YOUR EYES

5. АНГЛИЙСКАЯ ВЕРСИЯ (botash m.)

YOUR EYES

I've walked the earth, I've been so far,
From distant towns to foreign lands.
But never found my northern star,
To guide me through these unknown lands.

You stand so tall, you burn so bright,
No earthly flame can reach this height.
In frozen night, a fallen star —
I don't know how to match your light.

You're slender, graceful, carved from snow,
Like a white swan where still waters flow.
I long to take you by the hand,
To feel the ground beneath us shake.

Your soul is gentle, rare, and true,
A light no storm or age could undo.
The only path that leads to you
Is one your heart can't comprehend.

Your eyes, my love, are two clear diamonds,
They guard the fire no hand could hold.
How can I see behind them?
They show the wars your soul's been through.

Your eyes are like a quiet sea,
A depth no living man has known.
I'd give my life to be with you
Just to be lost within their stone.

Your hair hangs like velvet shackles,
It draws me near and won't let go.
I've lost my mind through nights and rains,
A moth drawn to the candle's glow.

So turn your head and look at me,
With those two burning diamond eyes.
Before I fade back in the dark,
Give me one smile before I die.

I'll travel north, where cold bites deep,
Where endless snow hides all the tracks.
And even there, in frozen sleep,
Your gaze still splits the frozen ice.

I dream about your quiet call,
I hear you through the frozen wall.
In that mute land of ice and frost,
I chase your fire that burns so bright.

I loved, I love, I'll love forever,
Some loves don't break — they only grow.
But tell me which road leads to you,
What path will finally bring me home?

I loved, I love, I'll love forever,
Your name is carved within my chest.
But silent miles lie east and west,
And leave my weary soul without a rest.

Your eyes, my love, are two clear diamonds,
They guard the fire no hand could hold.
How can I see behind them?
They show the wars your soul's been through.

Your eyes are like a quiet sea,
A depth no living man has known.
I'd give my life to be with you
Just to be lost within their stone.

And I will live beside your light,
Until the last light leaves the sky.

And I will live beside your light,
Until the last light leaves the sky.
