Птицы [Ptitsy] [English translation]

Black birds locked in the cages,

Prophet birds, the birds of God.

Damned by heaven, uaccepted by earth,

Thrown away by Devil, abandoned by God.

Black birds are flying above the city,

they are able to wipe out the gods by their hunger.

They sing forbidden prophet songs,

the angels of God, baptised by nobody.

Black birds create a flock,

they want to argue with God until they lose their voice.

They hide their tears and prayers in threats,

and wreath of thorns in roses.

Black birds are falling in love with heaven,

in the humility, they throw themselves down the abyss because.

Their heart is broken and wings are broken -

this is how God´s crows die.
