2000 Years (2000 Лет)

I’m thinking of the fact that rivers sneak their way to the sea.
That in a drop of dew that drips into my palm, I will see
How slowly all the rays melt into the transparent sunrise
And how two thousand years approximates the span of our lives.
REFRAIN:
You will gently touch me in my sleep.
In the silence, the stars start to breathe.
I will sense that your presence is near
Even after two thousands of years.
I’m thinking of the fact that the sky sneaks its way into me
And I reflect myself and, far away, your image I see.
So tell me what, out loud, before was always held back unsaid
Again, I’ll fly away, again you’ll wait for me to come back.
REFRAIN
Lay me down upon the wind, for a blink, close my eyelids
All my doubts I am forgetting, for a moment, I am melting,
Soaring far away…
I’m thinking of the things, the secrets that the stars cannot keep
I think of lullabies that they will whisper to me in sleep.
One day, you’ll think of me. Then, I will read your words in the sky
I’ll wait, even if they take some two thousand years to arrive.
REFRAIN
