Sunlit Promised Island by Mashina Vremeni, English by Vesper Lynd
All ropes are tightened
Fairy tale is a deceit
Sunlit Promised Island
Is gone at drumbeat
No enchanted castle
On Earth to explore
Someone made an error
Keeping the score
All fairies are faking it
There are no golden hills
Others are catching
The stars and the thrills
No birds of paradise
To banish the crows
Someone made an error
Keeping the scores
In spring it’s all melting
The snow and the ice
The ocean, the mountains
The pure blue skies
You know what will save us?
The faith and belief
In God’s perfect timing all get a relief
*
All ropes are tightened
Fairy tale is a deceit
Sunlit Promised Island
Is gone at drumbeat
You know what will save us?
Faith and belief
In God’s perfect timing
All get a relief
If You Don’t Have An Auntie by Alexandr Aronov and Michael Tariverdiev, Engflish by Vesper Lynd
If you don’t have a house, a fire won’t mess up your life
And your wife will not ever leave you – If you don’t have, if you don’t have, if you don’t have a wife…
– “Don’t have a wife!”
If you are not a dog owner, you won’t be sued for it’s attack
And your friend will not turn his back upon you, if you are watching if you are watching, if you are watching his back
– Watching his back!
The orchestra is playing loud, the trumpeter is short of breath
Decide for yourself, see for yourself –
To have or – not to have, to have or – not to have…
If you don’t have an auntie, you won’t ever lose her respect
A disease won’t ever affect you, if you elect, if you elect to let that disease go unchecked … !
– To ‘run it’s course’ unchecked!
The orchestra is playing loud, the trumpeter is short of breath
Decide for yourself, see for yourself –
To have or – not to have, to have or – not to have…

Twenty Years From Today by Yuri Antonov, English by Vesper Lynd
I am asking you to please forget
All that has gone wrong
Let it go and try to understand
Where I am coming from
What I need to say you still don’t know
You are the only one to blame
All I know – it is a shame
To let you slip away
And let you go…
A day with you alone was like a dream
You are such good sport
“Life is good!” is what I want to scream
This evening is too short
I am asking you to be with me
Listen to my point of view
Plain to see and nothing new
That all I need is you
And only you
Hold my breath and I will pray
That twenty years from today
I’d keep you near me and say:
“This love is here to stay”…
Never had such happiness in love
I simply never knew
Ten decades like this alone with you
Would never be enough…
Thankful to the fate that treats me well
For your love that’s always new
At will, I am under your spell –
All that I need is you
And only you
I close my eyes and I will pray
That twenty years from today
I hold you near me and say:
“This love is here to stay”…
‘A Word From A Father To A Son’ by Michail Zhvanetsky. English by Vesper Lynd.
…”When you will have a son, try to be careful. I’m afraid that you won’t be able to, but they are always different.
Me and you.
You and him.
You won’t be able to control him.
The first person who is completely dependent on you but you can’t control him.
This must be where difference between people lays.
This is impossible to live with.
You have an urge to punish, force to do as you want.
You could make him do it, but it’s better if he will – as you had – find his own path.
But basic knowledge – spelling, mathematics, conducting himself among people – he ought to be able to phrase.
First of all, what does he want from them and what can he give in return.
Just so that either to ‘demand’ or to ‘submit’.
Education helps to bear humiliation”. (Applause)
“… Education helps to endure torture. Education earns respect in jail.”
“A rich man simply observes what he receives.
An educated person compares what he sees with something within himself and does not require anything in excess of that.”
“It is easier for an educated person to understand his counterpart.
An educated human will understand an uneducated human. Uneducated human will not understand educated human, my son”.
“Remember how we discussed with you that education is phrasing something of your own based on what you’ve read.
Even inexact citing is already something of your own under a different name”.
(Loud laughter)
“May your son will be educated. A degree has nothing to do with it”.
