Город Мертвецов [Gorod Mertvetsov] [English translation]

So happened to be

A monk came to the town

To passersby he spoke:

- I suppose I do know

about what are you dreaming

For this purpose have I descended from the peaks!

- Do you want to live forever?

Then you are lucky!

I without a doubt

Shall multiply your years of lifespan

- Bring me a vat

And fill it with wine

Into it shall I pour potion

Drink as much as you wish!

And afterwards you'll experience

Eternal joy

Chorus:

- Out there in the monastery

To me was entrusted

Legacy of the ancestors

Secret of centuries

An ancient recipe

Whence I fare there is no death

Forgotten by the world

A little city

For hundred years it remains the same

Crowds of citizens

Whose life is so long gone

Like ghosts they still dwell there

In the morning

Flows of their bodies

Appear in the alleys

By the twilight

The city is deserted

In the windows shadows stand still

Chorus:

- Out there in the monastery

To me was entrusted

Legacy of the ancestors

Secret of centuries

An ancient recipe

Nothing back then

Monk did tell

That every soul

Has it's own fate

And so is the problem...

No emotions anymore

Only memory makes them go

Filled are the streets

By living dead
