Cried and Begged
My eyes cried and begged
Just as gulls begged
When missed the last wave
Flew high and absent
Behind the frontier
My eyes cried and the years
Fell apart in front of my eyes
While I am spinning, spinning
And cold will kill me
If the dawn came late and
Rooster - fell into sleep and my
Mom forgot to light up "tanour"
Oh fatigue beds,
Oh swarms Gulls,
Oh the smell of hot bread
How "tanour" extinguished!
How my Mom died!
How light turned off, in the house?
