Прыг-Скок [Pryg-Skok] [English translation]

Swings were flying

Without a passenger

Without any effort

All by themselves

Swings were flying

Without a passenger

Without any effort

All by themselves

All by themselves

All by themselves

A throat dried out

A twig got wet

A twig got wet

A ditch swelled out

With gratuitous moisture

With stagnat water

With stagnat water

And with black convulsions

Fingers got cramped

A head got scorched

A body got carried out

A soul got swept

Out to the village fence

Beyond the village fence

A hair got whitened

A voice got squeezed out

Wrinkles got baked

Men began to laugh

Men began to laugh

And women to weep

Fingers feel cold

Thoughts feel small

From the vail of life

To the unknown pains - hop-jump!

Hop-jump!

Hop-jump!

Hop-jump!

Hop under the earth

Jump up the cloud

Hop under the earth

Jump up the cloud

A moustache began to tremble

A clock began to dance

Hop - a second

Jump - a century

Hop - a second

Jump - a century

A moustache went grey

A clock stood still

Time vanished

A seed burned down

A vomit chocked

A hiccup got throttled

Fear writhed

Under a telogreika (russian traditional quilted jacket)

In the darkness - a mirror, a kandle and water

Somebody inside is dying and laughing

With lips frothing

With lips frothing

With teeth chattering

Wait for an eclipse

Wait for a sign

From those who wait for you at night in the field.

Perceive the order

Perceive the order

One is a holy father

One is not once a liver

One tore a ring

One fell under a weel

Everything will exactly come true

Everything will be forgotten

Everything will come right in the end

A body has moved

Circling around

Without any efforts

All by itself

All by itself

All by itself

Fingers doubled up

With a black cramp

With a black cramp

Fingers doubled up

From the red-hot steel

To the monstrous expanses - hop-jump!

Hop-jump!

Hop-jump!

Hop-jump!

Hop under the skin

Jump up the apple-tree

Hop under the skin

Jump up the heaven

Hop under the skin

Jump up the heaven

Night, a mirror, a kandle and water

And a white tablecloth

A paint was flaming

A mask was turning to stone

Hard frost in a bosom

Skin wore out

Drip-drop

Drip-drop

Drip-

Skin wore out

Face got empty

Hands got cramped

And the soul got swept

The soul got swept

Out beyond the villange fence

Vexatious litter from a meat izbushka (russian traditional type of dwelling)

Quotes got unquoted

Habits got forgotten

Throw a kandle in a brook

Throw a kandle in a brook

Let the wax float

Let the wax float

Water is sparkling

The wax is floating

A child is dying

A little old man is singing:

Take a sit on the stairs

And listen to a song

Of a dry well

Of a guilty freak

About how it happened

That a bucket got broken

And a rope broke off

So there was no water

So there was quite fuck all -

Only a snake was snaking

And a flow was flowing

And raspberries were ripening

Breath in - yes - Breath out

Breath out - yes - Breath in

Breath in - yes - Breath out

Breat out - yes - Breath in

Throw off your aspect

Put out the candle

Accept a present

Tear out a root away

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Lower than the cemetary

Higher than the sun

Lower than the cemetary

Higher than the sun

Hop under the earth

Jump up the cloud

Hop under the earth

Jump up the cloud

Above the trees

Under the graves

Lower than the cemetary

Higher than the sun

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

Jump-hop!

All by themselfes

Swings were flying

Without passengers

Without any effort

All by themselfes

Everythingl will exactly come true

Everything will be forgotten

Everything will come right in the end
