Шелкопряд [Shelkopryad] [English translation]

I am invisible up in the tree leaves

Filling my little life with it’s meaning,

I am weaving my thin thread of silk.

There's great many so close to each other,

One is silkworm and so is another,

All are weaving their own threads of silk.

All the seas drop by drop were completed with water,

And grits may concrete into boulder,

All eternity is longer than that.

I need only contribute a very small fee,

For my short single life to weave

The only beautiful silk thread.

Someone has been caught by the web of religion

Someone’s crazy for Martian invasion

I am weaving my thin thread of silk.

Someone is searching for scientific answers,

Someone’s fighting rock mountain hardness,

I am weaving my thin thread of silk.

All the seas drop by drop were completed with water,

And grits may concrete into boulder,

All eternity is longer than that.

I need only contribute a very small fee,

For my short single life to weave

The only beautiful silk thread.

I… I can do that but simply no more,

I am a single silkworm,

World of madness around me is spinning.

We create with our own hands this magic

Light and delicate wonderful fabric,

Beauty, simple enough to perceive it.

All the seas drop by drop were completed with water,

And grits may concrete into boulder,

All eternity is longer than that.

I need only contribute a very small fee,

For my short single life to weave

The only beautiful silk thread.

All the seas drop by drop were completed with water,

And grits may concrete into boulder,

All eternity is longer than that.

I need only contribute a very small fee,

For my short single life to weave

The only beautiful silk thread.
