TRANSLATION- Song of no Words
These are actually song lyrics Originally written and performed by: Victor Tsoi from the group Kino. Language of origin: Russian Pesnya Bez Slov / Song of no words Song of no words, night of no dreams, To all comes its time, winter snow, spring time streams, To every star there’s a piece of the sky, for every sea a drink of rain from up high, To every apple there’s a place it can fall, And every thief has a chance for his goal, Every live dog has a stick and a bone, And in every wolf teeth and anger are shone. Chorus Again through my window shines bright day, Stirring inside me a battle cry, I feel within, as I am closing my eyes Whole world wages war on me, till I die. If there’s a flock, shepherd must have control If there’s a body, there should be a soul If there’s a step, there should be trail, If there’s darkness, light should prevail, Desires compel you to alter this world? Can you assent and accept what is? Stand, break free from the crowd alone, Sit in the electric chair or a throne? Chorus Again through my window shines bright day, Stirring inside me a battle cry, I feel within, as I am closing my eyes Whole world wages war on me, till I die.
