Текст песни Юрий Визбор - Надеюсь видеть вас счастливыми

I hope to see you happy,
Not a young beauty beautiful
On noisy meetings - silent,
With children - talented, playful.

I hope your adventure,
Fires and your Metelitsa
Not led you to the conclusion
That nothing much will change.

I hope to see you, scraping
Tight dirt from boots worn,
Seditious eye disturbing
Bigots and critics uninvited.

I hope your children live the
And marches brave path,
Grow horrible, Lobastov
And plotting something important.

     I hope to see you tired,
     Gray, with cheeks sunken,
     With sockets sad ovals
     And with unprecedented designs.

     I hope to see you calm
     To disease and war,
     Before the years of separation,
     Before the doubts and torments.

     I hope because I believe,
     That our time does not end
     And all that befall us,
     Leads us to the road correct.

     I hope that a shooting sheets
     Does not mean we predsnezhiya,
      And just ripped on the occasion
      Summer thunderstorms and fresh.

     November 5, 1973
