Текст песни Isibasi Miuki - Я помню тот Ванинский порт

I remember that Vanino port
And the look of the steamers is gloomy,
As we walked aboard the ladder
Into the cold gloomy holds.

Not a song, but a plaintive cry
From each chest escaped:
"Goodbye forever, mainland!"
The steamer roared, struggled.

And the fog was thickening in the sea,
The abyss of the sea was boiling,
Stood in the way of Magadan -
The capital of the Kolyma region.

Convicts suffered from rolling,
Embracing like siblings.
Only sometimes from the tongue
Dull curses broke.

Damn you, Kolyma,
What is called the edge of the planet.
You will go crazy against your will -
There is no going back.

Seven hundred kilometers of taiga.
No villages are visible anywhere here.
Cars don't go here.
Reindeers are running stumbling.

Here death made friends with scurvy,
Crammed with infirmaries.
In vain this spring too
I expect greetings from my beloved.

She does not write, and does not wait,
And he doesn't read my letters,
You won't come to meet me at the station -
He will count for shame and shame.

Goodbye mother and wife
And you, my little children.
Know the bitter cup to the bottom
I'll have to drink in the world.
