S nashei vstrechi poslednei proshel uzhe, mozhet bit’, god
It's been maybe a year since we last saw each other
Ya tak khotela tebe napisat’, no vot chto ne znala
I wanted to write to you so much, but I just didn't know what to say
No govoryat, chto tvoyo ot tebya nikuda ne uidet
But they say what's meant for you will never pass you by
Prosti menya za lyubov’ so vtorogo vzglyada
Forgive me for falling in love at second sight
A ti mne ne govori 'proshchai'
Don't you tell me "goodbye"
Skazhi mne 'do skoroi vstrechi!'
Tell me "see you soon!"
Moi reis moskva-dubai
My Moscow-Dubai flight
Lyubimim stanet beskonechno
Will be my favorite one forever
Ne govori 'proshchai'
Don't say "goodbye"
Skazhi, kak sil’no ti skuchaesh’
Tell me how much you miss me
Moi reis moskva-dubai
My Moscow-Dubai flight
Pokhozhe, bil ne sluchainim
Looks like it wasn't by chance
Ya ne znayu, god nazad
A year ago, I don't know
Gde bili moi glaza
where were my eyes?
Tebya kak budto ne znala
It's like I didn't even know you
A teper’ ya ne mogu
But now I can't last
Bez tebya i pyat’ minut
even five minutes without you
Mne tak tebya vsegda malo
I can never get enough of you
Ne lyublyu proshchat’sya, provozhat’ ne nado
I hate goodbyes, don't see me off
Ti prosti za lyubov’ so vtorogo vzglyada
Forgive me for love at second sight
Ne govori proshchai
Don't say goodbye
Skazhi mne do skoroi vstrechi
Tell me “see you soon”
Moi reis moskva-dubai
My Moscow-Dubai flight
Lyubimim stanet beskonechno
Will be my favorite one forever
Ne govori proshchai
Don't say goodbye
Skazhi, kak sil’no ti skuchaesh’
Tell me how much you miss me
Moi reis moskva-dubai
My Moscow-Dubai flight
Pokhozhe bil ne sluchainim
Looks like it wasn't by chance
Ne govori proshchai
Don't say goodbye
Skazhi mne do skoroi vstrechi
Tell me “see you soon”
Moi reis moskva-dubai
My Moscow-Dubai flight
Lyubimim stanet beskonechno
Will be my favorite one forever
Ne govori proshchai
Don't say goodbye
Skazhi, kak sil’no ti skuchaesh’
Tell me how much you miss me
Moi reis moskva-dubai
My Moscow-Dubai flight
Pokhozhe bil ne sluchainim
Looks like it wasn't by chance

Did you like this lyrics translation?
МОСКВА-ДУБАЙ is a love song about a second chance. About a year has passed since she last saw him, and she admits she wanted to write but "не знала" (didn't know) what to say. Then comes the saying she leans on: "твоё от тебя никуда не уйдет" (what's yours won't go anywhere), the Russian way of saying fate brings back what is meant for you.
She asks forgiveness for "любовь со второго взгляда" (love at second sight), a cheeky flip of love at first sight. A year ago she somehow didn't notice him; now she can't last "и пять минут" (even five minutes) without him. The chorus is simple and catchy: don't tell me "прощай" (goodbye forever), say "до скорой встречи" (see you soon). Her "рейс Москва-Дубай" (Moscow-Dubai flight) will be her favourite one forever, and it looks like it "был не случайным" (wasn't by chance). There's even a short English verse near the end, so you get both languages.
