Прекрасное Далёко Lyrics English Translation by Oxxxymiron
From the West to the Southeast,
In the labyrinths, the skyscraper blocks,
Beyond the threshold of pain,
We wander in search of a distant beauty.
From the West to the Southeast,
In the labyrinths, the skyscraper blocks,
Beyond the threshold of pain,
We wander in search of a distant beauty.
Perhaps I’m getting younger,
Maybe I’ll lie in a grave,
The world, is it a berry drink?
Or a mournful blues?
An airy wedding waltz,
The pulse quickens,
An absurd funeral jazz,
The weight descends.
In my old age, I smoke in the stairwell,
I gaze at my fate in the cross-section like a God.
The Vasilievsky Spit on the tireless shore,
I take myself to museums,
I drag my body in a bag.
We bark loudly at the caravan,
I wear my fate like a noose,
Time goes backward,
And our mustached second will declare,
“Ladies and gentlemen, spin the drum!”
From the West to the Southeast,
In the labyrinths, the skyscraper blocks,
Beyond the threshold of pain,
We wander in search of a distant beauty.
From the West to the Southeast,
In the labyrinths, the skyscraper blocks,
Beyond the threshold of pain,
We wander in search of a distant beauty.
In camps, in strictness, in prisons,
Nothing beautiful, though distant.
The opera singer thought about the *** notes,
The huckster thought about the demand.
And I thought about my lifespan
While riding a scooter through Moscow City.
Your life and being is “AUE,”
But if you were there, you’d be amazed.
They decide and violate our rights for us,
Or we violate them, and they ask for our rights.
The rap intelligentsia is leaving,
Vladi now knows what to do in Greece.
No envy that the neighbor’s grass is greener,
Because then the neighbor will be accepted faster.
And I drag my body in a bag past the mausoleum,
North of us, only Korea.
Some children need the Avengers and Hello Kitty,
Other children need the service of a “sober parent.”
And I get drunk and write like Khayyam,
If your trash is on me, it’s a disgrace.
From the West to the Southeast,
In the labyrinths, the skyscraper blocks,
Beyond the threshold of pain,
We wander in search of a distant beauty.
From the West to the Southeast,
In the labyrinths, the skyscraper blocks,
Beyond the threshold of pain,
We wander in search of a distant beauty.
