Текст песни Олег Погудин - Я вновь повстречался с Надеждой

Okudzhava

I met again with Hope - a pleasant meeting.
She lives all the same - that I was far away.
All the same from her happy poplin dress
still burning her eyes looking to the century ...
You are our sister, we are your silent brothers,
and it is hard to believe that life is short.

Did you have promised us?
We draw them themselves, while young,
we ourselves choose and songs, and destiny,
and woe to those who will dare impede us at the wrong time ...
You are our sister, we are your hasty judge
We were fortunate, but disappeared from view.

When would love and hope to tie together,
Whatever, it's hard to imagine there was a picture!
What would we have passed in vain flour
and only fine flour would show on the brow ...
You are our sister. Why so long we were apart?
We kept her youth, but old age has brought.
