The crane flyes in the sky

My mam asked God for me so many times
So many times she bowed in a prayer, kissed the cross.
But her son got cards foretelling him a long road,1 2
Diamond worries3 and surprise of spades.4
 
The crane flies in the sky, the ship goes by the sea.
And me, what's draging me throughout the whole world, and why?5
And where is the reward awaiting me, and where is an ambush set for me?6
Keep walking, little soldier, keep looking for the answer!
The crane flies in the sky...
 
Oops,7 where to run? Let me look around!
There is an outpost in front of me, and behinde me - there is a trap.
The White, The Green, The Gold-shoulder-boarded8
Yet everyone has only one head9, so have I.
 
The crane flies in the sky, the ship goes by the sea.
And me, what's draging me throughout the whole world, and why?5
And where is the reward awaiting me, and where is an ambush set for me?6
Keep walking, little soldier, keep looking for the answer!
The crane flies in the sky...
 
I've been all over the world, I've tasted everything10
Porridge made of birch, nettle soup, henbane11
But I've never been lucky to have a deaner in heaven
Forgive me God, I'd better wait a bit with that.

This is a song from tragicomic musical 'Bumbarash'.
 

• 1. In the original movie the singer of this song is a Gypsy guy, named Lyofka, so this line and the next one it's about fortunetelling, or to be exact - cartomancy.
• 2. litt. 'A distant road befell the son'. But in russian it can be understood as well as 'The son got a card that told his fortune is to hit a distant road soon'.
• 3. 'Хлопоты бубновые - Diamond worries'. It's a cartomancy slang meaning 'money expenses, paper work, mayby writing letters, petitions, pleadings. 'Diamond worries' in cartomancy correspond to the 'Knave of Dimonds' among the playing cards. Well, I'm not sure about all this, I just googled.
• 4. 'Пиковый интерес' (litt. 'spade's interest') -'surprise of spades'. It's a cartomancy slang meaning 'unexpected outcome'. And it corresponds to the 'Ten of Spades' among the playing cards. I'm not sure about this too, I just googled.
• litt. And who's draging me, and where to, throughout the whole world? (In the original song he sings not 'сюда', but 'куда')
• He is wondering, he doesn't know what expects him in the future
• 7. It's 'Ой' in the original song, not 'Ах'.
• 8. This movie is a comedy view on the events happening in Russia in 1916. Being at war with Germany and Austria, Russia has no strong leadership inside the country itself. Multiple political groups and even not political, but just criminal gangs, try to take the advantage of the situation and create their own armies. So here 'The White' refer to the soldiers of The White Guard, 'The Gold-shoulder-boarded' refer to the officers of the Tsar Army, The Green - whatsoever.
• 9. The meaning is 'Every one has only one life to live'. In fact they were all recruited from simple men, mostly peasants, who didn't want to be soldiers, didn't want to die for nothing back then in those senseless times
• 10. This line and the next one in the original song sounds like this: Где я только не был, чего я не отведал/
  Березовую кашу, крапиву, лебеду
• 11. Henbane - I guess here it's just a joke. There is an expression in russian 'Have you eaten henbane too much?' that means 'have you gone crazy?'

There is only a moment

Versions: #2
Everything is ghostly
In this turbulent world,
There is only a moment,
So, don't let it go by.
There is only a moment,
Between new and old,
It's exactly why it's called life.
 
Eternal peace
Hardly will make the heart jolly,
Eternal peace
For the gray pyramids.
And for the star,
That broke away and falling,
There is only a moment,
A dazzling moment.
And for the star,
That broke away and falling,
There is only a moment,
A dazzling moment.
 
And for the star,
That broke away and falling,
There is only a moment,
A dazzling moment.
 
Let this world
Flies in the distance through centuries,
But not always
I'm along the way with it.
What I cherish,
What I risk in the world-
Is one moment,
One only moment.
 
What I cherish,
What I risk in the world-
Is one moment,
One only moment.
 
Is the happiness given
To meet or another misfortune,
There is only a moment,
So, don't let it go by.
There is only a moment,
Between past and the future,
It's exactly why it's called life.
There is only a moment,
Between past and the future,
It's exactly why it's called life.
 
Called life.
Called life.
 

Promise

I will leave and won't come back
I will leave everyone, It'll be hard
but I think I can handle it
I won't be mad
Only with tears I will ask you
not to forget to light a candle for me
And early morning
On my every fuckin' morning
A little part of me dies
A microscopic particle
Your every word and scream is killing me
Every morning conflict is torturing me
My heart became like a stone
Emotionless creature
I suffer and I know it will be worse
I will suffer until I calm down or suffocate
You are blackmailing me
You say you are degrading
You are annoying me
Saying that I am an idiot
Drug addict, degrading creature
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter anymore what you will say
I close my eyes to think
 
Chorus:
I would give you my hand but you are too far away
I would tell you a word but you can't hear
Writing few words is the only way
But my wishes can't be changed 2x
 
Verse 2
Look at yourself
Look at me
Why did it happen
And how far we've gone
We loved and faught and believed
That everything will be okay
Remember when we used to say
We're forever but you are somewhere with someone else
But you know I don't regret
I like romantic
And you like currency, cigarettes, naked body
You know you were right, there was no love
That's why it all died out
We had no conversation between us
You were afraid that I am different
But forgive me, you haven't even changed
That's why I am leaving in silence
 
Chorus
I would give you my hand but you are too far away
I would tell you a word but you can't hear
Writing few words is the only way
But my wishes can't be changed 2x
