Московская осень [Moskovskaya osen'] [English translation]
Московская осень [Moskovskaya osen'] [English translation]
Autumn came over Moscow
The rain is drummming on the leaves
The Ostankino Tower has pierced a cloud
And it's raining over the Ostankino District
People are rushing to the metro
I am hopping my way through the puddles
Into the bar
Where a barman give me a glass of wine
It's raining over the Tverskaya-Yamskaya street,
Over the Fili District and the Schelkovskaya street
The rain has captured Moscow
Like Napoleon did
The flock of migratory birds is
A farewell swing
The barman serves his friends rum
On the tab
The Moscow Autumn...
A maple sheds its last leaves reluctantly
And my memory takes me away like the wind
To another Moscow Autumn
Life is not an exotic thing
A Moscow woman is standing under the umbrella
Barocco and Gothic,
Madonna on stilts
There is a Stephen King paperback in her handback
Sting is crying in her player
The slight mist is wafting off her lips
And her glasses are sparkling
The Moscow Autumn...
The darkness is falling early, it's dark at eight of clock
And my memory takes me away like the wind
To another Moscow Autumn
The rain got tired drizzling,
A cat slips into a basement
A golden maple leaf
Fell on the grass
It's the time of sad verses,
Vermouth and umbrellas
Autumn came to Moscow
In a cloud of pungent scent
The Moscow Autumn...
There is a bright day someday
And my memory takes me away like the wind
To another Moscow Autumn
And my memory takes me away like the wind
To another Moscow Autumn
