Gomenasai
Винтаж Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Звонок, в осколки тишина
Всю ночь не спать.
Опять меня лишает сна
Моя печаль.
И лодка плавно по течению
Вдоль сомнений, не забвения
Вот ты в толпе, нет, показалось
Успокоит тихая река...

Ты прости, прости меня, сестра!

Gomenasai, Gomenasai
Gomenasai, Gomenasai

Река, возьми мою печаль
Водой укрой.
Сестра, ты знаешь как мне жаль
Прости за боль.
Ведь мы с тобой одно и тоже
Так похожи.
Но что одной из нас досталось
Успокоит тихая река...

Ты прости, прости меня, сестра!

Gomenasai, Gomenasai
Gomenasai, Gomenasai

Gomenasai, Gomenasai
Gomenasai, Gomenasai

Звонок, в осколки тишина
Silence breaks into pieces by a call

Всю ночь не спать.
Unable to sleep all night

Опять меня лишает сна
My sorrow depriving me of sleep again

Моя печаль.
My sorrow

И лодка плавно по течению
A boat smoothly floating along the current

Вдоль сомнений, не забвения
Amid doubts and not forgetting

Вот ты в толпе, нет, показалось
Here you are in the crowd, no, it seemed like it

Успокоит тихая река...
The quiet river will calm down...

Ты прости, прости меня, сестра!
Forgive me, forgive me, sister!

Река, возьми мою печаль
River, take away my sorrow

Водой укрой.
Cover it with water.
