Прекрасное далеко [Prekrasnoye dalyoko] [English translation]

I hear a voice from the wondrous future

It's the voice of morning in the silver dew

I hear a voice, and the glittering path

Makes my head spin like a childhood carousel.

Oh wondrous future,

Please do not be cruel to me,

Please do not be cruel to me,

Please do not be cruel.

I travel from a pure source

Towards a wondrous future,

Towards a wondrous future,

I now begin my way

I hear a voice from the wondrous future

It beckons me to wonderful lands

I hear a voice and it is asking me strictly

What I have done for tomorrow today.

Oh wondrous future,

Please do not be cruel to me,

Please do not be cruel to me,

Please do not be cruel.

I travel from a pure source

Towards a wondrous future,

Towards a wondrous future,

I now begin my way

I swear I'll become more honest and kinder,

and I'll never leave behind a friend in need.

I hear a voice, and hastening towards its call

Along a path which no footprints mark.

Oh wondrous future,

Please do not be cruel to me,

Please do not be cruel to me,

Please do not be cruel.

I travel from a pure source

Towards a wondrous future,

Towards a wondrous future,

I now begin my way
