Текст песни Булат Окуджава - Первое послевоенное танго

First post-war tango
(Tango from "Music Arbat Court")
(Post-war tango)

Vyach. Kondratyev

Girls went into our yard in the Watch Dawn,
They surrounded us and buzzed.
We were the first to have them, and the last,
And we are pushing their buzz to it.

Fate was generous: hoped threw
Yes, life in his own way flowed - I did not ask me.
I drank from a cup of blue - I tried to pusher ...
By chance, the cup dropped - suddenly August ended.

The courtyard knew, lit up like a choir under shots,
Some Lenka Korolev shouted to us something ...
Love Ile Zloba Our lot? Did you fall out?
Start, my girls! Farewell, infantry!

Crown our boots grass lawn,
Everything is spinning along the pipe for garrison.
Blessed the times of the cinema of the state
I did not come out eternally love - but only seasonal.

I dream your names, I do not remember the appearance:
Which dresser dreamed of stratching you?
I hear your voices, I do not hear the response,
But each other can not be renounced.

I guess only for war - yes it was not fulfilled.
Life faded forever - came up with the answer ...
Swift, my girls, about what I remembered,
Do not leave the yard, there is no happiness in this!

1973.
