Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Vse obidi i sto-pyat’sot nulei
All grievances and one hundred and five hundred zeros
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Yadovitikh millioni dnei
Poisonous millions of days
Odin mudrets skazal: 'Lyubov’ — eto karta'
A wise man once said: 'Love is a map'
Togda, kakaya u nas dolgota?
Then what is our longitude?
Popolznoveniya moi, kak bakenbardi
My tendencies are like sideburns
I ti sbrivaesh’ ikh pryamo s utra
And you shave them off right in the morning
Mudrets skazal: 'Vse podrugi — zmeyuki'
The sage said: 'All friends are snakes'
Poslushai, brat, ni za chto ne zhenis’
Listen, brother, don't get married for anything
Mudrets skazal, chto lyubov’ — eto bryuki
The wise man said that love is pants
I v odnom meste oni razoshlis’
And in one place they separated
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Vse obidi i sto-pyat’sot nulei
All grievances and one hundred and five hundred zeros
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Yadovitikh millioni dnei
Poisonous millions of days
Odin glupets skazal: 'Lyubov’ — eto kompas'
A fool said: 'Love is a compass'
Ti — dikii Zapad, on — sochinskii Yug
You are the wild West, he is the Sochi South
Ti neobuzdannaya, kak Pokakhontas
You're wild like Pocahontas
On — po dorogam, a ti — po avenyu
He's on the roads, and you're on the avenues
Togda glupets skazal, chto zhizn’ — eto povest’
Then the fool said that life is a story
Uvi, stranitsi nashi vse porvalis’
Alas, our pages are all torn
Ya ostavlyayu tebe vsyo, dazhe sovest’
I leave everything to you, even my conscience
Vot s nei poprobui dal’she dogovoris’
Try to negotiate with her further
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Vse obidi i sto-pyat’sot nulei
All grievances and one hundred and five hundred zeros
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Yadovitikh millioni dnei
Poisonous millions of days
Nu i kak tebe spitsya, a, dorogaya?
Well, how do you sleep, eh, dear?
Tvoi slova menya, kak spitsi, proshivayut
Your words stitch me like knitting needles
Ya znayu, chto v lyuboi ssore ne pravi dvoe
I know that in any quarrel two are wrong
Menya lechila eta sovest’, kak aloe
This conscience treated me like aloe
I gde-to rovno v dva mi k advokatam
And somewhere exactly at two we go to the lawyers
Ladno, tebe — khatu, ladno, uzhe zabirai ves’ dom
Okay, the hut is yours, okay, take the whole house already
Tvoi novii den’ uzhe pridyot bez menya
Your new day will come without me
I, znaesh’, chto? Bog tebe sud’ya
And, guess what? God is your judge
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Vse obidi i sto-pyat’sot nulei
All grievances and one hundred and five hundred zeros
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Yadovitikh millioni dnei
Poisonous millions of days
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Vse obidi i sto-pyat’sot nulei
All grievances and one hundred and five hundred zeros
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei
I'll leave it on your conscience
Yadovitikh millioni dnei
Poisonous millions of days
Ya ostavlyu na sovesti tvoei

бакенбардыsideburns

Бакенбарды translates to "sideburns". It's a rather unusual and specific word to find in a song, making it quite memorable and intriguing.

In the lyrics, the singer compares his "advances" or "attempts" (поползновения) to sideburns that his beloved shaves off every morning. This creates a vivid and somewhat humorous image of his efforts being repeatedly rejected or dismissed, highlighting the one-sided nature of the relationship described in the song.

This song is about walking away from a relationship that has run its course, and leaving the blame behind rather than carrying it forward.

The singer keeps repeating that he will leave his grievances on his ex's conscience, letting her sort out what happened between them. He weaves in a few tongue in cheek proverbs, comparing love to a map, a compass, and even a pair of pants, poking fun at how confusing and mismatched the relationship became.

By the end he is practical about it: she keeps the house, they go their separate ways, and he leaves the judging to her conscience, or to God. It is a breakup song that trades bitterness for a shrug.
