Текст и перевод песни ДДТ - Vorony

Vorony

Na nebe vorony, pod nebom monakhi,
I ia mezhdu nimi v rasshitoj rubakhe,
Lezhu na prostore, legka i prigozha,
I solntse vzroslee, i veter molozhe.

Menia otpevali v gromadine khrama,
Byla ia nevesta, prekrasnaia dama.
Dusha moia riadom stoiala i pela,
No liudi, ne veria, smotreli na telo.

Sud'ba i molitva menialis' mestami,
Molchal moj liubimyj i krestnoe znamia,
Litso ego svetom edva osveshchalo,
Prostila ego. Ia emu vse proshchala.

Vesna zadrozhav ot pechal'nogo zvona,
Smakhnula tri kapli na liki ikony,
Chto mirno pokoilas' mezhdu rukami.
Eio tselovalo veseloe plamia.

Svecha dogorela, upalo kadilo.
Zemlia zastonav, prevrashchalas' v mogilu.
Ia brosilas' v nebo za legkoj sinitsej.
Teper' ia na vole, ia Belaia Ptitsa.

Vzletev na proshan'e, kruzhas' nad rodnymi,
Smeialas' ia, goria ikh ne ponimaia.
My vstretimsia vskore, no budem inymi.
Est' vechnaia volia, zovet menia staia.

Crows

Crows in the sky, monks beneath the heavens,
And I between them in a tattered shirt,
I lie in the open, light and beautiful,
And the sun is older, and the wind is younger.

They sang my farewell in the bulk of the temple,
I was a bride, a beautiful lady.
My soul stood nearby and sang,
But people, not believing, looked at the body.

Fate and prayer changed places,
My beloved and the cross were silent,
His face barely illuminated by light,
I forgave him. I forgave him everything.

Spring trembled from the mournful ringing,
Brushed three drops on the faces of the icon,
That rested peacefully between my hands.
A cheerful flame kissed it.

The candle burned out, the censer fell.
The earth groaned, turning into a grave.
I threw myself into the sky after a light titmouse.
Now I am free, I am the White Bird.

Taking off in farewell, circling over my loved ones,
I laughed, burning, not understanding them.
We will meet soon, but we will be different.
There is eternal freedom, the flock calls me.
