go where my feet would take me

lock up my house and never find the key

but i believed this: not everything is lost

until the light hasn't faded, until the candle's still lit.

and no one could force me to sing

the silence is the beginning of everything

but if the song straightens my shoulders

so hard it will be to make me fall silent

and although there're few days left

and snow has fallen but my blood's not hot

for the hundredth time i will start again

until the light hasn't faded, until the candle's still lit.
