Ключи от моих дверей [Kljuchi ot moikh dverej] [English translation]

Between what I used to be

And what I have become

Lies an infinite way;

But I've been walking all day

And I grew tired

And I wanted to fall asleep.

And she didn't ask me who I was

And why I knocked on her door;

She said: "Take with yourself

The keys to my doors".

Between what I have become

And what I used to be

There are seven hours until the morning.

I left before the dawn, and I forgot

Whose face I was wearing yesterday.

And she didn't ask me where I was going

To the north or to the south;

She said: "Take with yourself

The keys to my doors".

Those days I blew a horn made of tin

I played with the crown of thorns

And my eight strings seemed to me

As either air, or lead;

And tens of friends

Wanted to boil

A soup from my animals;

She said: "Take with yourself

The keys to my doors".

And when I thought, that there was no one to sing to

I kept silence and became hoarse.

And when I thought, that there were no people

Among the pigs and fish;

And when I thought, that one joker was left

Among their trumps

She said: "Take with yourself

The keys to my doors".
