Текст песни Владимир Шандриков - Сила тайная есть у истоков любви...

They and we

Recorded in Odessa 1977 ...

There is a secret power at the origins of love,
Like a miracle she is unearthly!
Someone knocked out a swan from a berdank,
And there were two of them across the lake.

The second, crazy in the blue blue,
Falling lumpy, flying higher and higher
Hitting a wing, he called her behind him,
But she answered more and more quietly.

"He circled for so long, he shouted so wildly:
Why doesn't it take off ?! "
He was not shot and did not know this,
As lead cools under the heart.

Feeling all the trouble with his bird's heart,
So he cried not like a bird - angrily,
The sky around it became unbearably empty
And the wings became unnecessary.

And, gaining height, he decided to fold them,
He went into a deadly tailspin.
I fell next to her, realizing that to live -
It would be too cruel.

There is a secret power! He's twelve circles
Performed over a sinister land,
And a harsh drat in twelve rows
That flight pierced my soul.

The secret power is also with us, the people,
Only there are so few mysteries in life!
We are 100 volt in love, and the swan birds
Kilowatts of spiritual heat.

And I will not understand yet another one:
From what? Why? - But forever
Man is like a wolf to man,
And the beasts are human among themselves ...
