Alina Orlova - Golubi

Oh, you're pigeons, you're dove-coloured, dove-coloured wings.

Oh, where have you been and how far, and what had you seen?

Well, we have been on the distance, on the farewell,

Where the soul was leaving the white body.

Was leaving, was separating, was weeping bitterly.

Was leaving and separating, was weeping bitterly.

How will you, body, rotting in the earth forever?

And how will I, a soul, go far, bear hard

Terrible sins and very terrible eternal pain?
