Текст песни Владимир Высоцкий - Баллада о бане

Ballad of the bath (Grace or blessing ...)

Grace or blessing
Send down on your henchmen -
God give them bathe,
Take a dip in the holy of holies!

All the vices, sins and sorrows,
Indifference, harmony and dispute
Steam, which is granted by only here,
Kicks like a bullet out of the pores.

All that worries you, evaporate
And rise up to heaven,
Well you, clean, must come down -
Couples with sins straightened himself.

Do not seek first time to the soul -
Is not equal to the purified washing.
Need to flog a broom soul
It is necessary to evaporate the stench of it.

Healing of ulcers and deformities
Will shower from the life-giving waters -
It is like the return of primogeniture,
Or not - the draining of wetlands.

There are no naked - no need to be ashamed,
So that the curve of the hand leg.
Here - similarity Eden:
Skip to those who stripped naked.

And, in the dressing room reset things
Forget all dressed her -
Equally whisk whips,
How are you there or stick out his chest!

All are here united wealth
All easily tolerate the heat,
Here freedom and equality with the Brotherhood
Feel in pitch pair.

Exhausts steam generation to
And baptism take Verify
Lei us his holy water
And from barbarism is free!

(1971)
