Текст песни Белла Ахмадулина - желаю миновать печали

From the depths of my misery
I pray dear man.
So be happy this year ,
and the next , and forever .

I have not managed to grasp
simple ordinances luck
trouble to prevent it
I try anyway.

And do not imagine the joy of the same ,
blocking his shoulders ,
he and his whole family
I wish to pass grief.

So be happy and rich.
Under the burden of high awards
Let raises his glass
for the health of gay guests ,

not knowing how random
I beat her head against the ground ,
I am praying for him - in broad failures
I set aside this autumn.
