güzel bir melnitsa şarkısı. özellikle davul girdikten sonrasını çok seviyorum. link

sözlerinin okunuşu şu şekilde:

zakat raskinulsya krestom poverkh dolin vershiny grez;
ty travy zavyazal uzlom i vplel v nikh pryad' moikh volos.
ty slal v chuzhie sny to sumasshedshee videnie strany,
gde dni svetly ot sveta zvezd.

gospodinom gornykh dorog nazovu tebya;
kto skazal, chto kholoden sneg?
pereval proydu i porog, pereputie,
perekrest'e kamennykh rek.

ya ukhozhu vosled ne znavshim, chto znachit slovo "strakh".
o, ne s toboy li vse propavshie, pogibshie v gorakh,
chto obreli pokoy tam, gde plyashut vetry pod tvoey rukoy
na grani yasnogo utra?

gospodinom gornykh dorog nazovu tebya, oblaka
kruzhat staey pered grozoy.
nasha krov' ukhodit v pesok, pozabud' ee, i ona
prorastet tugoyu lozoy.

ya khotela ostat'sya s toboy,
ya uzhe uspela posmet'.
pakhnet snegom, prozrachnaya bol' -
to li dal', to li vys', to li smert'...

pust' ukroet tsepi sledov moikh iney,
chtob nikto nayti ikh ne mog.
kto teper' prochtet podo l'dom tvoe imya,
gospodina gornykh dorog?..

ingilizce çevirisi ise şu şekilde:

lord of mountain roads

sunset spread out crosswise over the peaks of the valley of dreams.
you tied grass into a knot and wove a lock of my hair into it.
you sent, in strange dreams, that crazy vision of a land
where days are bright with starlight

i will call you ‘lord of mountain roads.’
who said that snow is cold?
i will go through the pass and the rock ledge crossroads
the junction of rivers of stone

i am leaving in the tracks of those unaware what the word ‘fear’ means.
oh, isn't everyone with you who got lost, who died in the mountains
who found peace there, where the winds dance under your hand
on the verge of a clear morning?

i will call you ‘lord of mountain roads.’
clouds swirl in clusters before the storm.
our blood is escaping into the sand
forget it and it will sprout a stiff willow wand

i wanted to stay with you
i have already dared to. (lit: managed to dare)
unclouded pain smells like snow -
is it the distance, the height or death?

may frost cover my trail of footprints
so that no one will have been able to find them.
who reads your name under the ice now
lord of mountain roads?
