How is it possible to take away one's life?
How is it possible to cut off the light?
How is it possible to take away mum
from a child who is
five?
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
A person has no way of knowing
how much time one will live.
But one has a way of choosing the only thing:
what to do with this time.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
How should one learn to live in the world,
to be able to love, to be able to forgive,
and to input all of one's effort till the end?
And to input all of one's effort till the end!
To live!
To live!
To live.
How should one learn simply to live,
to be next to the closest people,
to dream together,
to love together,
and to treasure one's every single moment?
How is it possible to excuse an enemy?
How should one know not to cross the line?
How should one be able to hold the tears inside,
to see the sunrise ahead,
to hope and to believe?
Yesterday can never be returned!
That is the essence of the future life:
to pass over, to preserve, to forgive.
Our children are to live on here yet.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live.
To live!
To live!
To live.
To live.
You and me
are to soar with happiness together in the sky,
to live our dream!
The sun will rise again.
The ground will hug the sun at dawn!
The ground will hug the sun at dawn!
To live!
To live!
To live.
How should one learn to live in peace?
Staying in the dawn's hugs,
simply to love, simply to dream,
to warm this world with one's heart.
I do remember me being eighteen:
music, sport, my desire to change myself.
Nobody believed in my success back then.
But against all odds I've managed to succeed.
I do remember everyone shouting to me: "It's all wrong!"
Studying, working - that was unbearable!
Being the only son, having the only chance,
the MSU diploma was my incentive!
My story is all different:
I was kicked out of the faculty, it was not approved at home.
Then one of my acquaintances told me
that the richest man in the country was from an orphanage.
I heard the diagnosis, I was there at the hospital.
I was looking into their eyes, looking straight into their faces.
There's not a hint of despondency about them, but the desire to live, not for a couple of years, but at least for thirty.
At least for thirty? At least for a hundred!
There is no "if"! There is no "but"!
Despondency pulls to the bottom like an anchor.
It's time to change everything! It's all decided!
I've made myself what I am.
Are you that worse?
You can do that!
How is that possible you being worse?
Grab the chance with your hands!
Change your life together with us!
To live!
To live!
To live!
How should one learn simply to live?
Not to make war, not to kill,
but simply to become a human.
But simply to become a human!
Simply to live.
