Original lyrics
Вот же это слово
Слово – это ветер, ветер – это…
Вот же это слово, с ног как будто сбило.
Слово – это ветер, а ветер – это сила.
Издали и город кажется осколком,
Потому не вечно, потому недолго.
Вот же эти руки, шёлк и злые плети
Бьют, а мне не больно, я один на свете.
Подожгу звезды, что ещё остались,
Попрошу небо: «Обогрей малость!»
На заре тихо солнце разбудит.
Все, что захочешь, все так и будет.
День уходящий сбросит оковы,
Зачеркни старый, нарисуй новый…
Вот бы обогреться искрами рассвета,
А уже торопят, мол, пройдет и это.
Уж звезда на небе сто имён сменила,
Имя – это слово, слово – это ветер, а ветер – это…
Ветер – это…

Here Is The Word
Word is just the wind, and wind is just a...
Here is the key word, it has knocked me down.
Word is just the wind and the wind is higher power.
From afar big city seems like shattered fragment,
Hence it's not forever, hence it's not for long here.
Here are these hands, yet silk and evil whips keep
Flogging but there's no pain, I'm alone in this world.
I will set on fire stars that still remain here,
I will ask the heavens: warm me just a little.
At the dawn gently sun is gonna wake me.
All you desire, all that will happen.
Long parting day will throw off the shackles,
Cross out the old one, draw up the new one...
Let the sparks of new dawn warm me up completely,
But I'm hurried once more: all of this will pass too.
And the star in heavens changed a hundred old names,
Name is just the word, and word is just the wind, and the wind is just a...
The wind is just a...

I realize that pressing "Thanks"
is really hard for most of you, yet
you should keep on trying...
