(Translated from Russian 'Благослови тебя Господь...')
How much sorrow is in this world:
Sadness and evil, betrayal and lies.
And in my flat when I'm alone
I wish I were in paradise.
The way to their power I dont want to give.
And I pray God for only that
One drop of innocence would live
In such a world, strange and bad.
You are so close to me
Like a road to a traveller, like sun to world,
Like an anchor to a ship.
Anxiety lives now in my soul.
A die and love, I cry and grieve.
What shall I do in future? I don't know.
How to enjoy life, to trust? My heart has sunk.
My soul won't love another anymore,
When wine of deception was drunk.
God will bless you, who didn't distinguish between
Poison and divine drink.
Still loving you I take my leave.
At the last glance my heart will shrink.
(October, 1994)
