Original lyrics
Мы как трепетные птицы
Мы как трепетные птицы,
Мы как свечи на ветру,
Дивный сон ещe нам снится,
Да развеется к утру.
Встаньте в ряд, разбейте окна,
Пусть всe будет без причин,
Есть, как есть, а то, что будет,
Пусть никто не различит.
Нет ни сна, ни пробужденья -
Только шорохи вокруг,
Только жжeт прикосновенье
Бледных пальцев нервных рук.
Бейте в бубен, рвите струны,
Кувыркайся, мой паяц,
В твоeм сердце дышит трудно
Драгоценная змея.
Бейте в бубен, рвите струны,
Громче музыка играй,
А кто слышал эти песни,
Попадает прямо в рай.
Мы, как трепетные птицы,
Мы как свечи на ветру,
Дивный сон ещe нам снится,
Да развеется к утру.
Нет ни сна, ни пробужденья -
Только шорохи вокруг,
Только жжeт прикосновенье
Бледных пальцев нервных рук.

Translation
We Are Like Trembling Birds
We're like tiny trembling birds, um..
We're like candles in the wind,
We are having wondrous night dream,
By the dawn it'll disappear.
Stand in line, break up the windows,
Let all be without a cause,
It is what it is but what'll be,
My Lord, let no one discern.
There's no sleeping nor awakening -
Only rustling's everywhere,
Just the touch is burning, stinging -
Of pale fingers, nervous hands.
Beat the drum, keep ripping strings up,
Do the jumps, my little clown,
Precious snake is hardly breathing,
Breathing like vein in your heart.
Beat the drum, keep ripping strings up,
Play the music thundering,
And all those, who heard these songs, are
Soaring high on angels' wings.
We're like tiny trembling birds, um..
We're like candles in the wind,
We are having wondrous night dream,
By the dawn it'll disappear.
There's no sleeping nor awakening -
Only rustling's everywhere,
Just the touch is burning, stinging -
Of pale fingers, nervous hands.

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