     Let's swim forward
     And the deck is covered in snow,
     And someone insistently asks
     Go back
     Where it's warmer.
     He is a coward, he is afraid of the polar latitudes
     And all the days spent here.
     Are we not afraid?:
     : We are sailing forward,
     And our sail is red from frost and white
     Only those who are not afraid of polar latitudes
     Who is strong in spirit and who is brave.
     We know we will achieve our desired goal,
     But there is only one question here:
     Will we return home?
     And if we go back,
     Will anyone take us seriously?

           Goodbye Ocean!

     The sound of the surf is heard in the distance,
     There, on the sea, there are ships,
     And I'm leaving him.
     Goodbye ocean!
     I myself for a moment
     I'll keep you close.
     I'll look into the bluish distance,
     And there is steel on fish scales,
     And on small fish
     In green water
     What are they scurrying about in dark blue?
     Your depth.
     Goodbye ocean!
     It's time for me to catch the train
     I'll leave you forever
     I'll never see you again
     If I were in a thousand countries.
     Goodbye ocean!

     Rusty pines stretched to the sky,
     Shadows fell from long birch trees,
     The first people in the world woke up
     Still not waking up from all my dreams.
     Those people were innocent and pure,
     The big eyes breathed with happiness.
     Their souls, clear and radiant,
     Moretasted no evil.
     They looked at each other with love,
     Flowers were blooming all around,
     The first birds in the world began to sing,
     This is how the world was born.

     What is time?
     It's just tape.
     What is life?
     There's just a thread in the ribbon.
     They pull the thread - and the person is gone.
     Life is a strange thing.
