There Is No Me By Igor Nikolaev

There is no me 
where on the sand I cannot find your trace today
where white bird that is very sad
where white bird that is very sad has longing near me at the bay.
I'm only there
with trembling sound close to the pier of wanted lips
where swifts of your eyes are around
where swifts of your eyes are around, they glide the sky like little ships.

There is no me
where smoke of hair won't hide the white day with the haze
where tender deer will wipe with care
where tender deer will wipe with care the amber's tears from pine's face.
I'm only there
where you with hope sometimes are looking at the door
and like a kid you cannot stop
and like a kid you cannot stop
to sculpt a snowman more and more.

There is no me
where nighty steamer brought its hooter with a tear
where roof of heaven caught the thought
where roof of heaven caught the thought: it's like an orphan without you, dear.
I'm only there
where there's no me around, you cannot see, no way,
You know without you there's no doubt
You know without you there's no doubt I can't live even single day.

P.S. This is my translation of poem (song) by Igor Nikolaev.
