(Kogda muzhchina umiraiet
S nim izchezaiet vsio:
Ego pervyi sneg,
Ego pervyi pocelui,
Ego pervaia draka [1] )
(When a man dies,
Everything disappears with him:
His first snow,
His first kiss,
His first fight. [1])
chiisai koro kiita hanashi wo
ima omoidashite-ta
supuutoniku[2] no raikaken
namae wa nante itta no ka na?
anata no senaka wo mitsume nagara
yatto kizuita
moo aenaitte koto
I was just recalling
A story I heard when I was small
The laika dog on Sputnik[2]
What was its name again?
While gazing at you from behind
I finally realized
That we will never see each other again
kurooka kurooka[3]
boku wa saki ni iku yo
kurooka kurooka
kitto kaette kite
Kloka Kloka[3]
I'll[4] be there ahead of you
Kloka Kloka
Surely you'll come back
kuroomu iro no kapuseru
honto ni aishite-ru no ni
nan'no tame ni to ka
dooshite toka
kangaerarenai moo
A chrome-coloured capsule
I love you truly yet
For what
Or why
I can't think anymore
nanokabun no sanso to mizu
dareka no tsuyoi negai to
supuutoniku no raika-ken
nidoto akanai tobira ga shimaru
anata no shiranai tooi basho de
kurashite-ku nante
onaji kimochi ni narenai nante
With enough air and water for seven days
And someone's uncompromising wishes
The laika dog on Sputnik
Doors which will never again open now close
To think that I must go on living
In some distant place unfamiliar to you
That we can never feel the same things
kuroomu iro no kapuseru
kon'na ni aishite-ru no ni
mienai yami e to
ano mabushii toki mo kieru
A chrome-coloured capsule
I love you so much yet
Into an unseen darkness
Even those brilliant times fade away
kurooka kurooka
boku wa
kurooka kurooka
kitto
Kloka Kloka
I'll be
Kloka Kloka
Surely
sora kara yami e to
suikomarete shimau
mienai yami e to
atatakatta yuki no hi mo kiete-ku
From the sky into darkness
Everything is swallowed away
Into an unseen darkness
Even that warm snowy day goes on fading
kuroomu iro no kapuseru
honto ni aishite-ru no ni
nan'no tame ni to ka
dooshite toka
kangaerarenai moo
A chrome-coloured capsule
I love you truly yet
For what
Or why
I can't think anymore
