Текст песни Немоляева - О мой застенчивый герой

Oh, my shy hero


Oh, my shy character,
you deftly avoid shame.
How long do I have played the role,
without relying on a partner!

To help your damned
I have not resorted once.
Among the scenes, in the shadows
You escaped, unobtrusive eye.

But this shame and delirium
I went before the public brutal -
unfortunately for all, all in the mind,
All alone in this role.

Oh, how you sniggered, stalls!
You do not forgive me the evidence
my shameless losses
my smile harmless.

And eagerly walked thy herds
drink from my sadness.
One, one - among shame
I stand with the fallen shoulders.

But reckless crowd
real hero is not visible.
The hero is afraid you!
Do not worry, I will not betray.

All of our role - my only role.
I lost it badly.
All of our pain - my only pain.
But how much pain. What. What.
