Bezizkhodnost

A moment of silence
Becomes eternity
The emptiness is deafening
My eyes have lost all color
For grey skies is all I see

Her touch ignited me
Her voice was my comfort
When she laughed, my soul did dance
When she cried, I drowned in her embrace
Grey skies is all I see

She is a memory from long ago
Like magic, she seeps into my soul
And then the night turns to dawn
The emptiness is here to stay
For grey skies is all I see

The leaves fall off the trees
Like love has felled me to the knees
And as I crawl through life’s torments
I know all was lost, all passions spent
Grey skies is all I see


Translation

Bezizkhodnost


Mig molchaniya
Prevraschaetsya v vechnost'
Pustota oglushaet
Moi glaza ne razlichayut tsveta
Ya vizhu lish' seroe nebo
Ee prikosnovenie vosplamenyalo menya
Ee golos byl mne uspokoeniem
Kogda ona smeyalas', tancevala moya dusha
Kogda ona plakala, ya tonul v ee objatiyah
Ya vizhu lish' seroe nebo
Ona - vospominanie iz dalekogo proshlogo
Podobno volshebstvu, ona prosachivaetsya mne v dushu
A zatem noch' smenyaetsya rassvetom
Pustota otstaetsya so mnoy
Ved' ya vizhu lish' seroe nebo
Opadayut listia s dereviev
Podobno lubvi, chto postavila menya na koleni
I ya propolzayu skvoz' muki zhizni
Ya znayu, vse poteryano, vsya strast' rastrachena
Ya vizhu lish' seroe nebo

It is really great! Do you know the Russian language? Your Russian is very good. And the idea of the poem is so sad... But it is true in some cases.
