Текст песни Б.Окуджава - Молитва Франсуа Вийона

While the Earth is still spinning, the light is still bright
Lord, give to everyone that he does not have:
Give the wise head, give the coward to the coward,
Give the happy money ... And do not forget about me.

While the Earth is still spinning - Lord, your power! -
Let the powerless one tear to power
Give a respite to the generous, even before the end of the day.
Cain give repentance ... And do not forget about me.

I know: you know how, I believe in your wisdom,
As the soldier believes that he lives in paradise,
How each ear believes your quiet speeches
As we ourselves believe, not knowing what we are doing!

Lord, my God, my green-eyed one!
While the Earth is still spinning, and it’s strange to herself,
While she still has enough time and fire,
May you give everyone a little ... And do not forget about me.
