Ласточка (Lastochka) Lyrics in English by Борис Гребенщиков (Boris Grebenshchikov)
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ласточка (Lastochka) by Борис Гребенщиков (Boris Grebenshchikov) from Russian to English.
Прыг, ласточка, прыг, по белой стене
Prig, lastochka, prig, po beloi stene
Jump, swallow, jump, on a white wall
Прыг, ласточка, прыг, прямо ко мне
Prig, lastochka, prig, pryamo ko mne
Jump, swallow, jump, straight to me
Солнце взошло значит, время пришло
Solntse vzoshlo znachit, vremya prishlo
The sun has risen, it means the time has come
Прыг, ласточка, прыг а дело к войне
Prig, lastochka, prig a delo k voine
Jump, swallow, jump and it's time for war
Прыг, ласточка, прыг, прямо на двор
Prig, lastochka, prig, pryamo na dvor
Jump, swallow, jump, right into the yard
Прыг, ласточка, прыг, а в лапках топор
Prig, lastochka, prig, a v lapkakh topor
Jump, swallow, jump, and there’s an ax in your paws
С одной стороны свет; а другой стороны нет
S odnoi storoni svet; a drugoi storoni net
On one side there is light; and there is no other side
Значит, в нашем дому спрятался вор
Znachit, v nashem domu spryatalsya vor
So, there's a thief hiding in our house
Жизнь канет, как камень, в небе круги
Zhizn’ kanet, kak kamen’, v nebe krugi
Life will sink like a stone, circles in the sky
Прыг, ласточка, прыг а всюду враги
Prig, lastochka, prig a vsyudu vragi
Jump, swallow, jump and there are enemies everywhere
На битву со злом взвейся, сокол, козлом
Na bitvu so zlom vzveisya, sokol, kozlom
Soar into battle with evil, falcon, goat
А ты, ласточка, пой, а вслед не беги
A ti, lastochka, poi, a vsled ne begi
And you, swallow, sing, and don’t run after
Пой, ласточка, пой а мы бьем в тамтам
Poi, lastochka, poi a mi b’em v tamtam
Sing, swallow, sing and we beat the tom-tom
Ясны соколы здесь, ясны соколы там
Yasni sokoli zdes’, yasni sokoli tam
The falcons are clear here, the falcons there are clear
Сокол летит, а баба родит
Sokol letit, a baba rodit
The falcon flies and the woman gives birth
Значит, все, как всегда, все по местам
Znachit, vse, kak vsegda, vse po mestam
So, everything is as always, everything is in place
