Postoy, ne ukhodi!
My zhdali leta – prishla zima.
My zakhodili v doma,
No v domakh shol sneg.
My zhdali zavtrashny den,
Kazhdy den zhdali zavtrashny den.
My pryachem glaza za shtorami vek.
V nashikh glazakh kriki “Vperyod!”
V nashikh glazakh okriki “Stoy!”
V nashikh glazakh rozhdeniye dnya
I smert ognya.
V nashikh glazakh zvyozdnaya noch,
V nashikh glazakh poteryanny ray,
V nashikh glazakh zakrytaya dver.
Chto tebe nuzhno? Vybiray!
My khoteli pit, ne bylo vody.
My khoteli sveta, ne bylo zvezdy.
My vykhodili pod dozhd
I pili vodu iz luzh.
My khoteli pesen, ne bylo slov.
My khoteli spat, ne bylo snov.
My nosili traur, orkestr igral tush …
V nashikh glazakh kriki “Vperyod!”
V nashikh glazakh okriki “Stoy!”
V nashikh glazakh rozhdeniye dnya
I smert ognya.
V nashikh glazakh zvyozdnaya noch,
V nashikh glazakh poteryanny ray,
V nashikh glazakh zakrytaya dver.
Chto tebe nuzhno? Vybiray!
