Жар-птица [Zhar-Ptitsa] [English translation]

I have brought to present you

neither tulips nor jasmine,

nor peonies and nor roses,

nor snowdrops from alps.

I will give you a firebird feather.

On a cloudy day, at the moment when

misfortune suddenly knocks,

and alone you can’t manage,

throw two coins in the fire

and touch thrice the feather,

then the firebird will come flying with me.

If you don’t believe in a miracle,

do believe in my love.

Just the most secure place

do prepare for the present.

One needs only to believe in the magic of love.

Chorus [x2]

Throw two coins in the fire

and touch thrice the feather,

then the firebird will come flying with me.
