Текст песни Аркадий Северный - Черная роза

That black rose is the emblem of sadness
I brought you that memorable evening.
We both sat and were both silent
And I wanted to cry, but there were no tears.

Guitar and violin playing in the orchestra
A half-drunk night restaurant is noisy.
So what are you looking at with a sad smile
To your unfinished glass of champagne.

I once loved gypsy dances
And a couple of bay semi-wild horses.
That time passed, flew by like in a fairy tale
And here I am without affection, without your affection.

Cry if you want by the black curtain
Hiding my face in a blue veil
We have not found our happiness to this day
And there is nothing to stop our sorrow with.

Oh, how I would like to start all over again
Forget everything that was - and start again.
To drink with a tear, kiss your eyes
And kiss your burning lips.
