Текст песни Артём Гельман - Владимиру Высоцкому

Life is an alphabet, I am somewhere
Already in "tse", "che", "sha", "shche",
I will leave this summer
In a crimson cloak.

V. Vysotsky

Life flashed brightly like a comet
And you did a lot, in general ...
We need you! Don't leave in summer
In an exquisite crimson cloak.

How your veins strained from screaming,
And burning sweat runs down my cheeks.
Please save your strength
And death, perhaps, will pass by you.

It will be difficult for us without you, believe me, -
There will be a huge cry throughout the country.
You do not need to try on the symbol of death -
This is the most notorious cloak.

But now, alas, a carriage has been given to you,
In paradise, the apostle clangs the key.
You left - as predicted - in the summer,
With a wave of a crimson cloak in the distance.
