Description
Summer always slips away in the same way - it seems like just a moment ago it was warm, there was laughter, cigarettes were smoking in the doorway, and now the newspaper is rustling in the wind and the leaves are starting to turn yellow. Nothing special, really: a cigarette burns down, the sky is reflected in the pond, trees bend in the wind... But in this simplicity, a signal suddenly sounds - a reminder that everything flows and returns, like a loop from warmth to warmth.
And in this there is a strange calm: it is not surprising that summer is passing, what is surprising is how easily it dissolves into the usual trifles. Voices in the garden, the crunch of paper underfoot, the sharp cold that will be replaced by a new wave of warmth. Even partings here seem not like the end, but a test of strength. Everything goes on as usual: sunset, dawn, we let go, we take back. And in this whirlwind, summer simply waves goodbye, promising to return.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето
Над домами где-то
Над домами где-то
Тлеет сигарета
Тлеет сигарета
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето
На порыве ветра
На порыве ветра
Смятая газета
Смятая газета
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето
Над домами где-то
Тлеет сигарета
Пролетает лето
На порыве ветра
Смятая газета
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето
Голоса - голоса за окном в саду
Листья чувствуют - упадут
Пожелтеют и лягут на землю
Небеса - небеса на воде в пруду
Стали меньше смеяться тут
Я посланию этому внемлю
Этот грустный сигнал я вдыхаю в грудь
Но с дороги нельзя свернуть
Наши ноги уходят на север
Ветер снова деревья будет гнуть
Несгибаемых не согнуть
Несменяема суть в этом деле
Пролетает лето
Над домами где-то
Тлеет сигарета
Пролетает лето
На порыве ветра
Смятая газета
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето
И не раз и не два я бывал в раю
Там где ангелы нам поют
На повтор любви нету запрета
От тепла до тепла нам дают петлю
Чтобы снова сказать люблю
После холода, снега и ветра
Так устроено всё, то темно, то свет
То в закат идём, то в рассвет
То кидаем всё, то берём в руки
В том, что лето пройдет, удивления нет
Это, в общем-то, не секрет
А любовь проверяют разлуки
Пролетает лето
Над домами где-то
Тлеет сигарета
Пролетает лето
На порыве ветра
Смятая газета
Пролетает лето
Пролетает лето

Summer flies by
Summer flies by
Above the houses somewhere
Above the houses somewhere
Cigarette smoldering
Cigarette smoldering
Summer flies by
Summer flies by
On a gust of wind
On a gust of wind
Crumpled newspaper
Crumpled newspaper
Summer flies by
Summer flies by
Summer flies by
Summer flies by
Above the houses somewhere
Cigarette smoldering
Summer flies by
On a gust of wind
Crumpled newspaper
Summer flies by
Summer flies by
Voices - voices outside the window in the garden
The leaves feel like they're going to fall
They turn yellow and fall to the ground
Heaven - heaven on the water in the pond
Laugh less here
I will heed this message
I breathe this sad signal into my chest
But you can't turn off the road
Our feet go north
The wind will bend the trees again
You can't bend the unbending
The essence of this matter is irreplaceable
Summer flies by
Above the houses somewhere
Cigarette smoldering
Summer flies by
On a gust of wind
Crumpled newspaper
Summer flies by
Summer flies by
And more than once or twice I have been to heaven
Where the angels sing to us
There is no prohibition on repeating love
From heat to heat they give us a loop
To say I love you again
After the cold, snow and wind
This is how everything works, sometimes it’s dark, sometimes it’s light.
We go into the sunset, then into the dawn
Then we throw everything away, then we pick it up
There is no surprise that summer will pass
This is, in general, no secret
And love is tested by separations
Summer flies by
Above the houses somewhere
Cigarette smoldering
Summer flies by
On a gust of wind
Crumpled newspaper
Summer flies by
Summer flies by
