Солнышко








Давайте петь








2000 лет





2000 years

I think about how rivers reach seas,
And in dew drops trickling down to palm I see
Rays slowly merging into clear dawn,
And I think that we live for two thousand years.

You will touch me sleeping
Like stars breathing in silence.
I will sense your tender light
Even in two thousand years.

I think about how sky permeates into me
And somewhere far away I see your reflection.
Say to me what you will never be able to say aloud,
I will fly away again, and you will remain alone waiting.

You will touch me sleeping
Like stars breathing in silence.
I will sense your tender light
Even in two thousand years.

Lay me on the wind and close my eyelids for a moment.
Forgetting my doubts, I will melt for an instant,
Flying away..

I think that stars cannot conceal
What they feel, they will be whispering it to me all night.
Think about me, and I will read the answer on the sky
When it reaches me even in two thousand years.

You will touch me sleeping
Like stars breathing in silence.
I will sense your tender light
Even in two thousand years.
