about

Si vous saviez, passants attirés
Par d’autres regards charmants
Que le mien, que de feu j’ai brûlé,
Que de vie j’ai vécu pour rien.

Que d’ardeur, que de fougue donnée
Pour une ombre soudaine ou un bruit…
Et mon coeur, vainement enflammé,
Dépeuplé, retombant en cendres.

Ô, les trains s’envolant dans la nuit
Qui emportent nos rêves de gare…
Sauriez-vous tout cela, même alors,
Je le sais, vous ne pourriez tout savoir.

Pourquoi ma parole est si brusque
Dans l’éternelle fumée de cigarette
Et combien de tristesse noire
Gronde sous mes cheveux clairs.

- Marina Tsvétaïeva

lyrics

" My eyes are covered by the sand
That’s how all my mornings began
Seagulls are shouting acrosse the dawn
Blurry waves that’s all I draw

My hands are covered by the snow
This ray of light passes through my window
A little waltz with the pale moon
But my feet are too cold to move

All those years
All those fears
I should know
Warm wind will blow
But I miss it so

My head is covered by echoe
Of diamonds in the gutter, they flow
Even if dark shadows follow me
I’m not scared of what I see
‘Cause

All those years
All those fears
I should know
Warm wind will blow
But I miss it so "
